People take up martial arts classes for spiritual reasons, as a form of exercise or maybe because they want to fight in martial arts competitions. Mostly, however, 1) B) martial arts teach you ways to protect yourself when in danger. But how do martial arts help you improve your self-defence? Firstly, it must be noted that you should use martial arts techniques only when it is necessary. For example, if a mugger snatches your bag, don't put up a fight. Indeed, many people say that the best martial arts experts 2) G) never have to use self-defence techniques in their lifetimes. The most important self-defence skills are being aware of your surroundings, as well as the ability to run away from a threatening situation. Having that said, even the most careful person can be physically attacked, 3) A) and that is when a martial arts technique can save you from harm. Obviously the best martial arts techniques to learn are defensive rather than attacking techniques. You should concentrate on defending yourself and giving yourself enough time to run away 4) D) rather than violently trying to harm your attacker. You should also note that you usually have a very short period of time 5) C) to defend yourself from an attack. Therefore you should try to learn hand-to-hand combat techniques rather than kicking techniques (like the ones used in Taekwondo or Savate). The hands are far quicker than the legs and attackers usually grasp the upper body. It is also best to try to learn techniques that do not need a lot of strength. Most martial arts include defensive techniques but, 6) E) taking all the points discussed above into account the best martial arts to take up are the Korean martial art Hapkido and the Japanese martial art Aikido.

"The Art of Self-Defence" explains that martial arts are pursued for various reasons, including spiritual growth, exercise, or competition. However, primarily, martial arts teach individuals how to protect themselves in dangerous situations.
The text emphasizes that martial arts techniques should only be used when necessary. For example, if someone steals your bag, it’s better not to fight back. Many experts argue that the best martial artists rarely need to use their self-defence skills in real life. The most vital skills are awareness of your surroundings and the ability to escape from threats. Still, even cautious people can be attacked, and in such cases, martial arts techniques can help stay safe.
It is recommended to focus on defensive techniques rather than offensive ones, aiming to create an opportunity to run away instead of harming the attacker. Since there is often very little time to react during an attack, learning hand-to-hand combat is preferable over kicking techniques like Taekwondo or Savate, because hands are faster and attackers often hold the upper body. Techniques that do not require much strength are also best.
Among martial arts, Hapkido and Aikido are highlighted as ideal options because they focus on defensive methods that involve joint twisting to control opponents. Whichever martial art you choose, consistent practice is essential to develop quick, automatic responses. Ultimately, the most important skills are common sense and intuition, which help you avoid dangerous situations altogether.
