Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to study with scores of self-defense instructors. A few were good, but most were not. Only a handful really understood the difference between combat and sport, between reality and fantasy.
Peyton Quinn exists in that small percentage of experts who truly understand the realities of street combat. A seasoned martial artist, he has 38 years of experien ...

Master Rhee's achievements in Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific Region - since he established the art in ...

I thought about the years that had passed since I ...

THE DAY of departure fOr the most recent Goju-Kensha Australia training tour of Japan finally dawned, after many months of build-up. Fund-raising, meetings, clothes fittings and associated preparations were now a thing of the past.
We all met at the airport at 7.30am on Sunday, October 13th, checked in and then wasted time before finally departing to a chorus of, "Have a good time", "Be good", "Don't you dare do so-andso"; "Don't catch anything"; and other concerned (or jealous) commen ...
