Christian feels that as an instructor, he has a duty to connect to his students, keep them challenged, and to inspire them to want and to be more. He also sees himself as a student, continuing to train in all levels of classes and learning on his own. "Training doesn't stop when you leave the classroom," he advises, "If you truly want to understand something, commit yourself to it." Christian's main tenet is one of challenge and acceptance, "In order to become something you want to be, you usually have to let go of something. Many times it is comfort or the fear of the unknown. Learn to challenge yourself and you will always want something better for yourself and for others."
