Self Defense The US Coast Guard Way

Lee, the HD of the other tower was in the US Coast Guard for a few years before he goes to college. So last night after the staff meeting, at Brandon's request, he taught us self defense. The first one was reverse lock, which he claimed that I should know how to do with my eyes closed since I always travel solo.

I do not recall what the second one was called but the first step involved grabbing, twisting and pulling you-know-what. It was hilarious when Buder who played the attacker flinched when Lee made the motion. Not like he would actually grab it, but Buder did have a reason to be nervous, lol.

Lee also taught us how to block and throw punches, and how to break someone's elbow by using upper body or torso movements. He did a few fancy footworks that were beyond our capabilities, just like the ones we usually see in movies. Not surprising, considering the guy was trained to kill. Lee was also in the movie Bad Boys, by the way.
