What would be the most effective strategy to use when you find yourself in a physical altercation with someone, to ensure that you come out of it unscathed?

My strategy in this situation would be to remain calm, assess the situation, and attempt to diffuse the tension by talking. If verbal de-escalation is unsuccessful, I would use a combination of non-violent defense techniques such as blocking, evading, and controlled interpersonal grappling if necessary. The goal would be to end the altercation without causing any injuries or further escalation of violence.

If you find yourself in a physical altercation with someone, the most effective strategy is to try and defuse the situation. Remain calm, do not make any sudden movements, and seek to deescalate the conflict by talking it out. If that is not possible, focus on defending yourself while attempting to minimize any harm that may come your way. Aim for pressure points and strategic targeting rather than simply swinging wildly and put yourself in the best possible position to come out unscathed.
