Due to some issues, I have been lying low to get them resolved and the hard work has paid off so all good :-) Thought I'd post a quick note about Peter Consterdine coming to Dublin. After spending time on e-mail and on the phone getting advice from Peter, I finally got to meet him last Saturday when Aidan Carroll of Hard Target hosted a seminar with Peter and his assistant...also Peter. We spent the morning and early afternoon training and then went for dinner ...

I argue that it's best to be pre-emptive with a punch and go for a KO, while a mate of mine is adamant that a foot strike to the knee is the best way to take some one out.

I understand the ground isn't always where you want to be in a self defence situation but it would be nice to have the option if it's needed.
