Once you make contact, root your supporting leg and extend your kick, driving your assailant back. By turning the foot so that your toes are pointing to the side, rather than at your assailant, you will drive your hip a few more inches toward your attacker, adding to the thrust of the kick.

PART II

Armed and Unarmed Self-Defense Scenarios

De-escalation

When you find yourself dealing with an aggressive and emotional individual, you should start by asking yourself a simple question: is this a premeditated situation or a spontaneous one? In a premeditated act of aggression/violence, your aggressor has planned and/or orchestrated the situation and has an outcome in mind. They may, for example, be a mugger who has acquired a weapon, chosen a location, selected a victim, and is looking to take their wallet or purse, etc. In a spontaneous act of violence, the aggressor did not enter the situation with any plans to become aggressive. Rather, your actions or behavior—whether real or perceived—caused them to become angry and violent; perhaps you spilled a drink on them, or cut them off in traffic, or cut in front of them in line. The wrongdoing may be imagined or perceived on their part, but their belief in the injustice means that they have become aggressive and therefore dangerous. One of the big differences between spontaneous and premeditated acts of violence is that in spontaneous acts of violence, your aggressor has no predefined outcomes; they don’t know what they want from the situation—unlike a mugger or sexual assailant, who has very clear objectives that they are looking to achieve.
