About Me
In the last few years, my martial arts talents opened doors into TV shows and the staging of live combat demonstrations at events held mainly in Europe. Then, when an opportunity arose to play a role in the action movie "Swiss Connection", I realized that my martial arts training may potentially be marketed to a new audience. I am now pursuing acting roles which would utilize my martial arts skills in international films and movies. I would be an asset not only in martial arts performances, but as a character actor as well.

History
Guido Kessler has been involved in martial arts since the age of 10, beginning with Judo. At age 13 he exchanged his belts for a pair of Nunchakus, two sticks connected by a chain or rope. It soon became apparent that the discipline required mastering Nunchakus and the aura of invulnerability provided by this martial art suit Guido's athletic talents well. He had found his true calling in the Asian arts of self-defense.

Guido's relentless training soon made him one of the top Nunchaku artists at major international martial arts events of which some are highlighted below. In addition, he pursued and practiced other martial arts and combat sports as well. With Kung Fu, Thai Boxing, classic boxing, and other fighting and defense techniques he added variety to his repertoire making him 
a valuable asset in films and in off-screen events. Guido also created his personal style of Kung Fu; true to Asian traditions he calls it Sunrise Kung Fu.
Guido, a master in the technique of Nunchaku with world class status, was crowned the "King of Nunchaku" by the international martial arts magazine "KARATE".
