Self defence

Self-defense techniques and recommended behavior under the threat of violence is systematically taught in self-defense classes. Commercial self-defense education is part of the martial arts industry in the wider sense, and many martial arts instructors also give self-defense classes. While all martial arts training can be argued to have some self-defense applications, self-defense courses are marketed explicitly as being oriented towards effectiveness and optimized towards situations as they occur in the real world. Many systems are taught commercially, many tailored to the needs of specific target audiences (e.g. defense against attempted rape for women, self-defense for children and teens). Notable systems taught commercially include:

Civilian versions of modern military combatives, such as Krav-Maga, Defendo, Spear, Systema
Jujutsu and arts derived from it, such as Aikijujutsu, Aikido, Bartitsu, German ju-jutsu, Kodokan Goshin Jutsu.
Model Mugging
Traditional unarmed fighting styles like Karate, Taekwondo, Kung fu, Hapkido, Pencak Silat, etc. These styles can also include competing.
Traditional armed fighting styles like Kali Eskrima and Arnis. These include competing, as well as armed and unarmed combats.
Street Fighting oriented, unarmed systems, such as Jeet Kune Do, Kajukenbo, Won Sung Do and Keysi Fighting Method
