Sometimes you just can't avoid a confrontation.  So . . . here's an instructional video that goes a long ways towards teaching you how to defend yourself . . .

See the original video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jeu6bXxTwfk.  Honestly, I never would have imagined demonstrating fighting techniques with a toddler, but it's cute and educational in an oddly weird way.

All the best,
