Make Your Move Observing The Situation and Opponents

Seeing someone you cannot tell what he or she is capable of doing. He might look a small guy, but he can be a tough fighter. You do not know what kind of training he has. He can have a background and he knows what to do in a fight. Don't just assume seeing the size, color, and gender.

A girl can be a great fight. If she has been training, he can easily knock guys out. Oh, that's a girl. What is she going to do? If you underestimate a girl, you might pay the price. If you get hit whether he is a guy or she is a girl, that hurts. And you will be in pain.

Learning one technique and think it will work against everyone is a mistake. When you are going to apply it, you see some people defend that or move and do something that makes that useless. Now you have a problem. So when you attack the opponent or you are being attacked, observe your opponent.

If your opponent is good at kicking, you have to be careful. One kick on the back of your head can make more damage. So keep your hands up and keep an eye on the opponent. You will realize what you should do in that situation.

For example, if you see the guy always does knee charge or elbow strike, you might not want to get close to him and try to keep a distance even when you attack. If the attacker is not in a close range, he will not be able to do an elbow strike or knee charge. Keep your hands up. One elbow strike on your face can decorate your face and you might not recognize yourself.

When you are aware of your surroundings and observe the situation, that gives you the idea of what you should do in that situation to save your life. It is not about having a fight and being a winner or champion. It is about defending yourself and get back home safe.
