Its been proven that any one martial arts fails you actually train you in self defence.

The best and most successful way to defend yourself is either, ran away as fast as you can or, retaliate extremely viciously.

When it comes fighting my motto is "being a tank to a fist fight" some knob end wants to beat you up? Beat them down with the first heavy blunt object you can find or run better to be a coward than in hospital

I had no choice in school and neighborhood but to defend myself. Couldn't run. Martial arts are not bad at all, taught me physical skills, mental skills, discipline, respect and actually be less violent.

From personal experience, its better to be more violent or to leave the situation.

Being more violent tham your attacker can quickly turn the tables, rather than them having the power trip, you strip them of any false strength, you beat your attacker down hard and fast, most of the time they'll be using fists so pick up a chair and plant it into their face several times in a row.

Being viciously violent depends on the situation. You need to use the correct amount of violent for the situation. Sometimes you can actually go to jail for beating up someone who started the fight but didn't use critical hits as you were.

I just liked the idea of it when I was a kid so I went to classes and earned my belts.
