    Dave Joyce used to teach Muay Thai in Galway, I presume he is still going? An O.G Irish martial artist.

    I can also recommend Dave Joyce. I have known him for some years now and I also know sone very well respected martial artists in a few states in America who also hold Dave in high regard.

    He is a very good instructor and has trained good fighters.
