MY TEACHERS
If I have seen further than the others, it is because I have stood at the backs of Giants.

A tough guy from Scotland. Friend and teacher, he tought me everything I needed to know about street fighting. He tought me almost all the "secrets of bouncing", what to do and what not to do.
I worked for him and there were many times that we trained together mostly in knives and dirty boxing.
He is fast, vicious, knows every stroke and he'll fight you with everything he has. Gods and Ghosts fear him! It has been said that the fighter's thoughts and actions must be like one flash of lighting. This is Eric!

He was my first teacher in Shaolin Kung Fu when I was at the age of 16. I still remember the hand drills and the speed we was working with.
He trained in Singapore under Master Cheung Meng Joo.
His hand fighting looks like the panantukan I have become familiar with, during the last years. He was very calm with himself and his enviroment. I lost track of him a long time ago but I still respect him and recall him as one of my first teachers in Shaolin Gung Fu.
My respects to the people who inspire me and I train with.
