Peter's key goals as an instructor are to continue to teach with the principles he was taught by Helmut Shihan and to teach realistic karate / self defence principles.

Currently, Peter is Vice president of NCGK and is based at Lennox Head.

He believes that traditional Goju karate has within it a comprehensive self defense component, which needs to be preserved. The more popular sport style of karate gives opportunity to those who wish to follow the athletic approach.
