1.

Be Aware - Act Smart - Be Safe

2.

Don't fight with the attacker or don't try to win just try to escape and avoid the situation you may be hurt badly while fighting or you may loose unless you have a friend's company.

3.

Look confident. People can spot a “victim posture” a mile away. Heads up, shoulders back, stand straight, and look those you meet on the trail in the eye.

4.

Be alert to the people around you. If they look questionable, move on to another place. Be judgmental.

5.

Always keep your distance when walking past strangers on the street or in dark areas.

6.

GET A CELL PHONE You better have a cell phone to call for help.

7.

If a robber asks for your wallet and/or purse, DO NOT HAND IT HIM. Toss it away from you.... chances are that he is more interested in your wallet and/or purse than you, and he will go for the wallet/purse. RUN IN THE OTHER DIRECTION!

8.

few notes about getting into your car in a parking lot, or parking garage:(1) Be aware: look around you, look into your car, at the passenger side floor, and in the back seat. (2) If you are parked next to a big van, enter your car from the passenger door. Most attack their victims by pulling them into their vans while the women are attempting to get into their cars. (3) Look at the car parked on the driver's side of your vehicle, and the passenger side. If a male is sitting alone in the seat nearest your car, you may want to walk back into the mall, or work, and get a guard/policeman to walk you back out. IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY.

9.

ALWAYS take the elevator instead of the stairs. (Stairwells are horrible places to be alone and the perfect crime spot).

10.

If the predator has a gun and you are not under his control, ALWAYS RUN! The predator will only hit you (a running target) 4 in 100 times; And even then, it most likely WILL NOT be a vital organ. RUN!

The people of Okinawa created karate as a method of self-defence, by blending the native art of ('Te') and the imported Quan Fa. Today the art is mainly taught as a sport and a 'way of life' - that is practice for practice's sake. There are however a huge range of techniques 'hidden' in the kata of karate which are entirely useful as self defence.

The uses of close-in techniques (Oyo) and kata applications (Bunkai) are what we specialized in. We make full use of punches, kicks and strikes, as well as the rarer locks, throws, groundwork and grappling usually associated with other arts.

The self-defence moves of karate are available for use by men and women of any age or build. The use of pressure points, nerve attacks, waveforms, 5 element theory, yin-yang and quadrant theory make our techniques useful even for smaller people against larger aggressors.

The prime criteria that prevents karate practitioners from becoming thugs is the philosophy of self-defence that underscores the whole practice. Karate is never to be used for instigating violence, only in the prevention of harm to ones self or family, or in the assistance of law and order.
