Finally, there was the opportunity to start recording again the Blind Interview series.

One year and a half has passed by since the start of a new way of doing things. Have all these new regulations and restrictions and necessities taught you new tools in case of another lockdown in the close future?

How did a remote-web development of life, broadly speaking, did apply to the visually impaired and blind community?

Peter shares with us his experience, living in the moment, keeping up the good job with training and never giving in to depression.

This interview was first recorded on Tuesday 18th of May, 2021.

My experience with Soft Tissue Massage Therapy was fundamental in developing this program by providing me with many practical tools to develop the ideas and methods of MA Training.

My first objective through the university course in Sport Psychology is to gain a deeper understanding of:

The needs of the visually impaired and blind people when it comes to personal safety.

What is the impact of movement and tactile experiences for them.

I'd plan to achieve this by conducting a series of research interviews within the community  in order to gain quantitative and qualitative data.

The second objective is to to further develop and refine the MA Training program based on the outcome of the research and to build on the success that I have achieved so far.

Peter Sands (Chairman of the London Sports Club for the Blind) is registered blind himself and he says that "MA Training has personally helped me to feel confident in crowded situations, be aware of my posture alignments and overall has improved my balance."

If you are visually impaired or blind, or if you know someone who is, and would like to take part to the series of Martial Attitude Voice podcast interviews exploring touch, confidence and blindness or if you would like to join in the Martial Attitude Training workshops now running in London every Sunday, please do keep in touch via Instagram or according to your communication preferences, all available  HERE.
