I have no problem in fighting the heavy bag. My shots are strong and got correct form. But when I confront somebody my hands start to weaken and my voice drops.

Your videos help more than you know. Self defense is a must in the way the world is today. Knowing how to defend yourself and having that self confidence is key. That is what you bring to us. Thanks for this lesson and breaking it down for us. You are the man!!

I froze in a streetfight after throwing one combo. Thanks Nick

[Mr.Honest]

But what if you know how to fight but when the adrenaline kicks in it’s so intense that it paralyzes you anyway?

[famousforever]

This works 100% of the time!

The reality is, you jist have to say "fuck it and MAKE yourself fight with all you are worth. Fuck it, I'm gonna get hit, it's gonna hurt and the only way to reduce the damage is to hit the other person as many times as you can. Focus on what you will be doing, not what the other person may do to you. If you can't reach that "fuck it" moment and force yourself to throw that firat punch, knowing you're going to keep punching, kicking, biting, eye gouging, you're definitely going to freeze up and turtle.

Talk yourself into it. Push thoughts of getting hit out of your mind, force yourself to refocus on that "fuck it" thought and jump into action before you talk yourself out of it. Its the same mind set you get before doung anything youre afraid of doing. Jumping off of the high dive platform or the cliff into the water, going on the roller coaster when you're afraid of heights, it's the same mindset that you have used in the past to force yourself into doing whatever you were afraid to do but did it anyways.

Don't over think it. Don't allow yourself to talk about what you're afraid will happen. Just KNOW, you're about to throw a bunch of punches and visualize how and where you're about to throw that first strike and how you will follow up with more. Everyone has the power to control their thoughts. Don't allow your mind to go there when doubt tries to creep in and you 100% will be able to fight without freezing up!

i know self-defense it's just that im scared

[bidyutbikashtalukdar]

When in fight unleash your inner ape and destroy your opponent till he become a piece of meat

[mrhunterf]

Wow, I know I've been attacked in the street and I froze up. I blackout it's horrible.

[omarben]

there are moments when we might chicken out and get afraid of an opponent who is just taller and having a sharp voice when shouting, this doesn't make him stronger, by the way. The key is building self-confidence by preparation and training. Mr Drossos, I want to thank you for your generosity and having to share with us your precious knowledge and experience.

I fudged and peed my pants at the same time in a street fight and the attacker laughed and walked off.

[forcerecon]

greetings from kalamata greece Nick i watch all your videos you are great.

[thestar]

That time a guy was yelling at me threatening me then i froze, till this day i feel like a bitch.

[Pious_servant]

That's a biggest concern, even tho I have all weapons and training but when I'm in real situation I get panic attack anxiety duck voice

[DrkCoat]

Amazing video Nick. As always it is packed with knowledge. Could you make video on what to do when seeing a street fight. For example if you see someone being attacked or seeing a loved one being attacked, what can we do to help ? Thanks Nick

[aarionlynch]

I know the feeling but once it's on its on. That goes away and now i want to hurt you. But first response to a street fight should be running. Keep your cardio up.

[senseiandrew]

Great video as always, would you be able to teach self-defense techniques for effective enough for middle and/or high school students, but are not lethal? Nowadays, when students get into fights at school, both kids/parties involved are punished. To prevent the situation from escalating to court, I'm just curious what you would teach pre-teens and teens. Thanks.

[birdiebowkett]

Thanks Nick your so relaxed and fun and a real good badass. Can u tell me if say a much younger person was walking alone and someone tries to grab them throw them into the car etc can u do a video i think it would help younger degeneration be aware of things

[Tobyh]

Ever since I got stabbed I freeze untill I get hit and I want to go back to not freezing it's so hard especially the environment I live in I can't afford to freeze so if any one has any tips to get out of this freeze response cos my joints just lock up and I can't throw the a bang

[ghosttown]

Afraid of getting knocked maybe so what should i do?

[MysteriousPotatoe]

This short kid started hitting my ribs with his weird punches in a fight and I did not expect that so I froze
