How important light perception is in order to regulate your daily activities if you are blind or visually impaired?

Is there an issue in waking up a bit later every day because other people are not as reachable as they were used to be?

Is it discipline something within us or is rather expressed by the social environment we are interacting with?

A conversation with Peter to investigate about these topic will lead us to further questions.

This interview was first recorded on Tuesday 25th 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.
