Importance of the skill

Why you should learn it and when to use it.

You may not see it now, but learning self defense has great importance.
It might not only be knowing how to punch, but how to kick or distract the enemy.
Punching is just a rather basic tool.
Its not anything too complex, something you can use easily for protection.
Remember, it may seem cool to know how to hit someone, this doesnt mean you start a fight.
Just use this to end a fight.
