- So the first scenario we see is covering the strategy at its basics. So it's just a
verbal confrontation, a violent rebel confrontation. And we see the overall
strategical that if it's anyhow possible not to be wolfed in those physical
attacks. Just leave the scene. Check it out.

- So, when we see this scenario, it's not being a coward or being a sissy leaving
the situation. It's the best thing in our point of view that you can do. So don't
hesitate to leave the scene, run away if you see maybe I can't handle it or even if
you think you can handle it, just try to leave the scene. That's the overall
strategical. Now what we take a look at is how we do train those situations or how we
do train for the pre-conflicts zone, how what to do with your hands, what to do
with your image, how you look, how you present yourself, and what to do with your
platform, which can cause or gives you an advantage if the physical attack finally
really start. But now for us in the pre-conflict cycle, what to do with your
structure and to prepare yourself for maybe a violent confrontation. What we
want to show you now is a couple of non-combative positions relevant or
analogy to your level of awareness. Depending on how far your attacker is
away, if it's like five, six, seven meters, there's no need for getting into a
combat stance right now because this causes the problem that he might see that
you want to fight him, you know. We don't want to cover those subjects so far, It's
just a defensive way of non-combative stance.
- So just keep your level of awareness very high but don't use like aggressive
combat stances. So cover up positions, a couple of positions we wanna show you now
is just, you know, you bring your hands on your hips, you bring your chest out high
and your head up high too. This is one position. The next is maybe this one. You
cross your hands in front of your body. The next position is that you raise your
hands up high a little bit more in front of your chest but still being smart, not
being aggressive, just being smart, and then you can communicate with him, Okay?
The next thing, if hes using the distance to you, we need more awareness and more
positioning, you know. It's maybe to bring your hands in front of you and communicate
with him with your palms outside just to slow down his actions and to tell him,
"Hey, guy, I don't want to have any problem with you. Please stop this. " You
know. If he's creating or increasing the distance more, he's coming very close to
us, we bring in from our point of view a more emotion psychology highest structure,
you know, that we really go into a position to still defensive, but it's
still active, ready to go if we have to. So how you can teach or how you can train
this. Just take here a mirror, maybe at home, and just fluently train those
positions. It's just like standing in front of the mirror. You watch yourself
and your face covering your image like your look, your vision, your head, this,
this...

What we have already done in the dry drills, now we train with a partner.
Depending on his distance,we try to cover all those non-combative stance positions.
Okay, we check it out.
[music]
- What we take now is the last drill and now we do it in a more fluent motion just
to keep connected all the positions we try to train.
[music]
- So now we do the drill in the last version. Up to now, we haven't had any
type of communication inside. So now my attacker has allowed to put me on above
stress. And I try to work with my image, with my body language, and with my hand
position and my structure, also with my platform. Okay? We try and check this out.
[speaking in foreign dialect]
- So one of the last points is that you finally get it into a real life scenario
just to close the gap, the reality gap that you always have in the training
environment.
- Now we take a look at the last scenario to that subject while we put up on top, we
put the strategic goal. So what we covered in the beginning of the material, what's
your strategic goal? It's maybe to leave the if it's not possible and not needed to
fight your opponent. We'll try to do this so first of all, somebody in the street,
he's putting threats on you while he's contacting you verbally, you adapt, you
see the problem is coming up then you play with your whole body mechanics, you play
the drill and put on top strategic goal that you leave the scene if possible.
We try to do this.
[speaking in foreign dialect]
Okay, the next drill we train by ourselves is how to move forward, backward using
those positions for your advantage. So, we show the drill now like a dry fire drill.
We show you that and just check this out. So we have the stance, the different
versions of the stance that we are using to be smart, to be calm, bring your
opponent down, to relax. If it's needed to force a little bit more or calm down
again, being smart again and relax the situation. Now we do the dry fire drill
for that. This means I'm normally walking forward and backward and using for those
positions for my advantage. So, use this...
