When I ask my students about what is a situation they are really afraid of, a quite common answer is that they are afraid of being kidnapped while walking home at night.
In this video I am showing an effective technique against someone trying to grab you and covering your mouth at the same time (you can see the flow in the first part, and the breakdown in the second part ot the video)
Paradoxically, the hand that covers the mouth is also a key point to get out of this bad situation: while with one hand you pull the attacker's fingers (go full power in a real life scenario), with the other hand you control his elbow.
At the same time, you are blocking his leg (on the same side of the hand that is covering your mouth) by taking a step behind him.
You then pivit on the elbow you are controlling and you take down the attacker.
Many thanks to K. who helped me with this demonstration. We tried the technique several time while applying resistance to make sure it works against a bigger and heavier attacker.
