My name is christer kihlstrom aka in the security industry world Swiss Chris from Sweden.
As it say nice person got many names.
So from young age doing sport. Mainly football and ice hockey in Sweden. Always had a burning passion about martial arts…..
In pre season training done se wrestling and judo with top Swedish athletes. And military training to..
So after choice between football and professional ice hockey at age of 16 years old! Went for ice hockey.
Still always keen reader and passionate about what martial arts I wanted to develop my own personality and soul!
I read the tai chi gladiator by a Scottish man living in north London.
By name Dan Doherty.
Who made me want to try wutan tai chi Chuan 1995/96 I think it was. Still playing ice hockey for fun. With youth friends on a okej level in Sweden.
Went for a try season and never looking back on my ambitions in the wutan tai chi Chuan system.
I had already found in the Swedish fighter magazine a company who was giving courses in body-guarding. Or in Sweden called livvakt!
And there I did try both ninjutsi and Krav Maga. The owner was the world famous Bo Munte! And after then I finish the course it was Clase Goran Hammar. Also well experienced in both fields!
That journey took me to India? Where I went as there security or bodyguard…..
I will talk more about that’s in other parts…
As you see the body guarding and the wutan tai chi Chuan follow each others.
I went to Thailand for holiday and after ended up in London via Paris.
And went to the legend Neil Rosiak classes. He had been training with Dan Docgerty too for many years. Then been teaching from 1993..
Where he started doing high end security. And training in early valetudo with 3 friends…
This journey is still going on.. throw over the years training with Neil Rosiak and his 13dynamics.com team.
We also started powerseekers.com. Pioneer in the field of kettlebells.
Still then I Swiss. Chris was working in Mayfair soho doing top members clubs in the old days! Some clubs I was head of security. Running the front of house. As the same time working for the world famous spearmint rhino……. And secrets gentleman’s clubs. Who was a lot of hands on every night!
So in the daytime training night practising what I learnt under the private training with Neil Rosiak.
We also did share flat for years. So training worked together. And his successful team went to a lot of comps. The famous Sami the Hun bearik come weekly and training together.
I did compete in pushing hands… in the European championship and around England plus before in Denmark. Then I fought in Chinese kickboxing/San Shou too..
Under the years got a lot of experience in high end security.. conflict management as deling with customers guest and colleagues….
Was explored to RST and Diplomatic Relations…
This is meant to be a brief background and history about where my interest to start my own company to teaching security course. Make people feel safe and help with others fitness….
I did qualify as sport massage therapist to under 6 years.
Done my close protection course in England with the top teachers. Training with world champions in kettlebells…. Went to Birmingham for seminar with the sayoc gurus then they first come over to England.
The mission is….
So I want to improve help new people and uplift the standard in the security sector…. Where I think a lot of course teach more to get a qualification rather than give you a better platform to stand on!
Where I want to use my own skills. Get the best help from outside of the skills I got. Share so we and those coming to learn help need skills will feel safer in an unsafe world……
