Self defense skills for the streets
In the streets anything can happen. This is why it’s good to know how to defend yourself
against a street headlock.
Being in a headlock position during a fight can seem like an impossible situation to get away
from. However, with the right self-defense technique, you can find a way out of this tricky
situation.
That’s why we always emphasize on the importance of learning different self-defense skills.
You never know when they might come in handy and save your life.
If you’re in a headlock, protect your head
The first thing to remember if ever you are in a headlock situation is to tuck in your head. In
doing so, you are protecting your facial area from any blows your attacker could be aiming
towards you.
Any hits to your face can cause severe injuries, therefore, it’s important to want to protect it
as much as possible.

Additionally, your frontal bone is very strong and rigid. Therefore, if your attacker is
repeatedly striking your head, he might actually cause more injury to himself then to you.
It’s been noted that many people have actually broken their knuckles by hitting the head.
Here’s more on how to defend yourself against a street headlock
Another great self-defense technique against a headlock is to try and block your opponent’s
elbow by trapping it to his body. By doing so, you are limiting your attacker’s ability to hit you
and you can deliver your own blows.

You want to try and aim your attacker’s face as much as possible since it’s the most sensitive
area and it can also cause him to get distracted.
The goal here is to distract him as much as possible so that he can loosen his hold on you,
making it easy for you to escape the headlock position and giving you a better chance to
defend yourself.
