SD for Women - Choke underarm

 

A video demonstration is available at http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=tdOsi6iVfe4
 The assailant may attempt to subdue the victim by initially punching.

You will need to raise your head to see how the punch will come in. As it comes in, move your head to the side and slap the punch with the hand on the same side of the punch.

 This technique relies on the assailant committing a lot of force forward. As the punch is deflected by the slap, grab the arm and pull the assailant forward. 

 As the assailant falls forward, slip the other arm round his neck and secure the choke by grabbing the hand with other hand. To make the choke more effectively, press the side of your head against his upper arm so that it in turn presses against his throat

Wrap your legs around his waist to stop him wriggling or kneeing you whilst you cut off his breath.

    Great stuff, richyrich - thx 4 ur input.  Not too sure about the victim sitting  up since the attacker's weight is on her and his body is between her legs. But I agree - if the victim can maneourve to a superior position, the choke is easier.

    For this choke it should be noted that if the victim sits up "wrapping up" the choke becomes a lot easier. The choking position is alslo much tighter if the hand of the arm under the neck is placed in the crook of the free arm's elbow. Finally the hand of the free arm should be placed on the back of the one applying the choke's head and (the victim in this case) this allows for more pressure. Finally "squeeze" with both arms and the head inward (flexing the biceps helps a lot)!!!
