After seeing Mind, Body and Kick *** Moves, and reading a bit about it I would be very interested in having a go at Pekiti Tirsia.
I hear it's one of the major inspirations behind the Sayoc Kali, which I have a little experience of and found highly enjoyable.
Who out there is teaching, and where are you? Are you open to a visit from a couple of eejit's from Dublin coming for a class/seminar?
Thanks

| Haven't heard of any Pekiti instructors over here (could be wrong), nearest will probably be Uli Weidle in Germany, who is meant to be superb. I do know of a guy that was out in P.I training in Pekiti with Gt Gaje and Guro Rommel, who is based in Glasgow I *think*. |

Yep I would say Uli in Germany would be your best bet mate. There are no PTK guys here in the UK anymore, not to my knowledge anyway, and it has been a long time since I done any PTK.
Your other option is to pop off to New York USA and seek out Tuhon Bill McGrath, he is one awsome guy.
But who knows when you in the PI this year, could well get you introduced to the Grand Tuhon Leo Gaje.
Best regards

Well it was one of the first styles I learnt, but there is no one in the UK who is qualifide to teach PTK in the UK, the best bet is Germany, you know the place where half of you is from  , Uli is the top PTK guy in Europe.
Best regards
