elizaberth Posted April 14, 2005 at 02:33 AM Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 at 02:33 AM Hi, I need some suggestions in the translation for the following : This is an advertisement for a seminar. It goes like this: PRACTICAL STREET SELF-DEFENCE Seminar instructor: Mr Jack Wang Jack Wang is the executive director of XXX Pte Ltd. He also has 30 years of experience as a bouncer director and has trained numerous bouncers in handling all level of resistance and protecting themselves when the fists start flying. Jack Wang is also the founder of XXX Boxercise pte ltd and was awarded XXX title by the XXX council, Florida, USA. He had also taught martial art to personnel from organisations like Prison Department, Autralia Air Force. Spend one afternoon with Jack Wang and learn what works and what does not work in a street self-defence situation. Jack Wang will also share with the participants some of his training drills/techniques which had helped him survive more than 80 real life confrontation since he first started working as a bouncer 30 years ago. End of advertisement. glossary: A bouncer is a person employed to expel disorderly person/s from a public place, especially a bar, nightclubs,etc. so anyone wants to give it a try?
