Biography:
Chris began his life in the Martial Arts back in 1987 at the age of 7. Training in the art of WTF Tae Kwon Do, Chris progressed to the rank of Blue Belt before the club he was training at had to close. After searching for a replacement club to train at, Chris eventually joined the Kim Stones Martial Arts Academy where he stayed until 1999 upon reaching Black Belt in ITF Tae Kwon Do. As a former world champion, Master Stones was an excellent teacher and Chris eventually became an Instructor at his school, teaching until late 2001.
Seeking a new challenge, Chris opened his own full-time Martial Arts school in late 2001, at the same time beginning his carear in film and TV. Chris's first break came in the form of the 2001 Royal Variety Perfomance, followed quickly by the UK productions 'Left 4 Dead' and 'Insiders'. Many years (and productions) later, Chris finally got his break in 'Hong Kong' working on the movie 'Blood The Last Vampire' which featured action Choreographed by Corey Yuen.
