In NDF techniques, which method is appropriate for the inside of the thigh?

In the context of NDF (Non-Deadly Force) techniques, striking with an empty hand, leg, or knee is the method appropriate for targeting the inside of the thigh. This area is considered sensitive and can be effectively engaged using control techniques that minimize the risk of serious injury while still providing a tactical advantage.

Utilizing an empty hand, leg, or knee allows for greater control and accuracy when applying force. The thigh, particularly the inner portion, has muscle mass that can absorb hits without causing substantial harm, making it suitable for non-lethal engagements aimed at creating openings or dissuading aggressive behavior.

Striking with a tube, fist, or foot could potentially lead to excessive force or unintended injuries. A tube strike may not provide the desired control, and a fist or foot strike could cause more pain or damage than intended, deviating from the principle of using non-deadly force appropriately. This focus on control and precision is critical in defensive tactics training, ensuring practitioners can safely and effectively manage encounters without escalating violence unnecessarily.
