Q: Have you ever had to use your martial arts training in a real world experience?
A: Unfortunally yes. It was 2 years ago at a night club in Las Vegas. I was in a bad mood, and the club was super full. One guy started dancing behind me and at first i moved, I gave him the dirty look, and even kind of elbow him out of my way. He followed me over to my booth, and my boyfriend told him to leave me alone. Then he walks up and grabs my butt, full hands on... what a bad choice!... I warned him to back off, and the idiot, closed his fist, and threw a punch at me. I was able to take my face out of the way so that he only grazed me. My reflexes and training kicked in, and I threw a punch straight at his nose, followed instantly by a second one. He went straight down and the next thing I know I am on him with my elbows holding his arms, and I was head butting and elbowing his face. One of my guy friends broke it up, but I took my heel off and kicked him again, opening up a gash on his face.
The bouncers finally came in and eventually the guy was arrested( the cops kept looking at me and his face and couldn't believe that I did it). The guy's face was like hamburger and he had several broken bones
