19 Tips For Self-Defense Everyone Should Know

8.

Run, Scream, aim for the eyes, balls, throat, any sensitive point.

9.

The confidence you have is scary to the other person. I’ve honestly avoided more fights by simply being confident in myself and not cringing or projecting fear or weakness. I swear when someone is trying to be the alpha person and taunt you and you look back confident and expressionless, it really takes the wind out of their sails.

10.

Run. Seriously. Your best defense is to get away. If you can’t, then fight like an animal and go for the eyes, the crotch, bite, fight dirty, and make as much noise as possible. If you scream for help, you may not get it. But if you are screaming bloody murder that there is a fire, people will probably respond to that.
