This book dispels many of the myths that surround the application of martial arts in the role of self defence and personal combat. The author, with some 55 years of high level martial arts has empirical experience of personal combat through many years of door security and close protection work (bodyguarding) has developed unique concepts and methodologies for making practical use of martial arts.Having a successful outcome to potential violent encounters is often not as a result of physical skills, rather the application of Personal Security protocols, which are discussed in detail in the book. The author has an international reputation for developing these concepts and he has been a consultant police trainer in the UK to both national police training and numerous police constabularies. Peter is the Chief Instructor of the three martial arts associations within The Combat Group, namely the British Combat Association; British Combat Karate Association; and the World Combat Association. He is a 9th Dan in Karate and a former Gt Britain and England Karate international and having spent many years on the national teams became a British full contact champion following his years as a Karate competitor.Alongside his martial arts career, Peter is a consultant in the field of security risk management with numerous international UK and US corporations as clients. Over some 30 years he has consulted for numerous companies (many household names), strategising their security risk management as well as delivering high level personal security awareness training to senior executives and board members. It is this wealth of experience that Peter brings to his specialised writings on matters of self defence, personal security, training for combat and personal development.

About the Author
Peter Consterdine is a 9th Dan Black Belt in Karate and a former Gt. Britain and England Karate International, spending some 8 years as a regular squad and team member. However, with over 55 years of continuous martial arts training behind him Peter has made a specific lifetime study of the role of the martial arts in self defense and personal comba t .
A former British Full Contact Champion, Peters reputation for intensive training and fitness regimes is legendary. In addition to Karate, Peter has studied many martial arts, in particular Wing Chun, which took him to Hong Kong and China and private tuition with such experts as Grandmaster Ip Chun, masters Sam Kwok, Alan Lamb and Simon Lau.

Acknowledged as one of the worlds hardest strikers, his techniques for delivering such impact are contained in two DVDs Powerstrike and Powerkick and, although, copied but never equaled, Peters tremendous impact development was originally the product of his years training under Sensei Shigeru Kimura of Shukokai Karate fame. But through the years, informed by his practical experiences as a doorman for over 10 years in Manchester England, Peter has adapted and added to the application of Kimuras Double Hip system. As either pre-emptive strikes, or at speed in stand-up competition, Peter has refined the Double Hip and other Shukokai concepts to give explosive, dynamic and massively impactive techniques, adaptable to a wide range of combat situations and capable of enhancing speed, dynamics and impact for any martial art.
His interest in personal combat arose from his years as a doorman in Manchester, England and with over 10 years on the doors in the 70s and 80s and, up to 2009, deploying Door Supervisors through one of his security companies, Peter is well versed in the complex range of issues surrounding tactics, techniques and concepts for face to face personal combat.

Since the mid 1980s, Peter has worked in close to 30 countries on high level Executive Protection (Bodyguarding) details and specialist security work, including designing security strategies for companies operating in difficult, emerging markets such as the former Soviet Union and training ex-pat staff who travel and may have to live in such environments. He has looked after (Executive Protection) some of the U.S.s wealthiest corporate leaders in some dangerous and difficult regions of the world.
A bodyguard trainer for many years, his books, Streetwise, The Modern Bodyguard, Travelsafe and Fit to Fight, are world renowned and recognised as empirical works on the range of issues relating to martial arts, combat fitness, civilian self defence, police defensive tactics and specialised security issues. Peters unique skills are in bridging the gap between physical skills of martial arts and self protection and the world of operational defensive tactics, be it for the police, military, professional security operatives, or prison officers.

In the UK, Peter has acted as a consultant and instructor to the U.K. Home Office, specifically at, what was then, National Police Training (NPT), HM Prison Service (Control & Restraint HQ), other Government agencies, Military Units and over 12 Police Forces, (including firearms units). Peter was, in fact, only one of three civilians on a 12 man expert group that contributed to the Police Personal Safety Manual (Defensive tactics), which was operational from 2002.
Peters books and videos have become standard training material and are recommended in the Police Safety Manual. In 2008, Peter was again on an expert panel, this time for the UKs Skills for Security during their revision of the National Occupational Standard (NOS) for Close Protection.
In 1993 along with his friend and partner, Geoff Thompson (Watch My Back fame), Peter founded the British Combat Association (BCA) and, since 2008, the World Combat Association (WCA) and the British Combat Karate Association (BCKA). Since its beginning the BCA has become world renowned for the development and promotion of a realistic approach to the role of martial arts in practical, personal combat. With hundreds of clubs and Instructors in membership, the BCA still occupies the cutting edge of progressive Self Protection and has brought both common sense, years of street experience and, especially, the recognition that it is not just techniques but fear control and an understanding of the psychological and physiological stress issues that determine the successful outcome, or not, of a violent conflict.
Through his writings, DVDs and teaching, Peter has become recognised as a world authority on these subjects and in Volume 44 (April 2006) of Black Belt magazine, Peter, alongside Geoff Thompson was in the top 5 out of 20 people ranked as the worlds best street fighters. The list was compiled as a provocative talking point as much as anything, but as Peter says, its nice to be thought of.
Peters role within the martial arts world is first and foremost about his own, intensive, personal training programmes, with a close second being his desire to pass on his extensive knowledge and skills. In fact he is acknowledged as one of the hardest trainers on the UK martial arts scene (see Training Day videos) and those who learn and train with Peter accept that the price is paid in sweat and tears. Peters websites, books videos and articles are the product of a long and comprehensive, journey into personal combat, not the assumptions and presumptions of the host of opinionated, poorly trained and inexperienced, keyboard warriors.
As well as his martial arts involvement, Peter runs a security risk consultancy company advising publicly listed corporations on security risk management and business continuity planning.
