The
instructor of the martial arts / self-defense demo recently held at the West
Chester YMCA posted video of some of the event to Facebook. I previously
discussed posting video of the techniques he teaches to people with
disabilities (which he also uses) on this blog, and took the liberty of sharing
video on the PhillyACCESS Facebook page.
Unfortunately, I was unable to embed the video into a blog
post (at least into a PhillyACCESS post, as it kept going into another blog of
mine). I will add it to this post later if I can figure out how to do it.
The
techniques in the specific video that we have on the Facebook page are
advanced, and, unfortunately, the audio is difficult to hear. But I thought it
was a good opportunity to really show readers what is possible in the self-defense
area.
I
actually took the beginner portion of the class
taught at the Y this past spring. I was a bit skeptical that it would benefit me
due to my cerebral palsy, but by the end of the class I definitely felt that I
had learned some valuable skills.
