I think you should take classes if you really want to get good. I disagree with Freebase with what he was saying at first but I completely agree with needed to find yourself in these situations to get better. You don't actually have to fight, but these fight simulations once you are trained trained your mind and your body to react with defensive "moves" and such for the future, if you ever ARE in the situation. I respect your sense of urgency to feel the need to protect and be protected, and I think classes would be the best way to handle this so that you have other people around you and you're not trying to find your way on your own. It's like learning to play guitar without the guitar in your hands, you can learn what you're SUPPOSED to do and what other people do, but until you have the guitar in your hands, until you can interact on your own with your own instrument, it's hard to say you know how to play.
