Arnis Sticks

Seniors should be trained to protect themselves, weapons or none. Nevertheless, there are some weapons that they can still use.

Self defense is an issue that is alive and well in today's panic stricken planet, and we all need to defend ourselves and keep ourselves safe and secure. We also need to do this no matter where we are in the world, and no matter how old we are. However, as we grow older, we also lose our dexterity and reflexes, and we may easily be victims of violent crimes. Older people, however, should not be left out of self defense: they should still be trained to protect themselves and to arm themselves well. Thankfully, there are programs out there that train seniors to keep themselves secure and safe through self defense.

There are also martial arts weapons out there that even seniors could use to help them in self defense. For instance, there are knives that are lightweight and are easy to handle, so that someone with bad reflexes or poor eyesight can still use it. If you are interested in such knives, ask your security retailer about knives that are easier to handle over and above butterfly knives (which can be difficult to unfold and then fold again if you are not an expert) as well as simple daggers (which can wound seniors who might pull things out in panic). Some knives can be used with the push of a button, and are as easily disarmed.

Staffs and short sticks can also be good weapons for seniors. For instance, bamboo "arnis", or even a shillelagh can be useful for seniors for a good, serious thwack to the head of an opponent. However, if they are too heavy, then seniors may look for other stick weapons that are not as heavy but that can still deliver blows, such as a simbat (from Southeast Asian martial arts). If these are too heavy or bulky, then there are whips, which can deliver quite frightening blows even with little effort. Law enforcement officers in Japan also used a light stick called a jutte (today used in juttejutsu), which can deliver deadly blows.

There are actually many martial arts weapons out there that seniors can be trained to use. Even brass knuckles are considered part of martial arts literature and collections, so seniors can still be allowed to and trained to use them. For more information, look for a weapons retailer, who might also know trainers who can help seniors defend themselves. In this day and age, we all need to be safe and protected.

Some martial arts weapons are built so that even seniors can use them easily. Look for some at TBO-Tech Self Defense Products.
