Zimmer Mon, 24 Aug 2009 23:24:06 +0000 http://myselfdefenseblog.com/?p=605#comment-1932 Hi Scipion121212, True one will need a few more tricks than just the groin kick but I don't agree that groin kicks are over-rated. One can kick the groin from almost any angle (i.e. snap, heel hook, wheel kick) so unless someone is wearing a cup - the groin can be kicked. Now one can argue if it is the best defense in a given scenario. If you would like to explain your point, I'd be glad to debate, failing that - thanks for your opinion. Hi Scipion121212,

If you would like to explain your point, I’d be glad to debate, failing that – thanks for your opinion.

I mean, Bear hug or any attacks performed from behind isn´t suspectible to groin kick in any way, unless performed incorrectly, which I will not post here (=) if you are interested post me a mail on karel_novak@yahoo.com ), 99% from forward arent (except maybe front choke) and from side again, anything except side choke.

Lots of stuff to try. . Hi Michelle! Yes there are great inside strikes that are very effective. It is kind of funny you ask but it is my feeling (after have being kicked so many times there) that men are open for groin kicks... especially if they believe that have a woman scared. I have often feigned apprehension in an altercation - right before I exploded. . Hi Sly - I have wrote about your adventures and mishaps... you are a survivor! And yes - use all of the tools at your disposal. . Hey Bob! Great advice about the foot stomps - I think there are so many good targets and ways to set up the strike and escape for women. . Archie! A man after my own heart! I only wish I could run the 200 fast nowadays! :) Hey Ikigai – you might be right… another good kick might be to scrape the shin on the way down to a stomp on top of the foot. Lots of stuff to try.
