Wow!!! My mum used to use the last technique with me when I misbehaved . I didn't know she was an aikido master😂😂😂

Well done. I'm getting weaker and older each year so in the last couple unprovoked attacks by thugs I let my revolver aimed at center mass speak for me quite eloquently but lessons noted and realize a sidearm isn't available for a lot of the world. Stay safe.

Thank you for posting this video. I have practiced three different martial arts, but I still find it very useful to know 2 or 3 effective strikes / moves and become as proficient at them as you can. When something happens in the real world (outside of the dojo) you want as natural of a reaction as possible to stop the attack. What I don't agree with (my opinion, I'm not saying anyone is wrong, you have to do what you feel is right) is the "I don't want to hurt them" approach. You state this towards the beginning of the video, and you also use the phrase "nice and gentle" when describing the throat strike. You even change your wording about half way through the video (about the 3:30 mark) when you state "another thing that will save your life is the kick in the nuts!". The key phrase is "save your life". If you feel your life is in danger, why are you going to be worried about hurting the attacker, gently striking him? It is a different story if it is a family member or someone you know, but if you are attacked out in public by someone you have never met, and they are obviously trying to seriously hurt you, I'm sorry but I am not going for the "kinder, gentler" method.

To be completely truthful, in a real self-defense situation I never did, nor will I ever, take care not to hurt an attacker or attackers. In fact, I will hurt and at least injure any attacker. Years ago I gave a lot of self-defense courses for women. I definitely taught them to hurt any attacker.

life... " If you're in a defense situation like that and you're concerned with NOT hurting the attacker too much, you better run. No need for your defense moves.

This video is okay for some situations where you know your stuck in a fight. It is reliable with an instructor that has good experience in self defense. People should learn from this video. 😇💪👌

My friend.....if only like minded folk knew how to do the simplest of moves to protect themselves! I commend you for bringing this topic, into the forefront of ordinary folks lives...BIG thumbs up from me!

I also think it is very important if you can practice this regularly so it becomes second nature to you. You are really funny and I enjoyed/learned a lot from this video.

If a person comes up to you and wants to assault you, you yell, look over there and when he looks you run like hell.

One tight slap in the street makes one forget those techniques 🙅🏾‍♂️

Iron Mike says"Everyone has a plan, until they get hit in the mouth"

The attack to the nuts saved my life when an ex was beating me to a pulp..he was an ex boxer and a tough guy...but he had the cheek to complain to his sister's that I hurt his nuts while I ended up in a hospital bed lol but the nut attack really does work :)

Points to remember first. 1/ No one is to big to run away from. 2/ It hurts even more the day after. 3/ Only If you have absolutely no chance of escape should hit him first. 4/ If you do have to take action, it has to be a 100% explosive effort. 5/ Forget body punches or wrestling on the floor, it's nose, throat and eyes and then leave quickly. 6/ Fear can be you friend because you can turn it easily into instant aggression. I must be the mildest guy in town but when a giant of a chap once put me in this situation, I was even more surprised than him when he was the one left screaming on the floor.

The throat/neck blows are lethal

Just perfect, I am French and my English is not fluent but I anderstood everything cause your English (I suppose from Great Britain) is really easy, pedagogical and intelligible. You are very calm during the demonstration, that is perfect !!!

More great tutorials and practical tips from the Aikidoflow guys. Keep up the good work!

"I'll beat them with Judo. Judo know if I got a knife. Judo know if I got a gun."
