Meeting (8/9/2012)

The meeting began at 8:30, in this meeting, the unit members were introduced to self defense education.

The self defense session started off with warming up.


Then, the unit members were introduced to the taekwando blocks. These are used to stop or deflect
an incoming attack. They engage various parts of the arm with the hand and are held in different positions such as knife-hand, closed fist etc.



 Next up, the hand attacks were demonstrated. Taekwondo hand strikes are performed as a close distance alternative to kicks.Hand strikes make up fast combinations of strikes which can leave an opponent stunned and unable to defend himself.


 Then, some kicks were introduced. All kicks can be executed as jump kicks, spin kicks, jump spin kicks or multi-rotational spin kicks.
