Thu, 5 February 2009  Dr. Kevin Keough, host of the Warrior Traditions podcast, interviews Mr. Loren Christensen, author of Warriors: On Living with Courage, Discipline and Honor published by Paladin Press. Loren W. Christensen is a Vietnam veteran, retired police officer, a martial artist since 1965, and a prolific author of books and magazine articles. Mr. Christensen was still a rookie on probation when his police agency recruited him to teach defensive tactics to new officers hired just a few months after him. Since then, he has trained countless police academies, in-service officers, transit system authorities,security agents, hotel security personnel, mental health nurses, and criminal justice students. Loren began his martial arts journey in 1965 and over the decades of continuous study has earned 11 black belts in three fighting arts: 8th-degree black belt karate, 2nd-degree black belt jujitsu, and 1st-degree black belt arnis. As a writer, Loren has penned over 40 books and dozens of magazine articles on a variety of subjects. While his target audience is most often what he calls “the warrior community” – martial artists, cops, soldiers –his writing has become popular among high school and college students, parents, professionals of every kind, and people interested in a side of life outside the norm.
