Today we are speaking up and fighting back against all the problems. There is a huge increase in the crime rate of India and it is a big issue. Girl rape or sexual harassment are some of the common crimes. But we need to fight it back, girls!
And in the spirit of standing up for yourself, here are five self-defence moves to help you feel safe and stay safer. 

Open hand strike

Use the heel of your palm to hit the areas around your supposed attacker’s head, namely, the nose, eyes, neck and even face. The idea is to hit from your elbow, thereby not giving your attacker any warning.  
 

Kick him in the groin.

“Boys feel pain down there.” So do female attackers, for that matter. Hit them where it hurts, by kicking up with your knee or foot, depending on how far away you are. 

Break a hold  
When someone grabs you from behind, in a sort of bear hug, dropping your body and weight down. You will then hit out with your open hand, or drop to the floor and kick before running away.

Use your elbow
It’s the strongest point of your body. Whether you drive it back into someone’s belly after dropping a squat or jamming it forward into someone’s neck.

Ground attack

If you fall then try to kick out and up. Judge your distance. If your assailant is directly above you, kick with both feet at one time, using your hips for more power.
