Another awesome session at PHDefence today – Paul did some work standing up, and I did some work lying down. All in all, it was great fun and even better training! There’s talk still of PHDefence moving to Friday nights, which is looking increasingly certain as the only viable option they have, so get in … More PHDefence (26.11.2011) Feedback
Hi all, It’s been a while! PHDefence has still been going strong, but I’ve just not been posting. Busy, busy, busy. PHDefence was awesome this morning despite the low numbers again. Paul took them through some epic drills – really fun and unique too – I couldn’t help joining in; it was really enjoyable! I … More PHDefence (19.11.2011) Feedback (and a general update on everything…)
Today we played with a lot of Wing Chun principles, including some fun freestyle defensive drills from Paul. The sparring after that was also good – I can tell you dudes and dudettes have been doing a lot more of it in recent weeks. In the second half, I took you through some of the … More PHDefence (08.10.2011) Feedback
Today was a good mix of old and new – traditional and modern – training. We started off with some traditional Wing Chun stuff in the first hour, and then in the second we worked on individual issues in sparring, coupled with some work from ‘The Fence’, some Systema slow fighting, and some padwork to … More PHDefence (01.10.2011) Feedback
It feels like ages since I’ve done one of these! It always does when we miss a week. Today we did some work on Jiāosao with Paul, and a good section on ground mobility too just to get you all back into it. In my section I took you through sparring in various forms, increasing … More PHDefence (24.09.2011) Feedback
Yesterday was pretty much sparring and padwork oriented, which was fun because it got you all a bit more tired than usual, which is never a bad thing! First things first, PHDefence is closed next week again on the 17th of September, but it will be back again the next week on the 24th. Some … More PHDefence (10.09.2011) Feedback
Great to get back to the training! I miss it a lot whenever a week’s training gets missed out. Today’s session was focussed on sparring and ground mobility in the first half, and then I took the second half with some more advanced Wing Chun for the higher grades, and a consolidation of the basic … More PHDefence (03.09.2011) Feedback

Hi all, Sorry for the absence of last week’s feedback and lateness of this week’s as opposed to the norm; I’ve been inundated with stuff to do recently. Normal service is resuming though shortly. Today was, as always, awesome down at PHDefence. Starting next week, I intend to put a picture in these feedbacks when … More PHDefence (13.07.2011) Feedback
Yet another awesome session yesterday – the first half was more Wing Chun type stuff, and then with the second half I introduced some of the basics of effective groundfighting, which we’ll be returning to and building on next time. PHDEFENCE IS CLOSED NEXT WEEK ON SATURDAY, 30.07.2011 but they’re back on the week after. … More PHDefence (23.07.2011) Feedback
