Master Instructor and Author Carl D. Stoldt.


Carl D. Stoldt was born in Kentucky and has trained all over the world to enhance his training, including Canada and Germany.
Carl has obtained black belts in many different martial arts; an eighth degree in Wonjutsu, a seventh degree in one style of Taekwondo, a second degree in another style of Taekwondo, a first degree in Shotokan Karate, a first degree in Hapkido, and has trained in Wing Chun, Kung Fu, Brazilian Jujitsu, Ninjutsu, Boxing, Aikido, and Kyshojitsu (pressure point fighting).
In addition to his regular martial arts certifications, Carl was also certified by the American Council on Martial Arts (ACMA). The ACMA helps regulate martial arts instruction in the U.S. by making sure instructors that they recognize, have all the required certifications and backgrounds to teach. Currently, there is a push for all martial arts instructors to be certified by the ACMA to help control unqualified individuals from teaching unknowing students and risking serious injury due to a lack of proper training.
Carl, a former Army veteran, has been a bouncer at several wild clubs before and knows what works. You get plenty of experience being a bald, white guy at an all-Jamaican club in Ft. Lauderdale! Bouncing at several rough bars and clubs for 4 years on-and-off also racks up quite the experience of street fighting and practical applications.
His experience in law enforcement, working in hostile prisons, patrolling the streets, and gang investigations have also given Carl plenty of insight into how criminals act and how to stay safe. Due to the nature of the job, it has even literally come down to life and death several times.
With his touring of the tournament circuits, Carl has met and talked with many celebrities. Chuck Norris, Jean Claude Van Damme, Steven Seagal, the Power Ranger cast, and most of the WWE Wrestlers are just some of the many other celebrities he's met.
Carl is a member of many halls of Fame. The Black Belt Hall of Fame, the Masters Hall of Fame, and the Officials Hall of Fame, to name a few.
As President of the World Wonjutsu Association, the governing body for all Wonjutsu instructors throughout the world, Carl is involved with martial arts and seminars all over the country.
Carl is one of the most well-known and respected martial arts teachers in the country. His unique and fun teaching style has led several churches, universities, law enforcement agencies, and private organizations to bring him in to teach seminars and speak at their events. As a matter of fact, some of the best, most effective, and most memorable self-defense seminars and classes around the world have been taught by Carl.
When organizations bring in Carl and his team, the organizations know they are not just getting a seminar to try to fill martial arts classes by the local guy down the street. With this team, you get practical knowledge that has proven itself many times over in real-life and death situations on the streets and in some of the roughest prisons around.
