SUMMARY. To defend a standing guillotine choke--

1- HEAD UP! Would you rather be punched in the face or choked out? Hopefully, you can avoid both! But if you want to stay conscious in a fight, keeping your head up will make it trickier to grab.

2 - LOOK UP! If you do get caught looking down, arch your back and look to the sky. This will help you slip the choke and put your attacker's arm in an uncomfortable position.

3 - ARM OVER THE SHOULDER! To finish the choke, the bad guy usually needs to arch his back. By pulling down on his choking arm and throwing your free arm over his shoulder, you can keep him closer and make arching more difficult.

If your attacker gets frustrated and sloppy, you can also try throwing your arm over his head and turn the tides with a simple step-behind takedown.

Of course, never underestimate the guillotine! Even if you don't get choked, you can still get your neck wrenched.

So, focus on preventing trouble and keep your head out of danger! :)
