That's just not realistic! Yes, when you first learn self-defense techniques, it's natural to stand still. This approach gives you time to understand what an attack feels like and allows you to coordinate your body movements. But that's just the first step! Remember this advice from Sifu Randy-- slow to learn, fast to test! In other words, once you feel your understanding of a self-defense technique is solid, it's time to start speeding up and adding more pressure. The first step should be to turn your static attack into a moving attack. Whether it's a push, punch, or grab, very few attackers are going to just stand there. They are gong to move! Plus, consider that as an attacker rushes at you, a strong punch or palm heel to the face may not be enough to stop them. It's more likely that they will keep moving forward and collide with you. Remember Conor McGregor versus Jose Aldo? Conor knocked Jose out cold, but he still got hit! Jose threw a punch as he fell forward and connected. It just happens that Conor was smart enough to get out of the way of his falling opponent. You be smart, too! Don't just stand there when you practice. Ask your partner to rush into your space. The next step will be to start adding resistance. How much pressure you add is up to you! THANKS FOR WATCHING!
