Suppose, for a moment, that you're standing in the middle of railroad tracks and a Metra train, such as this one in the Chicago suburbs, is coming right at you: What do you do to protect yourself from a horrible death? It's very simple but crucial.
Get out of the way.
In its most fundamental sense, this is T'ai Chi self defense. You are rooted, but stay light and agile on your feet, and simply slide out of an oncoming attack. You don't have to make a big leap, as the distance you need to move may literally just be inches and you are quickly out of harm's way.
