Why do you want to learn how to fight?

Is this just a general desire, or do you have a specific self-defense need?

In other words, you need to tailor your learning to your needs. If you want some fighting skills just in case, that’s one thing, but if you are being picked on, right now, that’s something completely different.

Any site that says it’s “the” way to fight probably isn’t a good fit for you. And after all, you need to find something for your needs.

For example:

1. The newsletter on this site Punch Harder — Improve Your Punches Now will give you advice on how to end a fight quickly, how to win a fight with one move (not all the time), how to hit harder, how to punch faster, and so on. It’s geared to all levels.

2. If you are a beginning martial artist who is looking to be able to defend himself or herself better, then you should sign up for AdvantageMartialArts.com

This is a Free Martial Arts Newsletter geared toward beginning and intermediate practitioners.

3. If you happen to be more of an advanced fighter already and just want tips to keep you jazzed and enthusiastic about your skills, then try Martial Arts Mastery. It’s one of the longest-running martial arts ezines on the Internet.

4. Are you looking for some quick, hand-to-hand combat lessons? Need some basics, and you are prepared to learn how to fight dirty? Then try the hand-to-hand combat course. It’s free, as well.

5. If you have always been fascinated by those who could easily control an attacker with a wrist lock or a joint lock, then you’ll love this site. It offers both free and paid resources. Go to WristLocksExpert.com

Really Learn How to Fight

If you really want to learn how to fight, then you are going to have to put some time into it. But you can save yourself some hassle, if you match your search to your goals.

Are you interested purely in self-defense? Or are you planning on competing in tournaments?

Will you be taking lessons locally? Or will this be a home-study self-defense course?

Do you have a practice partner? (I highly advise that you work out with someone. This is the only way to get the true feeling of reacting and responding to actual kicks and punches.)

By the way, feel free to contact me, Keith Pascal. I’ll try to point you in the right direction, if I can.
