Last night we looked at another “nightmare scenario”: an attack with a machete.
We started with some stark realism.
There are no good options.
Run away of course.
But what if they are faster?
What if there are barriers?
Can you comply or negotiate?
Maybe, maybe not
Find something to use as a shield or weapon
Anything might work as an “equaliser” and our eyes and mind have to be open to every option.
If none of this is possible only then we might have to physically intervene. Our training mantra was “All the way in or all the way out”
Use movement to avoid being hit. If there is a window we close distance rapidly, attach ourselves tightly, limiting their ability to hit us.
We strike as hard and repeatedly until they are unable to unwilling to continue and we escape.
Never perfect, often messy but with the goal of surviving and escaping.
We can help you learn these skills.
