How to Fight Like a ‘Ballerina’

This is a common Nightmares Scene: You’re alone – at night, perhaps, or waiting to meet someone in a bar – and someone is reached to you, looking at the loss. They are bigger than you, and you (perhaps, most likely) have never been in the fight before. What do you do?

It turns out that even experienced broilers are concerned about being assaulted. Hollywood’s stunt performer, Kara Mary Holyzian, is often wondering how he will respond – and he knows Jujitsu. And kickboxing. And Judo. “I think about these things when I’m out,” she says. “A, because of my work and b, because I want to keep myself protected.”

For his latest movie, John Week spinoff BellerinaCholazian had to fight like a person who trained to kill from childhood: he was a stunt double for Eve (starred Anna De Armus), A killer who is trying to avenge his father’s death. Ki scenes involved in the shoot-outs, hand-to-hand fights and even a flamethrover battle. D Armus and Cholazian in the movie, about 5’6 “, John Weeke himself to go to to-to-toota, played 6 feet tall ReevesThe

Choreography between the two, then, proved as an ampade-up version of what one can do when face to face big or strong. “Wondering what was fun for the film, ‘How do I win?’ ‘Cholazian said. “We wanted to make it as much real as possible, because the reality is that if I fight with a giant man I just won’t be able to hit him in the face and win.”

But what about the rest of us, who are not trained in war? Wired Cholazian asked for some tips on what the average person could do to protect themselves in the fight from hand to hand that they couldn’t escape.

Drop your butt (serious)

It may sound ridiculous but falling down right now can drop off-guard to your attacker. “If someone is about to fight with you, and then you are suddenly sitting on the ground,” he said, “They’re going to be like this,” what fak? “” He suggested a favorite step from his Zujitzu training: quickly floping on their legs; Hook your hands on the back of their ankles, rocked somewhat back and kick your two legs to their buttocks, use them to throw them flat. You can simply pull their ankles toward you; But if you can kick you can greatly improve your chances of reducing them.

Get to the top

If you were able to jump your attacker from their legs, hope they hit their heads on the way down. Use that moment to get up to them and then go to work with your elbow. (Your small fist will not be effective in fighting against someone bigger than you)))

Death by one thousand cut (or scratch or whatever)

In the end, you are trying to get out of your attacker until you can escape or get help – or ideally they give up. Cholyzian says use whatever techniques you can use. Gize their eyes, scratch them on their faces, knee knees. “One of my favorite is the fish hook,” he said, “he said with a finger to pull the face side of the face. “Something that can really begin to defeat them.”

Use your legs

If you do not get the results that fall on your back, you have other options. If you have pins on top of an advanced surface like a table, as it does BellerinaYou can use your attacker leverage and closeness. Get them by calling the stunt world a “triangle”. You know the steps; You’ve probably seen it before in the movie. To implement, to lift your hips, put a leg on the back of the person’s neck, then put your other leg around it, lock the knees around your ankle. Then press. “So his head is on my leg, his head stops,” is called a cholgian.

If you hold it correctly, anything can be a weapon

All over any fight, always look for tools that can help you. Cord on curling iron? Will do it A candle? Why not? It has worked ClueThe Cholazian says “If I am in a bar and I don’t believe in any circumstances, but the first thing I’m going to catch is is a bottle,”

If everything else is failing to go for

This is a step in which the Cholazian says that the big, powerful boy will go to the face of it: you kick them in the nuts. “It’s cliché é, but do you know? It works.”
