Self Defense and Empowerment: Techniques for Women’s Safety

Hi, how you doing?
I’m Holly. I’m seafood Garrett.
Nice to meet you. Hi Bunny.
Nice to meet you. How you doing?
Thank you. I feel like if someone attacked us,
we wouldn’t know how to what to do.
Our mantra is violence is the key.
So if. If you are like in trouble.
Haha,
this is my kind of thing. I’m gonna just give you one basic, uh,
self defense technique against somebody who just throws a punch at you.
I’m gonna teach you what’s called the pox out and a punch.
This is the versus a straight punch to the face.
So your right hand is gonna go ahead and pop. Good.
Take this hand and punch to the face.
Pops out and punch. And then I’m gonna be the assassin.
I’m gonna come to each one of you ladies and punch for you.
What you’re gonna do, take this hand and you’re gonna clear out.
No thumb. Don’t wanna break your thumb.
And then punch right here in my hand.
Good job. Alright,
who’s next? Right here.
Okay. Matter of fact,
let me get a it. Cause he knows you’re an army.
He knows I know. I see it here.
He sees your body, he’s like, oh,
she ain’t playing around. Well,
since you have nails, what you can do?
This part of the hand is very strong.
You could go ahead and jam that part of the arm
or the hand right into the person’s face.
Into the nose. We’re gonna add to the drills.
Pop style punch.
Elbow. Right to the body,
right to the neck. There you go.
So that’s gonna be my face. Pop.
Pop, elbow.
Good. Now we elbow.
We’re gonna reverse the elbow back to the face.
When you elbow, you’re hitting
boom. And then reversing it back again.
Boom. Good job. Alright,
good. Three more times.
Nick better chill. She’s ready.
Let’s add to it. Now we’re gonna switch feet and back fist to the face.
Step, back fist. Elbow.
Boom. Back fist. Good.
I want the combo, Holly.
All right, let’s add some more damage to this. Elbow,
reverse elbow, step on the back fist.
This hand is waiting for the punch.
Last one. Elbow.
Nice. Good job.
Alright, here we go.
Last one. Good job.
Good. Violence is key.
What kind of self defense scenarios do you want me to go over?
I’m going to my car at Publix.
That public. Okay,
so we call that what’s called the back bear hug.
So you want to control the arms.
If you don’t control the arms,
to go ahead and put you into a real make a choke,
which you don’t want. So you’re gonna go ahead and just slump down,
but keep your hips forward
and get to a horse stance.
Take your head and smash it back against their head.
She knows that. She was in a band.
Haha. Wow.
You gonna do the exact same thing?
You gonna just take your head forward,
you got it. And smash back.
If they have loose clothes on,
reach for the groin. Grab and tear.
Violence is the option. That’s the key.
Oh, it’s the key.
It’s the key. No options here.
Alright, if that doesn’t work,
you’re gonna do what’s called the shoulder roll.
You’re gonna go ahead and push the hips forward and booty bump
out there. I got answers for everything.
I think this is Holly scenario.
Pretend you’re walking and grab. Sorry.
Good head, good going.
Nick comes up behind her and does that.
She’s like, oh, sorry.
I grab. Good,
good going. Oh shit.
Going good. Heel,
heel and pop, pop.
Okay, good.
You ain’t getting that bunny. Alright,
that’s you walking. Okay,
I’m walking. That’s why I won’t attack them.
Like, what if someone picks you up and like,
has us on your. On their shoulder
so they’re. They’re scooping you up from the front like this?
Yeah, yeah.
Oh. Or do you have anything in your hand?
My phone. Get your phones,
get your phone. So if you see me coming,
just start backing up. Uh huh.
And say there’s a coming in,
you take your phone, shove it where they can’t breathe.
Right into the throat. Oh,
that’s a good one, right?
That’s a good one. A person can’t breathe.
Yeah, they’re done.
I’m coming at you. Back up,
back up, back up.
And boom, boom! Punch.
Good. Again.
That’s genius.
Because I feel like a lot of women are always on their phones.
Turn the phone this way. Right into the throat.
Okay, don’t hit like this.
I want you to hit right into the Adam’s apple.
I’m backing you in the situation,
backing you up, backing you back,
backing you up. And pop,
pop, punch,
then run away. Who’s next?
Hit, hit. Boom!
Go ahead. There you go.
I’m so sorry. Good job.
I totally hit you in the Adam’s apple.
Good job. Okay,
I’m so sorry. Oh my god,
I feel so bad. Alright,
I don’t like violence.
Violence is key. Oh my god.
This is my kind of thing. The other one that I wanted to do,
like someone comes from behind you, steals,
your child’s running away.
Alright, who’s the child here?
I’ll be the child, you’ll be the mom.
I pick up. Yeah.
Alright. What are we doing?
You gonna go ahead and tackle me? Hahaha.
So if I grab him tight right here,
I’m gonna go down and tighten like this. Okay.
Or I grab in the legs like this and take you down as well.
Oh yeah, you put them together. Put the legs together.
Good. There you go.
Wow, just like that.
Come on, cat. Kelly,
quit being bad, Kelly.
Oh,
good. There you go. Good.
She had my growing once. You had.
I’m so sorry. Oh,
you’re good, you’re good.
That’s good, that’s good.
You have the growing. You learn.
You’re Trying to protect your child, right?
I’m doing too much for you.
I’m so sorry. That poor man. He did not deserve that.
