In fact, a helmet would be easier to grab and torque.

Michael said that when they had the dojo in the police station in Germany, they often practiced with motorcycle helmets. Adds to the spook factor when you can’t see through the visor. Like the Terminator.

I still keep saying to myself during training – “remember NOT to use this move in real life on anybody I know!” It’s almost I have to put in a different box in my head – a box, that has to be pulled out on the most extreme occasion. I still think you have to train for sparring separately, almost as a separate sporting discipline, in a separate year.

Do you think this headgear is enough for protection?
