Self Defense Against Multiple Attackers

There are 2 tricks to survive against multiple attackers, still better than do nothing:

- Hit nearest opponent first, mastering elbow-knee strikes & “dirty tactics” (like pressure point strikes or even bitting) are very helpful.




- Always moving. If you see any chance to escape, then run immediately (fighting is only option when you can’t run).




"Can wrestling type martial arts like Judo or BJJ work against multiple attackers?"

No, never!!

Wrestling arts like Judo-BJJ-Catch Wrestling-Sambo are need longer time to defeat 1 opponent. While you struggling with 1 thug focusly, the other thugs can hit/stab you!! Like these:



Martial art schools that teach multiple attackers defense skill like this are striking type martial arts like Boxing-Kungfu-Karate-Muay Thai because they can KO 1 opponent faster with a single blow one-by-one.


Weapon fighting schools like Fencing-Kenjutsu-Eskrima are also teach this skill because they can also kill 1 opponent fast with a single strike one-by-one.



Ancient Qin Na or Jujutsu masters are different, they learn wrestling arts along with striking arts (Cross Training). Like in Wuxia Kungfu or Ninja movies, those masters weren't just learned 1 martial art alone.



During ancient knight warfare eras, wrestling throws were used to ruining the full armored enemy in close combat, after the opponent fallen and lying on the ground then the knight stab him/her quickly then stand up again to fight with other enemies like these:




Totally different with wrestling in modern sport tournament right? Wrestling in ancient warfare eras wasn’t stand alone skill.
