Would you be up for this?
Halle Berry has recently stated that she thinks all mums should be trained in self-defence to better protect their children.
The actress told Good Morning America that self-defence is now a part of her regular workout routine because she wants to “be that mum that can really have a fighting chance for my kids, and for myself.”
“I think every woman should know self-defence and combat training.
I think it should be mandatory, especially if you have children, you should learn how to protect yourself.”
The mum-of-two has been learning hand-to-hand combat to ensure that if anything ever happened to her children she would be equipped to take care of it.
She says that she thinks everybody should have those skills.

The 50-year-old actress is starring in a new film Kidnap, which sees a mother rescue her son from a very dangerous situation.
Berry commented that it was nice to see a woman save the day for once.
“It’s so rewarding to see a woman do it (…) It’s nice to see a woman save the day with our female sensibilities.”
She also said that although the movie was fictional, it is still “every parent’s worst nightmare.”
“Hundreds of kids are really kidnapped every day. It’s real, and it was so real for me being a mom too. Every day, it was visceral. My emotions were here, and I just thought, ‘The horror’.”
Kidnap was released in the US this week.
