Learning Self Defense Fighting Techniques
How much thought have you given to your safety lately? How about the security of your loved ones? Most of us take things such as this for granted, until got forbid, it happens to you, someone you know, or very close to home. When I say “it happens” I am referring to crime. Could be a robbery, a home invasion, an assault, domestic violence, or even a homicide.
One of my jobs is to keep you from taking your safety for granted. The other part of my job is to provide you with a ways to protect yourself and your family. Awareness in the form of blogs, emails, newsletters, and up to date content on our website are some of the ways we try to raise your awareness.
Within the Baton Rouge area we do safety training, work with non profits, neighborhood watch, and consult our residents on common sense safety.
We offer a very wide spectrum of non lethal self defense products. Each has its place and all are extremely effective when used correctly. One of the most popular trends in self defense is in the form of instructional fighting videos for self defense. You may ask yourself why? There are several different reasons; what happens if I don’t have pepper spray or a stun gun with me and something happens? The popularity of the UFC and other Mixed Martial Arts training has also made instructional fighting very popular. Young males and females are trying it and liking the results.
Many of us feel intimidated or very uncomfortable trying to learn something like karate or boxing in a large group environment. These instructional videos are similar to taking a one on one class, just you and your instructor, but at a faction of the cost. For less than $100 you can purchase high quality fighting DVD s on virtually every self defense fighting style.
The instructors are to best in the business and in most cases train elite groups such as the Navy Seals, CIA, FBI, and SWAT. These videos, for the most part, are easy to learn. Now don’t get me wrong, you can’t just turn it on, go through the motions and expect to be successful. Nothing works that way. The training is hard and intense, so you need to be self motivated and someone who will not quit or give up.
If you have that type of attitude you will be successful at self defense training and in life! You name it, want to learn how to defend yourself in today’s mean streets? do you want to learn cage fighting techniques? how about mixed martial arts? We offer a large selection of instructional fighting DVD s that can dramatically change the way you feel about yourself. Your self confidence and esteem will rise to an all time high. Physically you will feel better because of the exercise and training you are taught. Most importantly, if you find yourself in a situation where you need to defend yourself or someone else in trouble you’ll be able to do that. Now that is a great feeling.
I don’t advocate fighting and I hate bullies and punks who go looking for trouble. I think you should always try to avoid trouble. I always try to be polite and nice. That is until it’s time to no longer be nice. When I’ve retired all peaceful options, then its time for self defense. It’s you or them so you need to know how to fight and win just in case.

Mixed Martial Arts (mma) Madness
While browsing ESPN, you spot what seems like a boxing match, until suddenly opponents start to kick one another. The next thing you know, the two fighters are on the ground, striking one another. Welcome to the exciting and increasingly popular arena of mixed martial arts (also known as MMA). You may think this is the next wave in martial arts entertainment, but this combat sport has actually been around since the Olympic games in 648 BC.
What to Expect During a Match
Mixed martial arts uses three different phases of fighting – stand-up, clinch and ground. Stand-up fighting incorporates boxing, kickboxing and Muay Thai. Freestyle and Greco-Roman wrestling, Sambo (from Russia), as well as Judo are used in the clinch phase of fighting. The ground phase of fighting is characterized by Brazilian Jui-Jitsu (focuses on positioning), shoot wrestling, catch wrestling, Judo, as well as Sambo.
Fighting techniques that you may encounter during a MMA competition includes kicks, punches, knees, pinning holds, sweeps, takedowns, throws, some elbowing, as well as hand-to-hand combat. A win is typically awarded through the decision of a judge. Matches are timed, therefore, the decision comes after the allotted time has passed. Other circumstances that end a fight include referee stoppage, fight doctor decision, submission, cornerman throwing in the towel and of course, a knockout.
The Mixed Martial Arts of Today
The kind of fighting techniques associated with the mixed martial arts of today deals with a combination of different professional fighting styles. Most commonly, a fighter started training in one specific arena of fighting and later decided to branch off into other styles of combat. The main styles of fighting include sprawl-and-brawl, clinch-and-pound and ground-and-pound.
Sprawl-and-brawl is a stand-up fighting approach that utilizes striking and purposefully avoids fighting on the ground. This type of fighter usually has a strong background in boxing, kickboxing, Muay Thai or karate. To fight in this style, MMA fighters have undergone training in wrestling. Well-known mixed martial artists connected to this approach include Chuck Liddell, Maurice Smith and Phil Barconi.
Clinch-and pound uses clinch fighting tactics characterized by a clinch hold. While a fighter holds an opponent so that they cannot move, they will often strike the body using their knees, or other dirty boxing moves. Most of these fighters started wrestling before incorporating boxing techniques. Don Frye, Dan Henderson and Randy Couture are familiar with this style of fighting.
Ground-and-pound involves the taking down or throwing of an opponent. The next step is to get into the dominant position, attacking with strikes. Wrestlers usually turn to this type of fighting, which has been used by the likes of Mark Coleman, Randy Couture and Tito Ortiz.
Since there are so many different styles of MMA combat associated with mixed martial art, you may think that there is nothing a fighter can do to their opponent. In actuality, there are several fouls connected to this sport. A fighter are not allowed to head-butt, eye gouge, pull the hair, bite, attack the groin or strike the back of the head or kidneys of an opponent.
MMA Organizations
Bringing the exciting world of mixed martial arts fighting to the public are several different organizations that all have their own specific rules and regulations. One of the most well known, the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) – http://www.martialartspride.com – tests their fighters for steroids and other illegal substances before allowing entrance to one of their championship bouts. In this organization, elbow strikes are allowed with the exception of ones that come from the north-south direction. PRIDE Fighting Championships mainly offer two different MMA weight classes (heavyweight and middleweight) and forbids fighters from intentionally hanging an arm or leg on the ropes.
With the ZST, which is an organization based in Japan, there are two five-minute rounds. At the end of a match, a fight is deemed a draw if there was no knockout (KO), technical knockout (TKO) or Submission. MMA judges are not used in this form of fighting. Shooto is another form of combat fighting that presents separate rules and regulations for three different class levels (A, B, and C). Level C is set aside for the amateurs. Three 4-minute rounds are attached to the International Fight League, which uses a different pair of gloves, offering less padding.
Regardless of where or within which mma organization, mixed martial arts madness is sweeping the globe and is coming to a “cage” near you!
