In Martial Arts and Self Defense, students and teachers look to gain a maximum effect, a maximum advantage over their opponents using many methods, one such method is by knowledge of such areas considered by many as “Deadly Pressure Points“.

These extremely sensitive areas of the body will give the ability to cause intense pain quickly and effectively and will create obvious advantages.

In modern day use the outcome does not have to be deadly, pressure points are more so used to gain a significant advantage by producing significant pain in the area when struck or simply when a force is applied to that area.

These areas can be used to gain a significant advantage through intense pain but also you can use them to make the opponent move in a specific direction by applying the force to a specific target. This becomes very practical when applying take-downs (throws) or Hold-Downs (submissions).

Pressure points allow the person applying a technique to use a minimal amount of force to gain a significant effect.

Police and Security Forces throughout the world, rely on these potentially deadly pressure points to maximize the effect of their own techniques. PPCT has become a popular addition to their curriculum.

Deadly Pressure Points exist all over the body and can be accessed in many ways by using many different tools of the body. The fingers, fists, elbows, knees and feet are all ultra valuable tools in accessing these areas effectively.

Another area that can create a significant advantage is the knowledge of motor nerve points, with effective striking ability, this creates the ability to temporarily disable the functionality of a limb, by traumatizing the nerves that supply it.

So in summary, the extreme sensitive areas of the human body should not necessarily be considered as deadly pressure points, however, they can be used to gain a significant advantage by helping you to maximize your effect with a minimal amount of effort.

In Self Defense, Testicles Strikes are the extent of many first-time students knowledge of where and how they could strike an attacker if faced with a situation that requires Personal protection.

At Fightwize, we oftentimes teach Basic Self Defense Courses to people with very little or absolutely no previous training. It is amazing at how most people’s knowledge of weak and sensitive areas around the body is so very limited.

Needless to say, people walk away from courses in amazement, after discovering that there are so many other effective targets on the body and so many simple strikes that they can easily recall, even under stress.

Hit and Run -
Hit and Run is one of the simplest strategies available, knowing where to strike and how to strike to gain the maximum effect using only gross motor techniques. These are simple body movements that virtually all people are capable of performing. This is such an important fact to but we won’t go into that just now, let’s stay focused for a couple of minutes.

Create Distance -
Such strategies can gain you time, time can gain you distance, putting distance between you and the attacker could be all that is required. Knowing how and where to strike could also be disabling enough to finish a situation right there.

OK, so in Self Defense, testicles strikes could well be effective enough. It is a painful area to be struck in many ways with the hands, feet, knees and but there are many disadvantages if these are your only options. Firstly men are very protective of that area and can move with lightning speed to evade or block strikes in that area. Secondly, it may not be an area that is open to strikes, depending on the situation you are in. The area could also be protected with a groin protector or what if the attacker was another woman?

You can see that there are many If’s, But’s and Maybe’s so give yourself some other options.

Maximum Effect -
The body is full of ultra sensitive pressure points and extremely effective motor nerve points that are so sensitive or painful when struck , this would have an immediate effect on the recipient.

Such knowledge is so powerful, knowing that you have so many options to stop an attacker dead in his tracks.

Personal Alarms are very handy little devices to assist in personal safety.

They are small and inexpensive and can be used for either personal or medical emergency.

A Medical Emergency – Someone with a medical condition may find it useful to carry something that is going to attract attention quickly if they need immediate assistance.

Personal Alarms are designed to make a great deal of noise in order to attract attention, the ones that we use come complete with a lanyard, a keychain clip and a also a breaker wire that allows the Personal Alarms to be used a Door or Window Alarm.

An Attacker’s Deterrent – Personal Alarms can also be used if you were to become the intended victim of a physical attack, a personal alarm can be used to attract attention, which can also attract help.

In a high stress situation, like that of an attack when your body is experiencing an adrenalin overload, there are already enough feelings to deal with, such as your pounding heart, shaking body, tunneled vision, impaired hearing, and mind going blank. Not only could you lose your ability to shout but it is not possible for most people to carry out any fine motor skills at all, so a simple device that is easily activated by pulling a cord is a good option.

Criminals do not want to be hurt or caught, a personal alarm can be enough to at least deter the attacker if he feels that chance of attracting other people to the scene as this cause an unexpected complication to the situation that they do not want.

An excellent Gift Idea - Personal Alarms can make ideal little Christmas or Birthday gifts if you are looking for something a little different.

Personal Alarms have been used by people in many different ways – Teachers, Realtors, Probation Officers, Hotel Workers, Cleaners. It’s not just good for work, many people feel safer to have them when travelling or even just out shopping as you just never know when it may come in handy.

Always keep the Personal Alarm where it can be accessed very easily and quickly.

Many people have recently contacted me to see where they can buy Personal Alarms. They are available at:

There are many elements of training that must be included in your program, each one of them as important as the next -

• Conditioning
• Strength Training
• Technical Skill Training
• Grappling
• Sparring
• Drills

By using good sparring gear whilst training, unnecessary injuries will be avoided. This is especially important as most of your sparring will be carried out in the period approaching your competition and you do not want to be carrying injuries into the arena with you.

Depending on your specific Art, some of the following items will be useful -

• Mouthguard
• Head Guard
• Sparring Gloves
• Grappling Gloves
• Groin Protector
• Foot Pads
• Chest Guard

Sparring and Grappling can both be trained at varying levels of intensity but sparring gear will certainly help you to train more safely.

 At Jiu Jitsu Calgary we place a great deal of emphasis on Self Defense Classes for Kids. Our sessions vary from the youngest group at 5-8 years old, the Junior Group at 9-12 years old and at present the 13 years and up join in with the adults.

Our School is growing at a good rate and it won’t be long before we create another group for the Teens 13-15 years old.

Our Self Defense classes for kids, incorporate some basic Martial Arts Techniques, Safety Awareness and a load of fun. The older the kids get, the sessions become longer and more intense but still keeping that fun element.

A Long Term Activity – It is in everybody’s interest to keep the youngsters interested, by doing this we help create a healthy appetite for Martial arts and the children will stay involved for many years to come. Giving kids focus, something to concentrate their efforts in and see continual improvement in their skills.

We have many adult Instructors available to help so the children get the individual attention that’s required to ensure technical skills are carried out correctly.

Benefits of Martial Arts for Kids – There are so many benefits for children to get involved in such an activity, from developing mental focus, increasing confidence, improving co-ordination, learning respect, discipline and self-discipline. These are all qualities that can only help both in childhood and later on in life.

It is highly likely that such ability will help your children in school with the improved focus, self-discipline and respect.

Parental Relief - It is a relief for many parents as their children grow up, knowing that they are equipped with some potentially life saving physical skills, together with a discipline to use them wisely. Our Self Defense Classes for Kids also create an opportunity for many children to meet and make new friends.

It is so important for children to get a good start in life and after all, they are our future so it is our responsibility to give them the best start possible, helping them to maximize on that potential that everyone has within, yet so few take advantage of both physically and mentally.

Health and Fitness for Kids – The health and Fitness benefits are also very important in a world where physical activity in children seems to be limited to the TV and Computer Games for many. Courses will help develop Children’s Fitness, strength and flexibility.

Equally as important (especially with the younger kids) is the Safety Awareness factor that we incorporate into the Self Defense Classes for kids, this covers many areas, more so for a child in relation to an adult. What is a stranger, what to do if lost, what to do if approached by a stranger, grabbed by an adult stranger, and so on. Some very basic knowledge and skills that all children should have yet often times do not.

We really believe in the Self Defense Classes for kids that we have developed and with the time, thought and effort that are continually applied in their development, they are only going to get better and better.
