Self Defense Tips For Dorks
Self Defense Dorks - Watch more free videos
There is a definite overlap between the "dork" community and the "fag" community. Both communities get picked on a lot by taller, more coordinated, more masculine guys, often just for who we are or appear to be. A reader sent along the video above which illustrates some self-defense techniques for "Dorks" which could also come in handy in case of threatened violence due to perceived sexual orientation. The video features men, but I'm sure the moves illustrated here can be used by anyone.

Learning to fight and defend is vital. One good place to train is Yamasaki in Rockville:

I've never been, but I've considered taking lessons at the DC Self Defense Karate Association (http://www.dcsdka.org/), which is near 18th and Newton in Mount Pleasant. Has anyone heard anything about this place?
