You hear about assaults on women almost on a daily basis. Colorado Springs and Pueblo are good examples of what happens everywhere else. Southern Colorado-the area served by our local TV stations-is mostly conservative, Hispanic and loaded with assaults on women.
Last night the lead story was about a woman who was a domestic violence victim. Her husband almost beat her to death. They pointed out that one in four women is a victim of domestic violence-one in four!
And that is in a country that considers women as equals. How about countries where women have little or no rights at all and are treated worse than cattle?
Without getting preachy, women need to take a stand. There are all sorts of resources for men and women to fix the problem. The first part is deciding what they want to put up with. Two of my daughters were victims after they were married so I have little second hand experience.
Some of the most popular self defense products women can use to defend themselves against domestic violence and assaults are listed here. They are meant to give you time to get away from a dangerous situation and seek help-nothing more.
1. Stun Devices-Stun guns are 86 percent effective, tasers are nearly 100 percent effective. Most police officers carry one or the other on their utility belt-that is how good they are.
2. Pepper Sprays-They are the most popular self defense tool in the world. The main appeal is it can be applied from a distance of up to 18 feet. Pepper spray will incapacitate an assailant for up to 30-45 minutes and hurts like….
3. Personal Alarms-My first recommendation for college age women. The bad guys don’t like anything that draws attention to them. These alarms can be heard from hundreds of yards away.
4. Self Defense DVD’s-The best way to start a self defense program is with a self defense DVD to learn the basics of street fighting in the comfort of your own home.
A well rounded approach to self defense with a self defense course as the foundation is the best way to go. Then carry at least two self defense products like a pepper spray and stun gun or taser. You cannot possibly be too prepared.

Facts About Muay Thai And Self-defense
Looking for a great starting place for self-defense I came across Muay Thai. My interest in learning more about Muay Thai lead me to different useful facts about the tricks that are involved in this art. It is very effective and has been very largely approved by people round the world. The national sport of Thailand, Muay Thai also known as ‘Thai Boxing’ actually originated for use in the battlefield by the Thai army.
In the arena of kickboxing the “King of the Ring” title refers to Muay Thai. The greatest proof of Muay Thai being practical for self defense is the application of the techniques in the wars. Gradually it spread all over the world as an entertaining sport and though earlier there were no specifically set rules gradually, rules were implemented.
Muay Thai as a self-defense strategy
The common relation that is mistakenly drawn between the Muay Thai is to that of kickboxing but in reality there is vast difference among the concepts of Muay Thai for self defense and kickboxing. Muay Thai though is basically a sport which is ring based and is great for self protection. Thus it is very effective and has been very largely approved by people round the world.
If you need to defend yourself from any sudden contingencies do learn the skill of Muay Thai as it will prove very sensible. Through this training you will be taught to defend your self and you will know how to shape up your body so that you can triumph over any assailant.
It is also true that undergoing the training is not any easy task. But if you succeed you can increase your level of self-defense skill to a great extent. You will learn the techniques and you will be using different weapons including punches, striking with the elbows and knee, and if you can use the low kick it can be quite devastating.
When you are defending yourself a great low kick at the rival’s leg will be highly effective. In fact it is known that when you perfectly apply the process there is a possibility of breaking the femur bone of the assailant. Despite your efficiency level not being very high merely bringing the act into play can work effectively.
If you are acquainted with this form of art you can

easily apply it for self defense since this art form is much handier than any other martial arts practiced. This is because while you are being attacked you may not have any weapon but your different body parts which can become a weapon through Muay Thai training.
If you want good self defense knowledge you must train with a good trainer and you will be able to learn the fighting system and how to counter strikes and strike back to cause damage to others when required. Also you will become much more self-confident and disciplined. You will also have to learn to have a high opinion of and respect for the other various martial arts forms like karate, judo, kung fu etc.
