Today’s world boasts of a legal system that aims at preventing violence and crimes in the most effective way possible. Yet it wouldn’t be too much to state that self-defense is more important today than it has been ever before. It is so because the nature of violence has considerably changed in the last few decades. The daily news tells us that violence is not totally out of even those spaces which we used to call secure and safe. The home and the school would be the best examples. When violence and crime has become ever-pervasive like this, it is extremely important to know how to defend ourselves.

Martial Arts: The Perfect Self-Defense for an Age of Violence
The nature of threats and emergencies that we face today are so complex that no ordinary self-defense can help us. In other words, it is not just enough to know how to beat up an opponent. Threats we face these days include unexpected crimes and physical assaults, emotionally taxing ones like domestic violence, sustained assaults like bullying and cyber bullying and so on. The perfect self-defense, therefore, should prepare us physically, mentally and emotionally to defend ourselves. Nothing except martial arts can fill this role. Several factors make martial arts the perfect self-defense for the modern age:
  • Martial arts make you stronger by boosting your physical capabilities, energy levels and agility. Martial art learners can easily overpower a non-learner and physically defend themselves in the face of a surprise emergency.
  • Martial arts make you sharper by teaching you to be alert, quick in reactions and sensitive to environment. At times, perceiving a threat beforehand and avoiding it is much safer and easier than actually landing in the middle of one. Martial arts therefore help you to cultivate the skills to sense and evade a perceived threat.
  • Without mental strength and presence of mind, physical self-defense is often useless. Martial arts hence strengthens you mentally and emotionally by making you confident, courageous, nonchalant and assertive. This supplements your physical defense.
  • Martial arts function by gradually shaping you into a stronger, assertive person. Thus it helps you to defend yourselves in the face of not just an unexpected emergency, but sustained and emotionally taxing forms of abuse such as domestic violence, violence in relationships or bullying.

You deserve a perfect, flawless self-defense that secures every aspect of your life to keep yourself safe today. That is exactly what martial arts can do for you.
