Using pressure on the attacker’s elbow and hand, take the weapon away from him (Fig. 209).



The enemy strikes with a knife from the side.

Place a block with your left forearm (Fig. 210). Then, grab the clothes on the attacker’s sleeve with your left hand, and on his back with your right. Turning counterclockwise, swing your right leg back between your opponent's legs.

Sitting him down back surface right hip, throw (Fig. 211-212). Deliver a finishing blow with your foot and take away the weapon by squeezing your hand (Fig. 213).



The enemy threatens with a knife pointed to the side of the neck(Fig. 214).

Turn your head to the right, simultaneously grabbing the armed hand with both hands (Fig. 215). Throw the hand lever outwards. After the attacker falls, secure his arm and head with his feet in a standing position and take away the weapon (Fig. 216).



The enemy put his hand in his pocket, trying to get a weapon(Fig. 217).

Using the edge of your left hand, strike between the opponent’s body and hand, holding it in your pocket (Fig. 218). With your right hand, grab the opponent’s elbow from the inside and, pulling it towards you, strike with your knee in the lower abdomen (Fig. 219). Putting it through left hand between the body and the attacker’s right forearm, grab the collar of the clothing from behind.

Grasping your neck in front with your right hand, move it to a controlled position (Fig. 220)



The enemy threatens with a knife.

Hit or throw him in the face with the bag, while simultaneously kicking out the knife (Fig. 221-222). Then, grab the armed hand, go to the back step with a blow to the face with the elbow or open palm (Fig. 223-224).


Fix your hand and take away the weapon (Fig. 225).



The hat is thrown into the opponent's face.

To throw correctly, you need to pry the hat with your fingers at the back of your head and, tilting your head, throw it forward. At the moment when the hat hits the opponent’s face, knock out or block the knife, go to the back step or bend your arm behind your back (Fig. 226-227).



Repelling an attack by a left-handed man armed with a dagger.

In the case when a left-handed person armed with a dagger approaches to strike, you should suddenly bring your right leg from right to left-inward to the left and strike the enemy on the elbow of the left hand so that his left hand goes to the right, immediately, using the favorable moment, come forward , with both hands, grab the wrist and elbow of the opponent’s left hand holding the dagger, chain him. At the same time, step forward with your right foot along the stance and place it behind the opponent’s left foot, turn your body 90 degrees to the left, move the center of gravity of the body forward, lean on left leg, with your right foot, strike from behind, forward and upward - hooking your foot behind the ankle of the opponent’s left leg.

The kick should be combined with appropriate supporting actions with the right hand, which performs a horizontal swing from front to right and back, and knock the opponent down, with the left hand firmly holding the wrist of his left hand, and when the opponent is on the ground, with the right hand quickly help the left hand pull the opponent's wrist up so that his arm is straightened at the elbow, twist his left arm outward and disarm him. Depending on the situation, you can strike the enemy with your heel below the ribs (Fig. 228-235).





Requirements: you should move your leg inside quickly, kick accurately, approach and grab the opponent's left wrist quickly and decisively, coordinate movements when hooking the ankle and swinging your right hand, twist the wrist and take the dagger with force.

When improving self-defense techniques against an attack by an enemy armed with a knife, you should remember several important points. First, the position of the armed hand must be controlled throughout its movement until disarming, in order to prevent cuts or punctures. Secondly, when performing a technique, you must always strive to move away from the line of attack. Thirdly, the techniques must be carried out in such a way that the hand with the knife rushes in the direction opposite to your departure from the line of attack.

Fourth, try to avoid getting too close to the enemy. short distance. The closer he is to you, the more difficult it is to avoid defeat. Fifthly, improve all techniques against a knife with training weapon(wooden, plastic).

Unlike the conglomerate of attack and defense techniques - juu-jutsu, which was practiced by a relatively small number of people, judo, developed by Jigaro Kano, was designed to reach a large number of people, as a system of physical education for the younger generation, development and maintenance physical capabilities adult organism in a militarized aspect. Judo has firmly taken first place among professionally applied means physical training employees of law enforcement agencies.

Naturally, at the same time, it had to be feasible for almost everyone and take up a significant part of the educational component of the time, thereby ensuring the duration of classes for everyone. The composition of formalized exercises (kat), thanks to the demonstration of which students receive qualification categories, allows them to qualify for highly qualified to almost any person capable of diligent mastery of this subject. It is thanks to the feasibility of qualifying exercises and compliance with numerous pedagogical attributes of judoka behavior that the judo system has reached millions of people in Japan.

The judo system consists of three blocks of activity.

1. Mastering self-defense techniques without weapons (special section), carried out in a conditional contact mode.

2. Mastery of wrestling techniques that allow one to master judo techniques in the situational conditions of a fight without risk to life and health, practicing in the “randori” (free duel) mode.

3. Mastering wrestling techniques in order to achieve high sports results to satisfy one’s own social and public needs.

This block of activities was formed after judo entered the world sports arena, due to which many socio-pedagogical principles of judo gradually lose their effect, and are replaced by the not always rational principle of achieving a goal by any means. Without dominance in this system of direction for physical education, judo is threatened with degeneration, which will be accompanied by a reduction in the number of students, as is the case with types of gymnastics, and a decrease in entertainment, unlike gymnastics.

TECHNIQUES OF A SPECIAL SECTION OF THE JUDO SYSTEM (COORDINATION AND OPERATIONAL FUNCTIONS AND CONDITIONAL CONTACT MODE) COMPOSITION AND METHODS OF STUDYING A SPECIAL SECTION (SELF-DEFENSE) ACCORDING TO THE OFFICIAL VERSION OF TRADITIONAL JUDO

The content and methodology of traditional judo is largely similar to that of aikido, especially in the special section. Illustrations of traditional self-defense techniques in the judo system and methods of mastering it cause some rejection among modern Western martial arts specialists due to changes in ideas about self-defense techniques that have occurred over the century. However, it is necessary to know the essence of the traditional judo system associated with mastering the self-defense section. Thus, it includes blocks of formalized exercises of direct self-defense (Kime-no-kata), Koshiki-no-kata (ancient) and Judo-no-kata (flexibility kata). Specialized katas present self-defense techniques in a manner not typical of European martial arts (which tend to accelerate the transition to martial arts modes). For example, mastering defense techniques begins with a kneeling position.

If we take into account the fact of excessively early specialization in physical education, then the presence of such a section of preparation is completely justified, since it ensures greater stability of the mutual posture.

Traditional judo uses the “ancient kata” Koshiki-no-kata, the techniques of which satisfy the conditions of combat in heavy armor. All throws belong to the Sutemi-waza group (throws with a fall, dragging the enemy with you). Close to self-defense is flexibility kata (Judo-no-kata), the content of which is close to the manner of aikido, which indicates the relationship of these systems

COMPOSITION OF SELF-DEFENSE TECHNIQUES WITHOUT WEAPONS IN CONNECTION WITH THE DEVELOPMENT OF SPECIAL SECTION TECHNIQUES

Practice shows that the fewer techniques a fighter has against the same type of attack, the faster and more accurately he reacts to the attack. It is even better if the fighter reacts with the same type of movement in response to a generalized attacking landmark. Therefore, this work will present a unified defense and unified technical and tactical actions in the event of typical enemy resistance in response to the first defensive actions. A more extensive combinational self-defense technique, as an independent course, will be presented in a special textbook.

PROTECTION AGAINST KNIFE STRIKES

Due to the fact that the most common, most dangerous and unexpected threat is an attack with a knife, it is advisable to violate the pedagogical principle “from simple to complex” and begin studying self-defense against a knife attack, so that in the future, by repeating the material covered when mastering other Thus, this section was worked out to the point of automaticity.

It is necessary to first clarify the terms of technical actions in the reception phases, which in the future will often be used in the section of self-defense without weapons (using the example of bending the arm behind the back against a blow from below with a knife).

Parry attacks: – stopping the attacking hand or object with a hard block (in this case, with the opposite forearm (Fig. a)

Fixation: grabbing a threatening limb (in this case, the elbow from above) with the free hand in order to prevent it from being pulled back for a second attack (Fig. b)

Neutralization enemy: - an action that allows you to exercise complete control over the enemy) (Fig. c)

For full control an additional grip of the opponent is required by the far shoulder from behind or by the throat (hair, eyes).

In this section, there is no parrying such as “fork” with a hand, “fork” with hands (S. A. Seliverstov, 1997), since they lead to injuries to the defending hand. Crossing the forearms leads to the inability to perform a technique due to a change in the attacking hand. Parrying with a subsequent blow instead of fixing the attacking hand (V.N. Lavrov, 1995) leads the defender to repeatedly solve the problem of defense anew.

a – parrying when defending against a knife strike from below

b – fixing the elbow of the attacking hand with the same hand from above

c – neutralization by bending the arm behind the back

1. Protection from direct (from below) knife blows to the stomach, chest, neck (Fig. 3.2)


Rice. 3.2. Bend your arms behind your back. Parrying (stopping) the opponent's right hand with the left (opposite) forearm down. Fixing the elbow with the right hand from above. Kick - bend your arms behind your back. With your freed hand, press on the opponent’s throat from behind (grab by the hair, eye sockets)

It should be borne in mind that if this condition is not met, the opponent can turn in the direction of the captured hand and carry out a “mill” extension through the shoulders.

2. Protection from knife strikes from above (Fig. 3.3)

Parrying (stopping) with the opposite forearm up (from the inside).

Fixing the attacking forearm with the other hand. Turn the palm of the same hand upward so that you can grab the attacking hand at the wrist. Pull the opponent past you and pull the elbow lever with your chest down.


4. Defense against backhand knife strikes in the upper sector using the elbow lever with the chest on top using a double block with the forearms (Fig. 3.5)

Parry (stop) with both forearms outside of you. Fixing the attacking forearm with both hands. Pulling the opponent past you - lever the elbow with the chest down.


5. Technical and tactical actions in response to the attacker’s resistance to “bending his arm behind his back” (Fig. 3.6)

Parry with the opposite forearm down from the inside. Fixing the elbow of the attacking hand from above with the same hand. From a distracting kick - an attempt to bend the arm behind the back.

If there is resistance, grab the hand from below with the same hand, pressing with your thumbs on the depressions of the bases between the index and middle fingers, the little finger and the ring finger. With your little fingers, press your wrist downwards - towards you, and with your thumbs onto your hand - away from you.


Rice. 3.6. “Press up” the hands by bending the arm behind the back (a, b, c, d – combination and e – detail)

6. Technical and tactical actions in response to resistance to “pressure” of the hand (Fig. 3.7)

When resisting the pressure of the hand from an unsuccessful bend of the arm behind the back, carry out a distracting kick. While stepping away from the opponent, apply the elbow lever with your chest on top.

7. Technical and tactical actions in response to the attacker’s resistance to the “lever of the elbow with the chest on top”

If the opponent resists the elbow lever with the chest from above, carry out a distracting kick. Stretch the captured arm upward and then repeat the attempt to leverage the elbow with your chest down (Fig. 3.8).


Rice. 3.8. Combination when the opponent resists the elbow lever with the chest from above by deceiving him into pressing the wrist with a kick to the leg

8. Technical and tactical action against a knife strike from below with the attacking hand sliding upward

When parrying an attacking hand that strikes from below with a knife, the opponent's hand may slide up the blocking forearm.

In this case, the hand of the blocking hand turns palm up, thumb outward so as to grab the forearm from the inside. With your free hand, grab the opponent’s hand from top to bottom so that you can subsequently place it on the forearm of your hand holding the opponent’s hand at the wrist.

At the same time, carry out the side step so that the opponent is stretched along the support (Fig. 3.9).


Rice. 3.9. Lever of the elbow through the forearm when the arm slides up while bending the arm behind the back

9. Technical and tactical action against a knife strike from above with the attacking hand sliding down

When parrying an attacking hand that strikes from above with a knife, the opponent's hand may slide down the blocking forearm.

In this case, use your blocking hand to grab the attacking forearm with your thumb down. With your free hand, grab the opponent's arm from below at the elbow. At the same time, step towards the opponent’s free hand and perform an exit rotation, placing the elbow of his hand on your shoulder or in the crook of your elbow (Fig. 3.10).


Rice. 3.10. Lever of the elbow over the shoulder with a twist when the attacking hand slides down in the process of beating the hand when striking with a knife from above

If the opponent resists the lever over the shoulder, turn in the opposite direction and move the elbow lever through the bend of the elbow with the side step (Fig. 3.11.).

Rice. 3.11. Elbow lever through the bend of the elbow while resisting the elbow lever over the shoulder

10. The problem of increasing the reliability of protection against knife attacks

In the process of in-depth study of this problem, it was possible to note Interesting Facts mass misconception when assessing the degree of effectiveness of protection against knife attacks.

During competitions in the self-defense section, it was revealed that the slightest resistance from a partner simulating an attack confuses the examinee. A typical attacker's resistance to arrest is stiffness of the shoulder and forearm muscles. But even with such measured resistance, only those examinees who have previously practiced sambo, judo, freestyle or Greco-Roman wrestling successfully cope.

Another, more disconcerting factor is the withdrawal of the attacking hand when the defender tries to grab it (especially when striking from below). In these cases, an attempt to retaliate with a strike to the solar plexus or chin (according to the description of the technique on the ticket) allows the opponent to re-attack with a knife.

There are cases when the defender, not recognizing in time where the blow will come from, uses a differentiated parry (hitting from the outside with the elbow up or hitting from the outside with the elbow down), as suggested by V.N. Lavrov (1995), as a result of which the defense is disrupted and the defender is, by and large, stabbed to death.

In connection with the above, the reader is offered a unified defense that significantly increases the reliability of the defender’s actions.

11. Unified parrying of knife strikes from below, direct to the chest, neck or strikes from above (Fig. 3.12)

Recently, much attention has been paid to knife fencing in the literature on martial arts (Liang Yi Xuan, 1994, etc.). Therefore, not only straightforward attacks with a knife are possible, but also unexpected attacks with a knife from any hand, from below or from above. The most dangerous is a direct blow with a knife to the chest (neck) with a direct diagonal grip (A. E. Taras, 1999). For this purpose, it is necessary to master a unified defense with the expectation that the most unexpected and short blow is delivered by the blade from thumb(bottom or straight).

Rice. 3.12. Unified protection against knife strikes from below and direct strikes to the chest and neck

During an attacking movement of any opponent's hand from below in a circular motion turn your arms palms up to the sides and raise them to the level of your neck. With your palms facing down, lower them until they meet the attacking hand. The palms should overlap each other in order to prevent an attack from an unexpected direction.

In the case when the enemy’s hand attacking from below comes out to attack from above (with a blade from the little finger), the hands that were preparing to defend against a blow from below turn with their palms up and block the attack from above (Fig. 32).


Rice. 3.13. Unified protection against any knife attacks

In this picture (look carefully) a complex case is shown where the attacker first imitates a direct blow to the throat with a knife. In any case, the defender organizes defense against such a blow (since it is the shortest and therefore dangerous).

When the attacking hand comes from below to chest level, it is difficult to recognize the method of striking according to the recommendation of V.P. Volkov (1940), since it is not always possible to visually grasp the method of gripping the knife. In addition, on an upward trajectory, the attacker (as is now fashionable) can throw the knife with the blade towards the little finger and will be ready to strike from above. The defender's hands, once lower than the opponent's, can quickly reorient themselves to defend against an overhead strike. If you wait for the moment when you can recognize the direction of the blow (from above or below), the knife strike will be missed.

We will not consider protection from knife attacks using a police baton (Yu. E. Maryashin, 1990) or, even better, a machine gun, out of respect for the logic of the section “Self-Defense” without weapons." Recommendations for using a bag belt to protect against a knife also fall into this category.

In this section, after mastering the elementary coordination of movements when parrying knife blows and fixing the attacking limb, it is no coincidence that we first propose the study of techniques for responding to typical methods of resistance by the enemy when the defender attempts to arrest him.

The fact is that actions associated with proprioceptive-motor coordination at the level of thoracic motor skills are easier to master (N. A. Bernstein, 1991).

Only after mastering technical-tactical actions at the dynamic level should one study and practice more complex technical-tactical actions at the visual-motor level - parry variations in changing situations.

PROTECTION AGAINST HAND IMPACTS

Biomechanical (spatial, force and temporal) characteristics of attacking and defensive actions largely depend on the initial position of both opponents.

One of these biomechanically fundamental positions is the mutual stance in projection on horizontal plane(Yu. A. Shulika, 1982). If the attacker and his opponent stand in a right-sided or left-sided stance, such a mutual stance is called the same stance. If the attacker stands in a right-handed stance, and his opponent stands in a left-handed stance, the mutual stance is called opposite. Depending on the mutual stance, the tactics of using attacking and defensive techniques are formed.

1. Protection from direct blows with the near hand in the same stance (Fig. 3.14)

Lean back from the blow, beat off the forearm of his near attacking hand inward with the hand farthest from the enemy, step with your front leg towards the opponent’s front leg. Grasp his neck with your near hand and, after stepping up with the far leg, perform a “leaning with a supporting grip” (O-soto-gari).


Rice. 3.14. "Tilt with support grip" vs. direct blow with the near hand in the same stance.

2. Protection from direct blows with the far hand in the same stance (Fig. 3.15)

Lean back from the blow, beat off the forearm of the attacking hand inward with the hand closest to the opponent, step your front leg towards the opponent’s front leg. Grasp his neck with the near hand, and the shoulder with the far hand from the inside and, pressing on the captured hand, perform a “tilt with the same hook from the outside” (O-soto-otoshi).


Rice. 3.15. “Tilt with the same hook from the outside” against a direct strike with the far hand with the same stance

3. Protection from direct blows with the near (far) hand in the same stance (Fig. 3.16)

When attacking an enemy with a far or near hand, with a stance of the same name, take a wide step from the inside to the opponent’s near leg (body weight on the front leg) and grab reverse grip his near leg by the thigh and popliteal crease. Shifting your body weight from the near leg to the far leg, pull the opponent’s legs along the support.


Rice. 3.16. Lunge with a “slope”, throwing the leg back with both hands in the same stance

4. Protection from direct blows with the near hand in an opposite stance (Fig. 3.17)

Lean outward and turn towards the enemy with a step. At the same time, push the attacking hand inward with your near hand, grab the forearm from the inside with your far hand and press it to your chest. From a distracting kick to the leg, step away from the opponent and, with the other leg extended, kick off the opponent’s near leg by straightening the knee joint. Pull the opponent past you and, pressing with your forearm from above, pull the elbow lever.


Rice. 3.17. Hitting inside with an approach, knocking down with a trip

5. Protection from direct blows with the far hand in an opposite stance (Fig. 3.18).

Lean back from the blow, use the hand farthest from the opponent to hit the forearm of the attacking hand inwards, use your near hand to protect a possible blow from the near one, step your front foot towards the opponent’s front leg. Grasp his neck with your near hand, and his shoulder with the far hand and perform a “trip rotation” (possibly with repetition).


Rice. 3.18. “Trip rotation” against a direct strike with the far hand with an opposite stance

6. Protection from direct blows with the far (near) hand in an opposite stance (Fig. 38)

When attacking the enemy with the far hand from an opposite stance, take a wide step towards the enemy from the outside of his front leg (body weight is on the front leg) and clasp his near leg by the thigh and popliteal fold with a reverse grip. Shifting your body weight from the near leg to the far leg, pull the opponent’s legs along the support.

This technique can be successfully carried out against direct strikes with any hand from any stance, but in this case it is necessary, while lunging forward, to cover your head with the palm of the hand farthest from the opponent and not raise it until the end of the opponent’s legs stretching past you.

In the initial stance of the same name, after a dive, the enemy may try to grab your neck under the shoulder. In this case, you cannot raise the enemy. You need to pull his legs along the support and past you.

12. Protection from side hand strikes from the far hand of the defender in any mutual stance (Fig. 3.25)

Most self-defense textbooks and hand-to-hand combat against hand strikes at close range, it is proposed to use painful techniques in a standing position.

However, if they are used in conditions close to competitive ones, the injury rate increases sharply.

On the other hand, when meeting equally qualified opponents, such techniques are not successful. Therefore, the optimal solution to the problem is to return throws immediately after blocking the blow by grasping the shoulder of the attacking arm, as shown in Fig. 3.25 and 3.26.

KICK PROTECTION

Great importance when organizing an attack and defense in hand-to-hand combat and during self-defense without weapons, they have the original distances (N. N. Oznobishin, 1930).

Ultra long distance – a distance at which it is impossible to use strikes with the fighter’s limbs. In this case, a long melee weapon or an attacker maneuver is used:

– straight (jump on the far supporting leg);

– circular movement (reverse circular approach);

– with a kick with the far supporting leg from a preliminary rotation on the front leg.

Long distance – the distance from which a strike with the front foot is possible without an additional approaching maneuver.

Average distance– the distance from which direct punches are possible.

Close range – the distance from which strikes with the hand (fist, edge of the palm, etc.), elbow and knees are possible.

Types of parries (parries, blocks)

Upper repulsion (block) against attacks to the upper sector (upper blows):

the hand is at the top – the elbow is at the bottom.

Lower repulse (block) against blows to the lower sector (low blows): the hand is at the bottom – the elbow is at the top.

Hitting (block) inside: the protecting hand is directed past its body (toward itself).

Hitting (block) outside: the protecting hand is directed outside of your body (away from yourself).

1. Protection from direct (side) kicks from below from any stance (Fig. 3.29)


Rice. 3.29. Parry with the forearm downwards and outwards with the ankle joint bent

It should be borne in mind that when trying to twist the foot, the opponent can turn along its longitudinal axis and strike with a strong swing with his free leg. To neutralize this maneuver, it is necessary to sharply pull the captured leg downward, pressing the captured shin and foot in the direction opposite to the possible rotation.

However, kicks from below are a gift for a professional, and therefore it is advisable to practice a unified defense against more dangerous blows to the head and knee joint, the implementation of which will be followed by more specific fixation and neutralization.

In the future, the opponent's kicks will be considered combined for direct strikes, side strikes, rear strikes, side strikes, since they are similar in the danger of the direction of their trajectory, despite the differences in amplitude.

When differentiating defense against strikes in conditions of various mutual stances, one should keep in mind the commonality of strikes from the left and right in terms of spatial parameters. The difference between them is that the blows delivered by the near leg are more unexpected, but weaker, while the blows delivered by the far leg are more powerful, but less unexpected.

The difference may be in the actions taken after parrying blows.

PROTECTION AGAINST PINCING BLOWS WITH LONG WEAPONS

In this section, it is necessary to take into account the peculiarity of simultaneously leaving the line of attack and entering starting position in conditions of mutual homonymous and opposite stands.

The fact is that when using a long piercing weapon, holding it with both hands determines the nature of the attack and the nature of countering the defense.

The exit of the defender towards the far leg of the enemy in the same stance will be conventionally called "going inside."

Exit of the defender towards the opponent’s near leg with the same stance - “going outside.”

"going inside."

The defender’s exit towards the opponent’s far leg with an opposite stance – "coming out."

"Exits to the Outside" dangerous because the defender goes in the direction of the preferred adjustment (adjustment of direction) of the weapon.

However, when meeting with an opposing opponent, it is not advisable to change the usual method of entering the start of the main technique, since an undeveloped method of entering in the opposite direction can bring more trouble than the attacker’s ability to fine-tune the weapon.

1. Protection against bayonet punctures in the same stance (Fig. 3.39)

Rice. 3.41-2. Exit to the outside, backhand strike to the throat - throwing back with an outside sweep

PROTECTION AGAINST CUTS WITH LONG WEAPONS

A long stick (pole) or a two-handed sword can be used as a weapon. When defending against slashing blows with a stick (sixth), it is possible to glidely parry a blow with the forearm with maximum proximity to the enemy.

When defending against slashing attacks with a bladed weapon, no blocks are possible. Unfortunately, there are publications on martial arts that “fascinate” the ignorant, in which it is proposed to stop the blow of a sword (and even a Japanese one, designed not to pierce, but to cut) by pressing it with your palms and then rotating it around the longitudinal axis.

What is this? Dreams that have not been verified by personal experience or advertising designed to appeal to fools? There are recommendations for protecting against slashing strikes with a saber by diving towards the strike and holding the defense with the opposite hand tangentially towards the strike (Fig. 3.42). We don't recommend doing this stupid thing. You can parry a blow with a saber only with a handy object with sufficient strength.

Rice. 3.48. Stepping with the near leg with the foot turned inward, parrying the blow with both hands downward and outward. Approaching – grasping the opponent’s neck (a preliminary blow is possible), turning with a tripe (tilting with a tripe)

PROTECTION AGAINST CUTS WITH SHORT WEAPONS

A number of works on self-defense and hand-to-hand combat illustrate a method of parrying blows with a small sapper blade, blocking the attacker’s wrist with the forearm or “fork” of the hand (Fig. 3.49).

In our opinion, this is not entirely correct, since the metal part of the shovel (especially the ax) is heavier than the wooden handle, and when the attacking hand stops, the speed of the upper part of the shovel and its weight will create such a living force of the “projectile” that the hand will not be able to hold the handle and the shovel ( ax) will hit the defender on the head. In this regard, it is proposed to parry the blow with one hand in the area of ​​the middle of the handle (handle), and with the other in the area of ​​the wrist of the attacking hand.

1. Protection from blows with an ax (small sapper blade) from above and from the side from behind standing leg(Fig. 3.50)

Rice. 3.51. Approaching the opponent with the near foot, parrying the handle with the near hand and the forearm (wrist) with the far hand. Elbow lever with chest on top

PROTECTION AGAINST CHAIN ​​WEAPONS

When attacking with a chain weapon (nunchucks, chain, etc.), parrying is possible only with the use of soft improvised objects in the form of your jacket, shoulder bag, waist belt.

As a last resort, you can use stands with hard objects, but with a very firm grip (preferably with two hands).

PROTECTION AGAINST THE THREAT OF FIREARMS

1. Protection from the threat of short-barreled weapons (pistol) (Figure 3.52)

Rice. 3.52 By beating your arms inward - pressing your hand (if necessary, lever your elbow with your chest on top)

6. Protection against threats from long-barreled weapons (rifle, machine gun, submachine gun)

When threatening with a long-barreled weapon, the same parry is made as when threatening with a pistol. After this, a tilt with a tripe can be carried out to prevent the leg from being kicked from the inside (pressing on the opponent’s chest with his machine gun) or a rotation with the tripe to prevent the leg from being kicked from the inside (by snatching the machine gun).

9. Protection from grips (grabs) by opponents from both sides Martial arts literature offers many options for defending against double-sided grips, but most of them are circus-like tricks such as forward or backward somersaults and are not suitable for use by the “average” person. The best way to prepare yourself for this case is by practicing not only self-defense, but also the sports section of sambo or judo (i.e., wrestling). In addition, the arsenal of such actions can be purely individual, and average recommendations in this case are useless.

DETENTIONS

Many manuals on special self-defense techniques give many ways to detain and escort without using handcuffs. Experience shows that only one method of arrest and subsequent convoy is optimal - this is the lever of the elbow through the forearm with a knot (provided that pain is applied to the elbow joint during movement).

The literature on the special section of self-defense describes such

detention techniques such as:

– with the elbow lever over the shoulders;

– bending your arm behind your back with a jerk;

– bending your arm behind your back from diving under your arm;

– pressing the hand down while fixing the elbow by grabbing the hand under the shoulder.

However, these methods, despite their external effectiveness, are fraught not just with escape, but with the death of the detainee and the escort.

Rice. 3.65. Detention and convoy with the elbow lever through the forearm with a knot

Option 1 (Fig. 292). Step back with your left foot, turn to the left and, leaving the line of attack, place a block down with your right hand. Grab the wrist with your right hand from above and your left from below, step your left foot forward and, turning to the right, turn the opponent's hand with the knife, palm up. Quickly move your left hand to the elbow joint, step your left foot forward and place it in front of the opponent’s right leg. Pressing the elbow forward and down with your left hand, and turning your hand forward with your right hand, perform a painful “elbow lever inward” technique. Knock your opponent down and disarm him.

Option 3 (Fig. 294). Once again we encounter a “throw on 4 sides”.

Step forward with your left foot, place a block with both hands downwards “fork”, grab the wrist and strike with the right foot in the groin. Without allowing the enemy to come to his senses, pull his hand with the knife up and to the right and, turning on his left leg in a circle to the right, step back with his right foot, move the enemy’s hand over his head and throw him to the ground. Without releasing your forearm and turning it to the side, disarm your opponent.

Option 4 (Fig. 295). Step forward with your left foot, place a fork block, grab the opponent's wrist with both hands, pull the arm towards you and kick in the groin. Pull the captured hand to the left and up, step under this hand with your right foot and place it behind the heel of the opponent’s right foot. Turn on this leg to the left in a circle and carry your opponent's arm over your head. Step your left foot behind your opponent's legs and pull his arm in a forward-downward arc so that it points back between his legs. At the very end of the movement, release your left hand, move it behind the opponent’s back and there again grab the wrist of the hand with the knife behind his buttocks. With your right hand, grab the hair, eyes or nose from above. In this position, you can escort the enemy in the desired direction.

After defending by grabbing the opponent’s hand, in the same way as in the previous version, pull your hand to the left and up, step with your right foot, but not behind the opponent’s right heel, but more to the side. Also turn around on your right foot, move your opponent’s arm over his head and, twisting it to the right, step your right foot forward towards his head. By stretching your arm to the side and twisting it forward, force your opponent to the ground and disarm him.

If you failed to put the enemy on the ground, then kick him in the head or tuck under this arm a second time than hit him serious injury shoulder

Another very effective finish in this position. Turning around under the enemy’s hand to the left, quickly step your left foot to the left behind his back and strongly pull your hand with the knife to the left and up towards his left shoulder blade. Severe pain in shoulder joint will cause him to momentarily cease all resistance and bend slightly forward. Without hesitation, grab the clothing on his left shoulder with your left hand and, with a strong jerk, pull the opponent towards you and down. Moving back, sit him on the ground, jerk his wrist with the knife upward, injuring the shoulder joint. From this position, the opponent can be turned to the right through the captured arm, placed on his stomach on the ground and tied up.

Be extremely careful when training, because... A partner falling backwards onto a far-abducted elbow can result in serious injury to the shoulder joint. To prevent this from happening, protect your partner's fall to the ground with your hips and shins.

After bringing your hand over your head and turning around, simultaneously with a step back with your left foot, it is possible to strike the enemy’s hand with a knife in his stomach.

Option 5 (Fig. 296). The basis is the same as in the previous version: we place the block with a “fork”.

Grab the wrist with both hands and pull the hand with the knife to the right, past you, turning the opponent's back to you. At the same time, step forward with your left foot behind his back and with your left hand grab his head from behind so that your left palm is on the opponent’s left temple. Continuing to turn to the right on your left foot, step back with your right foot and follow it with your right hand to pull the opponent’s hand with a knife. With this movement you will force the enemy to walk around you in a circle. And then instantly change the direction of rotation - without letting go of your head with your left hand, step your left foot behind the opponent’s back and pull his head there. At the same time, releasing the hand with the knife, step your right foot behind the opponent’s back and with a strong jerk of your slightly bent right arm downwards, complete the combination with a “20 year throw”.

Option 6 (Fig. 297). Step forward with your left foot and place a block downwards with both hands crossed (right hand on top). With your right hand, grab the enemy's hand with the knife from the little finger side, kick forward in the groin or lower abdomen, pull the enemy's hand with the knife into the elbow crook of your left hand and turn it palm up. At the same time, place your left palm on top of his right elbow and, holding the hand with the knife in the crook of his left elbow, press firmly down. Moving away from the enemy, lay him on his stomach, injure his elbow joint and take away the knife.

Option 7 (Fig. 298). In the previous version, after taking the defense, you can not perform a painful hold on the elbow joint, but, bending the hand inward, remove the knife. To do this, after turning the hand with the knife with your fingers up and fixing it in the elbow bend, moving away from the enemy, strike the wrist joint with your left forearm from above the side of the palm. The hand is bent inward, the fingers will open and the knife will remain in your hand. Everything must be done in one movement and quickly: step back, straightening your arm with the knife, while simultaneously making a sharp blow with your left forearm from above on the wrist joint down and towards yourself.

Option 8 (Fig. 299). As in previous versions, we defend ourselves with the support of two hands crossed.

With your right hand, grab the opponent’s elbow from above, pull it towards you, bring your left hand from below to the elbow, strike with your knee in the groin and perform a painful technique “bending your arm behind your back”. Strike the back of the neck with the edge of your palm.

It is possible to move the enemy's hand with a knife behind his back without a cross block. At the moment the strike begins, leaving the line of attack, step your right foot forward and to the right and use your left forearm to deflect the strike outward. At the same time, with your right hand, grab the hand with the knife from above at the elbow. With your left forearm, lift this arm up, press it to your shoulder and grab the elbow joint from below with your hand. Quickly step your right foot back in a circle and, turning on your left leg in a circle to the right, with both hands pull the opponent's arm by the elbow behind you in a circle up, forward, and down. At the same time, move your left elbow behind his back towards his spine. Because of the pain in the shoulder joint, the enemy will be forced to bend over and you can grab his head with your right hand from below and, pulling it towards you, put him in a very uncomfortable position. Then you can escort him, lay him on the ground and tie him up, or by sharply pulling his head towards you and your elbow up, you can injure the shoulder joint.

Option 9 (Fig. 300). All that block with both hands crossed. With your right hand, grab the hand with the knife from the little finger side and kick it in the groin. By moving both hands to the left and up, raise the captured hand above your head, at the top point, turn your left hand and grab the opponent’s hand from the thumb side. Moving towards the head and using the knife as a lever, turn the hand towards the little finger. Place your opponent on his stomach and disarm him. During the submission hold, you will have the opportunity to kick to the stomach or head.

Option 10 (Fig. 301). With your left foot step forward and to the left, leave the line of attack and, turning around, place a block with your left forearm inward. Grab the opponent's hand with the knife from below from the little finger side so that the thumb is on the back of the hand and the rest are on the front. With your left hand, make the same grip on the thumb side. In such a situation, the knife ends up between the thumb and forefinger of the left hand. Kick to the groin and apply a painful arm outward lever technique.

Option 11 (Fig. 302). With your left foot stepping forward and to the left and twisting your body to the right, move away from the line of attack and move the enemy’s hand with the knife inward. With your left hand, firmly grab his wrist and, stepping back with your right foot, turn to the right on your left foot and stand with your left side to the opponent. Pull your opponent's arm around you to the right. As soon as he follows you, and he has nowhere to go, he is forced to turn around to face you, immediately change the direction of movement: with your left foot, step behind the enemy’s back, with your right hand, grab his hand with the knife from below from the little finger side and, stepping behind his back, also with your right foot, perform a painful hold “arm lever outward.” If you do everything quickly and consistently, then, we assure you, the throw will turn out to be dynamic.

Option 12 (Fig. 303). The defense is similar to the two previous options - leaving the line of attack and moving the hand with the knife inward. After this, grab the wrist with the knife with both hands and pull the enemy's arm forward as you attack. If you feel resistance, immediately change the direction of movement - quickly step your left foot towards the enemy and place it far behind his right leg, and pull your hand with the knife up and forward behind his back. Continuing to move forward, do not give him the opportunity to stop, flip him onto his back and disarm him.

Option L2 (Fig. 304). With your right foot step forward and to the left, leave the line of attack and, turning to the left, place a block with two hands outward. With your left hand, grab the opponent's wrist from above and pull the hand with the knife forward. At the same time, strike the neck with the edge of your right hand or the back of your fist in the face. Continuing to extend your arm forward, step your right foot toward it and grab your left wrist from above with your right hand over your opponent's forearm. And immediately, with your left foot stepping forward and to the right, turn on your right foot in a circle to the right and raise the opponent’s captured hand up. While pressing on the wrist and bending it inward, place your arm behind your back. In this position, the enemy is helpless and you can injure his hand and disarm him.

Option 14 (Fig. 305). Step your left foot forward and left and, turning to the right, place a block with both hands inward. With your right hand, grab the opponent's wrist with the knife from above and pull it forward as you move. At the same time, strike the side of the stomach with your right knee. Place your foot on the ground, grab the opponent's wrist with the knife with both hands, pull your arm up, step your right foot back, turn to the right and perform a “4-way throw”.

Option 15 (Fig. 306). As in the previous version, move away from the line of attack and deflect the strike with your palms inward. With your right hand, grab your wrist and pull your hand forward, and with the muscle part of your left fist, strike backhand to the groin. Grab your wrist with both hands and pull your knife hand forward and

up, while simultaneously turning it palm up. With your left foot, step under this arm, turn your back to the opponent and place the elbow of the captured arm on yours. left shoulder. By bending it downwards, injure the opponent's elbow joint.

Option 16 (Fig. 307). Step back with your left foot away from the line of attack and, turning to the left, deflect the blow outward. With your left hand, grab the opponent's wrist, pull him forward by the arm, and at the same time, with your left hand, throw a backhand punch to the face with the back of your fist. Without allowing your opponent to come to his senses, step your left foot forward, behind his right leg. Pull his hand with the knife there and throw him with a rear step, grabbing his head and arm. After throwing the enemy to the ground, place your hand with the knife behind your back and disarm him

Due to the fact that the most common, most dangerous and unexpected threat is an attack with a knife, it is advisable to violate the pedagogical principle “from simple to complex” and begin studying self-defense against a knife attack, so that in the future, by repeating the material covered when mastering other Thus, this section was worked out to the point of automaticity.

It is necessary to first clarify the terms of technical actions in the reception phases, which in the future will often be used in the section of self-defense without weapons (using the example of bending the arm behind the back against a blow from below with a knife).

Parry attacks: – stopping the attacking hand or object with a hard block (in this case, with the opposite forearm (Fig. a)

Fixation: grabbing a threatening limb (in this case, the elbow from above) with the free hand in order to prevent it from being pulled back for a second attack (Fig. b)

Neutralization enemy: - an action that allows you to exercise complete control over the enemy) (Fig. c)

For complete control, an additional grip of the opponent is required by the far shoulder from behind or by the throat (hair, eyes).

In this section, there is no parrying such as “fork” with a hand, “fork” with hands (S. A. Seliverstov, 1997), since they lead to injuries to the defending hand. Crossing the forearms leads to the inability to perform a technique due to a change in the attacking hand. Parrying with a subsequent blow instead of fixing the attacking hand (V.N. Lavrov, 1995) leads the defender to repeatedly solve the problem of defense anew.

a – parrying when defending against a knife strike from below.

b – fixation of the elbow of the attacking hand with the same hand from above.

c – neutralization by bending the arm behind the back.

1. Protection from direct (from below) knife blows to the stomach, chest, neck (Fig. 3.2)

Rice. 3.2. Bend your arms behind your back. Parrying (stopping) the opponent's right hand with the left (opposite) forearm down. Fixing the elbow with the right hand from above. Kick - bend your arms behind your back. With your freed hand, press on the opponent’s throat from behind (grab by the hair, eye sockets)

It should be borne in mind that if this condition is not met, the opponent can turn in the direction of the captured hand and carry out a “mill” extension through the shoulders.

2. Protection from knife strikes from above (Fig. 3.3)

Parrying (stopping) with the opposite forearm up (from the inside).

Fixing the forearm of the attacking hand with the same hand using an underhand grip.

Kick. Grab the wrist with both hands and pull the opponent past you. Cover the opponent’s attacking shoulder with the shoulder of the opposite hand and press down with your chest onto the elbow of the attacking hand.

Rice. 3.3. Lever the elbow with the chest from above against a knife strike from above.

3. Protection from a backhand knife strike to the lower sector using the elbow lever with the chest on top (Fig. 3.4)

Parrying (stopping) with the forearm of the same name from the outside - down.

Fixing the attacking forearm with the other hand. Turn the palm of the same hand upward so that you can grab the attacking hand at the wrist. Pull the opponent past you and pull the elbow lever with your chest down.

4. Defense against backhand knife strikes in the upper sector using the elbow lever with the chest on top using a double block with the forearms (Fig. 3.5)

Parry (stop) with both forearms outside of you. Fixing the attacking forearm with both hands. Pulling the opponent past you - lever the elbow with the chest down.

5. Technical and tactical actions in response to the attacker’s resistance to “bending his arm behind his back” (Fig. 3.6)

Parry with the opposite forearm down from the inside. Fixing the elbow of the attacking hand from above with the same hand. From a distracting kick - an attempt to bend the arm behind the back.

If there is resistance, grab the hand from below with the same hand, pressing with your thumbs on the depressions of the bases between the index and middle fingers, the little finger and the ring finger. With your little fingers, press your wrist downwards - towards you, and with your thumbs onto your hand - away from you.

Rice. 3.6. “Press up” the hands by bending the arm behind the back (a, b, c, d – combination and e – detail)

6. Technical and tactical actions in response to resistance to “pressure” of the hand (Fig. 3.7)

When resisting the pressure of the hand from an unsuccessful bend of the arm behind the back, carry out a distracting kick. While stepping away from the opponent, apply the elbow lever with your chest on top.

7. Technical and tactical actions in response to the attacker’s resistance to the “lever of the elbow with the chest on top”

If the opponent resists the elbow lever with the chest from above, carry out a distracting kick. Stretch the captured arm upward and then repeat the attempt to leverage the elbow with your chest down (Fig. 3.8).

Rice. 3.8. A combination where the opponent resists the elbow lever with the chest from above by deceiving him into pressing the wrist with a kick to the leg.

8. Technical and tactical action against a knife strike from below with the attacking hand sliding upward

When parrying an attacking hand that strikes from below with a knife, the opponent's hand may slide up the blocking forearm.

In this case, the hand of the blocking hand is turned palm up, with the thumb outward so as to grab the forearm from the inside. With your free hand, grab the opponent’s hand from top to bottom so that you can subsequently place it on the forearm of your hand holding the opponent’s hand at the wrist.

At the same time, carry out the side step so that the opponent is stretched along the support (Fig. 3.9).

Rice. 3.9. Lever of the elbow through the forearm when the arm slides up in the process of bending the arm behind the back.

9. Technical and tactical action against a knife strike from above with the attacking hand sliding down

When parrying an attacking hand that strikes from above with a knife, the opponent's hand may slide down the blocking forearm.

In this case, use your blocking hand to grab the attacking forearm with your thumb down. With your free hand, grab the opponent's arm from below at the elbow. At the same time, step towards the opponent’s free hand and perform an exit rotation, placing the elbow of his hand on your shoulder or in the crook of your elbow (Fig. 3.10).

Rice. 3.10. Lever of the elbow over the shoulder with a twist when the attacking hand slides down in the process of beating the hand when striking with a knife from above.

If the opponent resists the lever over the shoulder, turn in the opposite direction and move the elbow lever through the bend of the elbow with the side step (Fig. 3.11.).

Rice. 3.11. Elbow lever through the crook of the elbow while resisting the elbow lever over the shoulder.

10. The problem of increasing the reliability of protection against knife attacks

In the process of an in-depth study of this problem, it was possible to note interesting facts of mass misconception when assessing the degree of effectiveness of protection against knife attacks.

During competitions in the self-defense section, it was revealed that the slightest resistance from a partner simulating an attack confuses the examinee. A typical attacker's resistance to arrest is stiffness of the shoulder and forearm muscles. But even with such measured resistance, only those examinees who have previously practiced sambo, judo, freestyle or Greco-Roman wrestling successfully cope.

Another, more disconcerting factor is the withdrawal of the attacking hand when the defender tries to grab it (especially when striking from below). In these cases, an attempt to retaliate with a strike to the solar plexus or chin (according to the description of the technique on the ticket) allows the opponent to re-attack with a knife.

There are cases when the defender, not recognizing in time where the blow will come from, uses a differentiated parry (hitting from the outside with the elbow up or hitting from the outside with the elbow down), as suggested by V.N. Lavrov (1995), as a result of which the defense is disrupted and the defender is, by and large, stabbed to death.

In connection with the above, the reader is offered a unified defense that significantly increases the reliability of the defender’s actions.

11. Unified parrying of knife strikes from below, direct to the chest, neck or strikes from above (Fig. 3.12)

Recently, much attention has been paid to knife fencing in the literature on martial arts (Liang Yi Xuan, 1994, etc.). Therefore, not only straightforward attacks with a knife are possible, but also unexpected attacks with a knife from any hand, from below or from above. The most dangerous is a direct blow with a knife to the chest (neck) with a direct diagonal grip (A. E. Taras, 1999). For this purpose, it is necessary to master a unified defense with the expectation that the most unexpected and short blow is delivered by the blade from the thumb (from below or straight).

Rice. 3.12. Unified protection against knife strikes from below and direct strikes to the chest and neck.

When attacking the opponent’s hand from below, in a circular motion, turn your hands with your palms up to the sides and raise them to the level of your neck. With your palms facing down, lower them until they meet the attacking hand. The palms should overlap each other in order to prevent an attack from an unexpected direction.

In the case when the enemy’s hand attacking from below comes out to attack from above (with a blade from the little finger), the hands that were preparing to defend against a blow from below turn with their palms up and block the attack from above (Fig. 32).

Rice. 3.13. Unified protection against any knife attacks.

In this picture (look carefully) a complex case is shown where the attacker first imitates a direct blow to the throat with a knife. In any case, the defender organizes defense against such a blow (since it is the shortest and therefore dangerous).

When the attacking hand comes from below to chest level, it is difficult to recognize the method of striking according to the recommendation of V.P. Volkov (1940), since it is not always possible to visually grasp the method of gripping the knife. In addition, on an upward trajectory, the attacker (as is now fashionable) can throw the knife with the blade towards the little finger and will be ready to strike from above. The defender's hands, once lower than the opponent's, can quickly reorient themselves to defend against an overhead strike. If you wait for the moment when you can recognize the direction of the blow (from above or below), the knife strike will be missed.

We will not consider protection from knife attacks using a police baton (Yu. E. Maryashin, 1990) or, even better, a machine gun, out of respect for the logic of the section “Self-Defense” without weapons." Recommendations for using a bag belt to protect against a knife also fall into this category.

In this section, after mastering the elementary coordination of movements when parrying knife blows and fixing the attacking limb, it is no coincidence that we first propose the study of techniques for responding to typical methods of resistance by the enemy when the defender attempts to arrest him.

The fact is that actions associated with proprioceptive-motor coordination at the level of thoracic motor skills are easier to master (N. A. Bernstein, 1991).

Only after mastering technical-tactical actions at the dynamic level should one study and practice more complex technical-tactical actions at the visual-motor level - parry variations in changing situations.
