Self Defense Video Disclaimer:

Please do not merely watch this video and think you will be able to use this technique (or any self defense technique) against a resisting opponent 100 pounds heavier than you! Osmosis won't take what your eyeballs see, and transfer perfect technique into muscle memory. You need to gain the muscle memory the old school way....

GO TRAIN AND PRACTICE!!!
