How To Defend yourself from a front choke hold
Weapons • Hand Combat
These are some front choke release techniques. If you are being choked and you need to get your air way open NOW, these are simple techniques anyone can do. If you can reach, there is a little spot at the base of the throat between the collar bones, that you can jab in to with a finger or two. This will send your attacker back, causing a great deal of pain and may even stop his own breathing. Try to find this 'hurt spot' on yourself. Another great technique that most don't know or think about is the very sensitive nervous system that lies just under the skin behind the arms, from the elbows up to the arm pit. Pinching just a bit of skin and giving it a twist will send those nerves a jolt and will cause your attacker to release.
