Palm Strike
A palm strike is a basic technique that can be used by women or anyone for self defense. This technique is best delivered to the chin or nose.
A woman can deliver a palm strike effectively, especially is she can throw her whole body in it!

With the palm facing downward, pull the fingers back toward your head. The impact area will be your palm heel.

You can execute this technique from any starting point, but if you can start with your hand by it's shoulder and snap out extending the elbow.

To use this method on a chin or nose should throw your attacker off balance. Always use maximum force when delivering it in a self defense situation.
