Tres Tew here. I'm an instructor at Yeshua's Ryu Martial Arts and on behalf of Expert Village,
I'm going to be showing you how to use your jacket or your hooded sweatshirt in a defense
situation. Now, using your hoodie again, like so, I'm going to show you how to defend yourself
against a down stab. This time, the downward stab is in back grip, so it's going to be
a little bit different. I'm going to break it down really slowly the first time. Nick
comes across and we are catching it just like this and following through. So, we are blocking
it and then giving in to wrap. From here, we roll it over and pull down. If this is
done fast (go ahead and get your knife), you can disarm very effectively. Also, if you
are able to (come again)
catch and wrap/cinch up right here, as you can see, I've got the part of the hood right
here. I'm able not only to disarm but to pull him to the ground. From here, I can come across
with a knee just like this and then break the arm. So that's a couple of ways to defend
yourself against a downward stab using your hood.
