Learning Self Defense For Women Can Increase Your Confidence
In certain societies, women are taught very early on that fighting is not for girls.
Some men look at women as being the "weaker sex".
Attackers take advantage of this mindset by preying on women, thinking they will not fight back and defend themselves.
Now is the time to change that mindset.
More and more women are taking self defense classes in their local communities, creating buddy systems so they aren't walking at night alone and carrying self defense weapons in their purse or in their hand.
You can buy a cheap product like Mace or pepper spray.
It can be very effective against most people.
If you want something more disabling to an attacker, you can buy a stun gun or a C2 Taser.
Make sure you check with your state regarding laws dealing with self defense weapons.
Some states either ban or restrict the use of stun guns and tasers.
Form a plan now before you end up in a dangerous situation.
Learn how to make a decision quickly as to when to use or not use defense moves to protect yourself.
You might make the decision that running to safety is the best thing to do.
Taking a class on how to protect yourself will help you to make these decisions quickly.
The class will also help you to use defense moves the right way.
By practicing these moves, you become more efficient at using them.
If you don't have time to go to a class, you can also buy books or DVDs that will show you how to use the same moves.
You just have to be more diligent in practicing them on your own time.
When you learn these techniques and carry a weapon for safety, you will have more self confidence knowing that you can protect yourself and the chances of you becoming a victim are dramatically reduced as a result.
