INF: Mind Power – Secret Strategies for the Martial Arts
by Kazumi Tabata
What fascinated me about this book is that it describes how things happen in slow motion to the experienced Martial Artist in an attack situation.
This is exactly what happened to me when I was attacked once at around 10pm on George St. About 10 young men came along the street looking for trouble.
One of these was actually pushing me once, when I noticed that everything was slowing down. I remember considering using a straight Mae-Geri aiming at his stomach, but then thought that I cannot risk that he gets up again, so I chose a Shuto-Uke to his throat.
After the decision was made I blocked his next attempt to push me around by grabbing his wrists and bending it backwards.
For some reason that was enough to convince him and his friends to back off.
