Key steps

  1. Catch the hand they have at your waist so it can't join the other.
  2. Plant one foot and stand by leaning your back into them, not away.
  3. Keep your hips away from theirs and pry their hands apart.
  4. Turn to face them once their grip breaks.

Key details

  • Take a wrist before you rise; without it they'll clasp their hands around you.
  • Stand with your head up and your back straight.
