The sexual assault did not warrant violence beyond your pushing him away, which is what you did.
But when he came back threatening you and escallating the violence, I see nothing wrong with responding in kind. I might have gone for a throw myself, but you might not have been able to. Either way, I really can't find anything really wrong with what you did - and I'm one of those martial artists who advocate never fighting unless you have to. I believe in running before fighting, but had you done that you'd have left two women vulnerable to a guy who'd already shown himself to be sexually abusive, so you didn't have that option.
you went from happy to violent that fast because the situation warranted it. Nothing wrong with that.
