At the long range, and when possible, definitely you should try de-escalate and avoid the conflict. Preemptive attack when you see the intention, the ability and the tools of the opponent.
At the medium range and sometimes at the close range you can defend and counter-attack against the attempt of the grab.
Just when the opponent’s arm is touching you, you may have the possibility to avoid being grabbed, and counter-attack. You have been grabbed, bury your head towards the ribs of the opponent. Counter-attack as soon as you can to the groin. With the other hand, grab the far eye or press the upper lip. Pressure is backwards and down. Counter-attack as soon as you can. Don’t expose your head. Move away from danger-zone, and do the next thing you need to do.
Against the grab from behind, try to prevent the grab by turning towards the opponent and grabbing his hand, while counter-attacking him simultaneously. You should counter-attack to a vulnerable points as groin, solar plexus and the head.
Release from an arm bar choke from behind. This chokes puts a lot of pressure on the windpipe. As soon as possible turn strongly, all your body, towards the opponent. Emphasize strongly. Your chin should go over your shoulder. Raise the arms, raise your elbows high. You can even hit the opponent’s eyes with your fingers. Palms like hooks, pull the elbows down, bring the palms of the opponent to your sternum. Turn the whole body, get your head out, step to the side of the opponent and counter-attack with a knee to the groin area. Continue with more counter-attacks as needed, and move away from the danger zone. In this technique, usually the far hand is the first to land on the opponent’s palms. Avoid grabbing the wrist of the opponent. Grab his palms.
Releasing yourself from the carotid artery restraint. The opponent strangles with the forearm and with the upper arm. Send two palms backwards with the hooks, usually only hand can grab the opponent’s palms. Then, turn the elbow to the outside to create 90 degrees to the opponent’s forearm. Pull your elbow to your side, then you can turn your head and continue like in the previous technique. Remember, the chin should go to the shoulder. Take your head out from the opening, step to the side of the opponent and counter-attack first with a kick. Continue as needed.
Release from headlock from the front. The guillotine. Simultaneously, you are doing three actions. Grabbing the opponent’s palms with your far hand, striking to the groin with a closed hand. Your shoulder is circling and should be pressing the opponent’s palms down. Emphasize the pull of the opponent’s palms and the pressure of the shoulders on the palms. Turn your chin sideways as soon as you can. After the strike to the groin, strike upwards, elbow towards the opponent’s face. Turn your chin sideways and take the head out. Finish with other counter-attacks as needed, and move away from the danger zone.
