Christian Hvidberg

been my goal to creating a system that conects with self defense so each individual during the process will learn to protect them self's while having fun''



The technical side of the system is a mix of different martial arts, but the core of the system is inspired by the Tsutsumi Hozan ryu Ju-jitsu, Aiki-Jutsu, Kenpo, Aikido and have also some influence from filipino styles.
