ABSTRACT
Most people would agree on the assumption that a person who has achieved a black belt in martial arts should be able to defend himself rather well if needed. What you may not know is that one can learn the basic martial art skills to effectively defend oneself in a much shorter span of time than it takes to earn a black belt. While it is true that the more you practice anything, the better you get at it, you don’t necessarily have to become a black belt in martial arts to be able to learn and use black belt self-defense techniques.
