Craig Hanaumi is a Brazilian Jiujitsu brown belt under Rener and Ryron Gracie, a Bellevue Police Officer, and a life long skateboarder.
The work he does for his community may be a unique approach but I believe he does one of the best jobs of humanising the United States Police Force and outreach to remind people that officers are people too and on their side.
To add to these accolades, he uses his social media platform to show how jiujitsu can be used in an arrest and restraint situation. One of the most fascinating conversations I have had.

Marty Wilkin is a former Royal Marine, he has seen action in Northern Ireland, the Falkland Islands and Afghanistan. This is his story of the Falklands War.
In the spring of 1982, thousands of British forces travelled to the remote, bleak Falkland Islands off the east coast of South America in response to an invasion by Argentine forces.
Carried by a mighty task force of Royal Navy vessels and Royal Fleet Auxiliary support ships, and assisted by cruise liners, tankers, cargo vessels and even tugs, 27,000 women and men were mobilised.
As winter descended on the South Atlantic, a bitter war raged for six weeks, resulting in the liberation and re-capturing of the Falkland Islands.
This was one of the most amazing conversations I have been part of to date, half way through I just button my mouth and listen.
Enjoy !

Steve Gwenin was senior manager of a mid-sized business, he found his surf time compromised and grew frustrated by work, family commitments and by himself! Steve realised he was no longer being who he wanted to be. He stepped away from his role and company to re-shape his life and dedicate more of his time to surfing, and to his family.
Questions from other surfers led him to sharing experience and developing Surfers Life Club, and the FaceBook community Work Less Surf More.
Both are communities of senior managers and founders who surf, and both help them to work less and surf more.
Steve has over 20 years experience in senior management and leadership in the personal and professional development sector, and is a qualified and experienced Coaching Master, NLP practitioner, Mentor, Instructor and Train the Trainer.
Through hundreds of conversations, Steve has identified the key choices we make that stop us surfing and alternative choices and actions we can still take to get our lives back on track and us back in the water.
He helps others who want to re-shape their lives and start living the surfers dream.
