Rory Miller explains seven elements that must be addressed to adapt your self-defense training for the most common types of street violence. Any training that dismisses any of these areas leaves you vulnerable to a potentially deadly violent assault and you might be training yourself to go to jail. 1. Legal and ethical implications. Every martial artist must learn force law, and explore his or her own ethical limitations. Mr. Miller explores this issue so you may determine where this often-overlooked ethical line lies within yourself. 2. Violence dynamics. Unfortunately, many martial arts and self-defense classes do not train for reality-based violence, focused upon how attacks most-commonly happen. Mr. Miller teaches you to recognize an attack before it happens and know what kind of attack you are facing. 3. Avoidance. You will learn and practice escape and evasion, verbal de-escalation, and avoidance of dangerous situations. 4. Counter-ambush. In the unfortunate event that you are attacked unexpectedly, you will need a handful of actions trained to reflex level for a sudden violent attack. 5. Breaking the freeze. Freezing is almost universal in a sudden attack, even for experienced law personnel and expert martial artists. Students must learn to recognize a freeze and break out of one in order to react to an attack quickly. 6. The fight itself. Mr. Miller explains that your training needs to be in line with how violence really happens in the world. 7. The aftermath. There are potential legal, psychological, and medical effects of engaging in violence, no matter how justified. Any teacher or student of self-defense, and any person who desires a deeper understanding of violence needs to understand the concepts taught in this program.DVD all regions, region-free. ## Images ![Facing Violence - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81zzdBSpULL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must view for virtually anyone *by C***D on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 2, 2014* If you have a son (especially) or daughter between 14 and, say 24-28, I totally recommend you MAKE them watch this DVD "Facing Violence" by Rory Miller - it is not about fighting - it is about violence - how to avoid it and, when unavoidable, how to respond as well as how you will respond to unwanted encounters ... it is NOT a how to fight DVD... probably the opposite... I consider myself a fringe martial artist - I know a few "techniques" but I respond on instinct. As an adult I have had four encounters - prevailed (which in a few cases involved a few lucky strikes and a good set of legs...) in each one because I acted out of instinct / reflex but everything covered in this presentation is exactly true - even in other incidents like car accidents or when I encountered the bear this summer in Glacier National park almost all this rang true... The DVD really demonstrates situational awareness and what to expect when you are in an unexpected situation. I am going to share some of this with my students (I am a Biotech professor not a martial arts instructor) and encourage them to purchase this DVD. Highly recommended!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A MUST OWN *by T***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 19, 2013* I have read Rory Miller's book Facing Violence and like other reviewers this is a must own with the book. I thought the "Articulation Wars" and "Aftermath" talks were awesome. There is so much more information and tactics Miller can share that he can make DVDs on each topic alone and I hope he does in the future. Check out his book "Scaling Force" as well, another excellent work by him.Only drawbacks was there was this annoying low music being played in the background. It did not ruin the content at all but like I said it was noticeable. Miller could also have gone into more depth about "Articulation Wars" and Deescalation but I guess it's hard because of time constraints for one DVD.In closing it was very informative. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Eye opening *by J***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 13, 2014* This is the first of many videos I am buying from Rory Miller, He talks about practical self defense and how to prepare for an attack. Rory goes over things that I always knew but it didn't really hit me until he says it like how every training drill has its flaws, something I always knew but never thought too much about before.There are really no techniques shown its more about strategy.BOTTOM LINE, EVERYONE and I mean EVERYONE should watch this video, if you have done martial arts or not is irrelevant. This is a good DVD and I recommend it to anyone that I talk to about self defense. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/4608118-facing-violence](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/4608118-facing-violence) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-05-01*
