Last night I was accosted by a man on drugs who threatened to throw me on the train tracks (not great to hear when you are at a train station lol) and assault me. I am a short woman and realised very quickly that he would easily overpower me. Although I was okay because my train arrived and the onboard guard interfered, with how close and aggressive the man got I'm certain I would have gotten seriously injured without the guard being there.
I understand that because of my stature, I couldn’t feasibly take someone on in a fight and win, I am going to work on my physical fitness and sprinting ability, however, I do want to learn some self-defence, that in a situation like yesterday where I might get attacked and they are too close for me to run away.
I’m looking into Krav Maga classes near me and will now carry a tactical torch as I live in Australia and it’s illegal to carry actual self-defence tools.
I live with my dad and was going to ask him to practice grappling or chasing or something similar to a situation I might be in. If anyone has any videos, they think might be helpful for us to simulate, or just advice in general that would be awesome.
Thanks guys
