		<description>Yes, I have taught pregnant women self-defense. But I did not let anyone strike them. Though I did let them defend against the attacker. We kept it light touch, but did a lot of repetition to help the ladies remember.

		<description>hello,

this will depend greatly upon what is available where you are.

start with the police department. they typically offer self defense courses that will at least give you an idea of the types of situations you might face. you can then select a system or systems to build specific skill sets in accordance with your needs.

systems that typically work well for women:

pekiti tirsia kali
sayoc kali
cabales serradas
inayan escrima
presas arnis
serak silat
bukti negara silat
bersilat

these are involve a lot of &quot;dirty fighting&quot; as well as huge weapon components.

jiujitsu
hapkido
sambo

these grappling systems involving joint manipulations. good way to control attackers.

muaythai
bando

these are striking systems that are very aggressive. they are simple and effective.

start with the police and work from there. no doubt you will be able to get some good training. will likely be fun for you too!

thanks&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>I have never had any start while pregnant, but have had a few over the years that continued to practice after they discovered that they were. The only thing I have ever been leery about is allowing sparing while pregnant. To much of a risk of taking a hard shot to the abdomen. Accidents do happen.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;1st degree Black belt Chung Do Kwan

		<description>For self defence I would say &quot;Hapkido&quot; because it does not require super strength and it is easy to perform and learn it is very effective, because face it we all have joints and when they get twisted it hurts a lot. Karate is also good because of all the blocking and mental strength. And Spetsnaz is very effective and easy to perform although you will pretty much only find it in russia I would say that Hapkido is very good. But the most effective for me would be Krav Maga, it&#039;s a crazy self defence system developed in israel to protect you against anything, Even a handgun! Good luck Hope this Helps!&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;Kickboxer/self defence</description>
