CHOKE FROM THE FRONT WITH A
PUSH
Self-Defense
A choke with a push represents an added danger. In this case, a regular pluck
becomes more difficult because (a) you’re being pushed off balance and (b) the
shock of a sudden push may cause your hands to fly up and away from your
throat.
STARTING POSITION: Passive stance, with an attacker choking you from the
front.
1. To simulate stumbling backwards, lean back, off balance, and then step back
on one foot (usually the left foot will be easiest for training purposes). As you
step your left foot back, stab your right hand straight up to the sky. Your right
bicep/shoulder should be as close to your right ear as possible. This ensures that
you defend against the attacker’s wrist.
