    i thought i had a better chance of finding one or the other rather than just looking for the one discipline.

    Looks like there are neither in the kildare area would need to go to dublin for them:mad:

    We train in Kali/Escrima in Kingswood - by newlands cross. One of our guys who lives in Greystones used to train in Iiado. But i dont think that club is still going. I will ask him for you.

    I spoke to the guy in our club. Unfortunately his Iiado club closed down a few years ago and the only club he knows of is the one in the city centre, Kenseiaki Ireland Dojo, near Pearse St Station.

    I hope this helps. All the best,

    Kathleen
