My Kwangjanim told me to strike first if you think the guy will hit you. Don't wait around. He does'nt tell this to many students. I'm 6 feet and 210 solid pounds. I think that's why he said this.

it is equally if not more important for a smaller person than yourself to strike first in a confrontation. always. size matters not. striking first is one of the few "etched in stone" principles of combat.
as a side note: who needs 7000 techniques. that is totally unnecessary, and will slow down the decision making process in a high pressure situation. take a look at the old WW II manuals on hthc. i would much sooner tangle with a black belt in any style than someone with a couple years of combatives under their belt and the mentality to use it. technique memorization is for art only. it hinders you in reality.
