About the author

White Wolf Von Atzingen

<p>I have been studying martial arts since 1981 and hold the rank of 10th degree Dan in Small Circles of 5 Animals Jujitsu. Shao Lin Kung Fu, 18 hand Lohan Kung Fu, Muai Thai, Glima, Hsing i Ch'uan, Tai Chi Ch'uan, and Chi Kung are among other arts I&#8217;ve studied. I studied wilderness living and wilderness survival for 10 years in my youth and ran two wilderness skills schools from 2008 through 2015. For a handful of years, I taught specialized, close-quarter combat to civilians as well as law enforcement individuals. I&#8217;m a certified Reiki Master/Teacher and hold a Master Level in Nord Sei&#240;r Gr&#230;&#240;ari. I have training and experience in all manner of energy work; hands-on as well as remotely (TCM and Tribal based), mindfulness techniques, breathing exercises, and Scandinavian Shamanistic practice.</p><p>Over the years I&#8217;ve climbed over 20 mountains above 14,000 feet elevation, 13 mountains over 13,000 feet, and many others of lower elevation.</p><p>I thoroughly enjoy being outdoors; hiking, camping, kayaking, canoeing, skiing, snowshoeing, exploring, and just sitting quietly and observing life. Interacting with animals has always been a passion of mine. Crafting traditional works of art based on Scandinavian and Native American cultures also has kept me busy. I love to read and paint also.</p><p>I have&#160;traveled the western hemisphere extensively. I am a genuine Northman, teacher, author, artist, nature lover, and martial artist living in the remote mountains of Vermont.</p><p>Most recently I worked as a contractor for the Vermont Center for Responder Wellness and Institute for Trauma Recovery and Resiliency.</p><p>http://www.smallcirclesof5animalsjujitsu.com https://vikingwolfseidr.weebly.com</p>
