If it's so blatently obvious, why is it that we have (in the western world at least) so many people walking out of martial arts classes, and being completely laquacious about how they can defend themselves?
I'm talking about the kind of people who weigh 100lb's and are skinny with little muscle and think that because they were shown a choke counter, that means it will work in the street.
Anyone with half a working brain could work out that for most arts to be effective you need to have more than the technique.
However, as I stated before, many people assume that because they do an art, they can defend themselves, without taking into consideration that their blows need speed, precision and strength to be effective.
