hi everyone, im new so please bear with me. i live in canada and have been thinking alot about issues such as self defence and home protection and such. now being in canada, gun ownership isnt really a solution to anything due to the storage and transportation laws we have. so what would you suggest in terms of alternatives for self defence? what kinds of martial arts are better than others? any that focus on issues such as knife disarmament, etc.? ive been reading lots of forums and knives dont seem like an ideal method of self defence, but is there training available for knives to give you an advantage should you ever absolutly need it?
i had an experience a few yrs ago at my previous workplace which had changed me, it was robbery at a restaurant, i was only 17 at the time, i just gave him the money. recently ive been going over it in my head thinking what i should have or could have done differently. now there was a counter in beween us so i was relatively safe and out of reach. but i always think "what if" and "what would i do?"
i realize my questions may be difficult but bear with me, ill improve!
thanks alot and i cant wait to hear some responses
