Can An Assailant Sue You If They Get Injured For A Self-Defence Technique That One of Your Students Uses? [Video]

A guy called Graham Leigh who runs a self-defence and martial arts organisation has sent in a great question, which is basically, if I teach someone self-defence and then they use a skill I’ve taught them, which although is deemed to be reasonable in the circumstances, ends up seriously injuring their attacker, can the assailant sue me as the instructor?

So this video answers that question in full and thanks for sending that question in Graham.
