Hand Lock Against Grabbing Collar To The Side
Martial art is to stop the violence, not to create more violence. A martial artist knows the pain of getting hurt. When you practice martial arts, you go through different training. When someone hits and hurts others, the person who gets hit feels the pain.
In your martial art training, you will know what it feels like getting hurt and how to fight back to protect yourself. If you can avoid the fight, you should avoid it. Even when you see someone is trying to do something to trigger you so that you will get involved in the fight, if you manage to change the situation, that's better. You do not need to hit others.
Grabbing and locking are very useful techniques for self-defense. If someone grabs your shirt collar to the side, you can strike and hit the person. He might let you go. But there are situations when you want to move the attacker from the spot. You can grab and lock the attacker's hand and make him do what you want to do.
You can watch this video to see grabbing and locking techniques against collar grab to the side. When the attacker grabs your collar, he does not grab that just to stay calm. He might tell you something or want you to do something or attack you.
Since the attacker has already grabbed you with one hand, he can use his other hand to hit you. You can parry and defend that. You can grab and pull the attacker's elbow up (that grabs your collar). And at the same time, you can move behind the attacker so that it would be difficult to attack you. From there, you can control the attacker. You can move the attacker from there if you want.
