Certainly hearing stories about how you used Eskrima in bouncing oer other self-defense situations would be good!

I gotta agree with this. A self defense book written from the POV of an Eskrima practitioner would be fascinating.

If you are writing a book for American readers, I'd like to read about what the "rougher side of the tracks" is like in Germany. By the way, is your "Combat Escrima" related to what Rene Latosa and Bill Newman taught through the EWTO? I'm a "retired" practitioner of WT and Rene's PMAS Combat Escrima, from before the time a lot of politics messed things up. Anyway, good luck with the book!

That would be interesting!

I will say that I genuinely enjoy watching your promo trailer every time that I see it!

That was an excellent video Michel, love the music and the moves, nothing wasted, everything with a purpose.

I think a book would be a darn good idea, I agree with hearing about some of the rougher parts of Germany's club scenes and the philosphy that you use (when you were talking about it in the beginning). Very well put together.

I would have personally banged his head on that cement pillar and not my car LOL (just joking).

I've heard Jeff Espinous tell stories of his days as a bouncer in Germany, some interesing stuff. I'm sure you probably have some stories that compare.
