Objective / Goal of the activity

To teach the people involved the practical self defence basics in realistic scenarios.

Description

A Karate expert and a Wing Chun expert explained and taught practical techniques in realistic scenarios.

The techniques were not focused on using strength, but rather on making efficient use of the human body.

We started with a small warming up during which the basics of self defence (low centre of gravity, high guard, awareness of surroundings) were taught through experience.

Then we trained the techniques in pairs.

Finally we discussed scenarios involving weapons (knife and gun), but without practicing this.

Result of the activity

Most people became quite enthusiastic about self defence and were happy to have attended.
