Cooling's Self Defense Techniques

My notes from Master Cooling's clinic in August. The names and nomenclature are my own. Founder's passport name was Shinkitse Shimabuko.

Front Bear Hug Escape
Ishinryu fist with the first knuckles into uki's sternum, cover the palm of the fist with the free hand so both arms can push into the sternum.

Momo Jime From the Rear Escape
Master Cooling has had to use this a couple of times as a police officer.

Bite Defense
Push uki's cheek between their molars with your thumb so that when they bit the gnash down on their own flesh. Not a Karate waza, learned it from a cat vet.

Kubi Kuki Shime
Inside hand does electric touch medial thigh half way between the hip and knee.

Rear Carotid Hold Escape
Held with right arm, grab the bicep and forearm clamp to chest, drop to right knee then left knee and throw over back.

Kasumi Dori
Index finger on top of the middle finger. In and down.

Clear Path Through Hostile Crowd
A backhand to the chest look like a gentle pat on the chest with the back of the hand. Tense to hit then relax.

Handshake
Present your palm down makes it difficult for Texans to get a strong grip.
