Product Description
Created by Tayah Kansik, personal trainer and self-defense expert, Self-Defense for Women is a beginner-level program teaching effective self-defense tactics in a dynamic non-stop, non-partner workout format. Tayah s program is rooted in the proven personal defense techniques of boxing and mixed martial arts. Moves are easy to follow and doable for a wide range of ages and fitness levels. Each move and sequence of defensive actions is explained step-by-step, demonstrated with a partner and practiced solo. In addition to all the self-defense techniques, Tayah s workout includes a warmup, mobility exercises, stretches, and a cooldown. Tayah s self-defense Technique Workshop (35 minutes) includes jab and cross, hooks, uppercuts, elbows, pushkicks, knee strikes, and body kicks. Partner demonstrations focus on understanding target strike areas, directions, and angles while keeping the pace of the workout. The Applications section (25 minutes) strings the moves learned in the Technique Workshop into combinations and matches them to real-life situations of confrontation. Tayah teaches how to evade and deflect punches using boxing blocks combined with elbow and knee strikes and kicks. Attack-defense scenarios include grabs (hair grabs, clothes grabs, head lock), takedowns, and ground fighting.

Speak softly and carry a big..PUNCH *%#$@! November 10, 2008

World Dance New York adds to their great body politics section with "Self Defense for Women " technique and workout by Tayah Kansik. Aside from blood curdling screams, or perfuming an attacker while mistakingly reaching for mace, just invest in your personal safety and learn this self defense technique for only a few dollars and in the privacy of your own home. This self defense program can also tone and strengthen your arms, and legs. It is very well detailed with plenty of repetitions which will improve reaction time. This method is user friendly. The instructor and her partner execute each move well and move with ease to visually guide you in using your body in self defense. Learning self defense is priceless, and can save your life.
I viewed the entire program before trying it out. The segments are taught as one on one and from a defense point of view in probable case scenario as the instructor and her assistant execute the moves.
The program is divided into upper and lower body training.
You will find:
Basic position and basic boxing moves , foot work
Stretches for quad, hamstrings, arms
Push kicks, knee, and body kicks
Hooks uppercut boxing combos, footwork
Jab, elbow shots, hook and elbow shot s and uppercut
The technique section begins with a warm up
Combo1: incorporate "the roll" while defending from a direct attack
Combo 2: defending from a punch directed at you, clothes and hair grab defender, head lock defender, and properly applying the technique.
Included are takedowns, ground work, illustrated with instructor and partner.
Also a cool down with gentle yoga stretches. I thoroughly enjoyed this program and will continue to view it as to improve my skills, and be less fearful walking to my car at night.

And with the plague of home invasions these days, don't stay home without it!
What this DVD teaches us is aggressiveness and speed, the 2 things that will save us in an attack. At a beginner's level, a complete lesson on what to do in the event of an assault is practically impossible, because of the unpredictability of the assailant, but if you keep practicing these moves, you'll be prepared to counter with a swift response, an assertive stance, and some good kicks and punches. It has been proven that if you seem vulnerable and defenseless you will be more susceptible to being assaulted, so the attitude you present to the world is very important.
Tayah Kansik has a great attitude; a very attractive English self-defense expert, she exudes self-confidence and assurance, and has a terrific resume in having taught self defense to the police force and others. Also on this DVD is Mr. Will, very patiently standing in as a human punching bag, and falling repeatedly with those nasty kicks to the back of the leg Tayah deftly gives him.
You get a warm up, a lot of basic boxing moves, and the defenses while being grabbed are excellent, where often one's natural inclination would be to back away, but instead Tayah shows how it is best to sometimes move into it to get out of it. As Tayah recommends, you should build up speed by practicing these moves. It's my opinion you'll also get stronger and feel more confident, and just by this attitude alone, be less likely to be caught in the horrendous situation of being attacked.
