For the ladies,
Is general self defence classes something appealing to yourselves, or something seen as daunting
And if you have previously been, what was the glaring factor that made you leave?

"The class closed due to lack of attendees.
I think the skipping warm up put folk off, it was hard!"
Warm ups seem to be brutal across the board, I do Jujitsu so ours can be a killer,
I've seen the warm up to the class next door and it seems equally as bad |

"If some attacks you spontaneously for real, you don't generally get a warm up period.."
No but practising the manoeuvre 15 times is likely to cause you an injury. If you're attacked for real then injury is out of your control.
I suspect they won't let you just try it again, & again, and again  when it's for real. |

That's very true, and as mentioned muscle memory and being able to carry out what you've drilled over and over always carries an advantage in my eyes

Krav Maga is good also when I worked in the prison we had the Gracie programme which is basically like rugby tackling people and anti ambush training but even then you’re still never 100% ready for when shit kicks off. Adrenaline can fuck with your head. |

Well in my (kink) take down classes, I discovered someone grabbing me by the throat makes me go floppy and purrrr so running probably isn't viable
But I did learn how to take them down 
It feels like a challenge 
So I'll shurrrup now  |
