Welcome to another exciting episode of *The Mind Sensei Podcast*! 

I’m your host, Peter Tas, and today we have a very special guest joining us on this episode—someone who has made significant contributions to the world of American Kenpo. 

It is my pleasure to introduce Senior Professor, Mr. Ingmar Johansson.

Born in Chile and raised in Sweden, Mr. Johansson's martial arts journey began in the early 1980s in boxing, where he earned a spot on the Swedish National Youth Boxing Team. 

However, his drive to expand his physical and technical repertoire led him to Kenpo Karate, a path that took him across continents. 

He studied under the esteemed Mr. Richard "Huk" Planas in the USA, with whom he still trains today. 

With over 15 years of experience in Inayan Eskrima and Modern Arnis systems, as well as further studies with Mr. Marty Zaninovich, Mr. Johansson’s quest for knowledge has never ceased.

In 1987, Mr. Johansson opened his first martial arts school, which continues to thrive with over 350 students. His influence extends globally, supporting Kenpo schools in 14 countries and teaching through seminars, workshops, and international events. 

One of his most notable achievements is the founding of The Viking Camp in Sweden, a prestigious event attracting students worldwide for over two decades. 

As a founding member of the "Road Warrior Lineage" and organizer of major international events, including the 2017 Richard "Huk" Planas World Gathering Training Camp in Las Vegas, Mr. Johansson’s legacy in Kenpo is remarkable.

Currently holding the rank of Senior Professor and a 7th Degree Black Belt under Mr. Planas, Mr. Johansson is the first individual outside the USA to receive "The Patch," a prestigious recognition in the Parker/Planas lineage.

So, sit back, relax, and join me in welcoming our guest on this captivating episode of *The Mind Sensei Podcast*!
