ShinJao AKA Kevin Miller from Belgium gets banned. Who's next?

Possible MC DOJO for Chinese Martial Arts

Subject: Laoshi Peter van Hooij
Dojo: Sportschool van Hooij Arnhem Netherlands
Why: Doubtfull and fraudalent claims by Peter van Hooij

Dear Bullshido

In Arnhem the Netherlands there is a martial arts school that goes by the name: Sportschool van Hooij this school is runned by Shifu/Laoshi Peter van Hooij.

Mr Peter van Hooij states that he is taught by Laoshi Mike Martello from Belgium and that he was a privates student of Mike Martello from 2002 until 2008. He even states that mr Mike Martello has given him the highest master grade: LaoShi.

Well i am a student of mr Mike Martello and i was a privates student and a regular class follower so i did both. Mike Martello never talked about Peter van Hooij and me and the Other students has never ever met Peter van Hooij.

Still is Peter van Hooij claiming that is became master under Mike Martello, the weird thing is that Mike his relatives never ever have met Peter van Hooij and also when Mike died, Peter van Hooij was NOT at the burrial service from master Mike.

Peter van Hooij from Arnhem the Netherlands has established Sportschool van Hooij and he is teaching: Tai Ji Quan, Sanda, and Kungfu but it is his own mix of the martial arts, it does not even look like the lessons of mr Mike Martello from Belgium. Peter van Hooij has earned the 1st degree Black Belt under Sifu Fred Decramer according the How Chuen Kungfu Website of mr Decramer.

Peter van Hooij has the following doubtfull claimes:

  • he states he has a 2nd degree black belt Kempo at sportschool Kreijtz in Arnhem: FACT sportcenter Krijetz never had Kempo

  • He states he got the Laoshi grade from Mr Mike Martello, Mike Martello and his relatives and i have never met Peter van Hooij, very doubtfull.

  • He claims he has done HVNA higher school for Chinese Medicine at Arnhem City, FACT Peter van Hooij is not findable on any Graduate list!

Please watch out for Sportschool van Hooij and Laoshi Sifu Peter van Hooij he seems to be a fraud!

Are there more people who have experiences with Peter van Hooij or Sportschool van Hooij please post them here.

Thank You.

Kevin Miller from Belgium

Wouldn’t it be a McKwoon? You have given a lot of information about what this school and instructor didn’t do, and what it seems to be. What are the classes like? How do they train?

The term “Dairy Kwoon” would seem appropriate…

this is the best start to an investigation i’ve read in a while. Can the OP link a website where the claims of rank can be verified?

Hello Peter,

My name is Kris.
I’m an old student and friend of Mike.
I don’t think we ever met, but that is not important.

I sometimes train with my friends at Xing Long.
But don’t consider myself a regular student.
That does not mean I don’t feel a very thight connection with them.

They are my kungfu family and I love them all.
So I’m standing up for them…

There is some truth in your post, I have to admit:
“They are really beginning and intermediate students.”

… and never claimed to be more then that.

Please visit the site : xinglong-zhenwu.be
You will see: it’s just that. A group of students who just wanted to train the method Mike has been teaching us. Because we like it and could see the value of it. And don’t want this method to be lost.

With regards to what Mike thought us, I would never claim to be more then a “intermediate student”. At best.

Best regards,
Kris

PS: Kevin Miller is not a student of Xing Long Zhen Wu.

PPS: “It’s not a style I teach. It’s a method.” is on the front page of the website.

Interesting how this is breaking down. Interesting that the three posters all just joined and this is their only post; I can’t help but to wonder if there is any significance there.

Fake and Fraud: Peter van Hooij Arnhem Sportschool van Hooij!

Dear Friends

Peter van Hooij from Sportschool van Hooij from Arnhem City is indead a bigg fake and a fraud! The evidence is very clear to all of us!

Mike Martello has never met this Peter van Hooij in person, NEVER EVER! Mike Martello started the Wu Tan ascociation and that is evolved in the current Zhen Wu organisation. Rosa Mei the ex girlfriend of mr Mike Martello mailed us the following:


Rosa Mei de ex vriendin van Mike Martello EMAILED the following:

Dear Richard,

I knew all of MIke’s students and training partners. I have never heard of Peter van Hooij, nor did Mike ever mention him and we talked every day about the school and his students. He certainly NEVER gave anyone the title of “Sifu” or “Laoshi”.

Kim Haukland (former instructor of Zhen Wu Antwerp and now of Zhen Wu Prague) attended every training camp organized by Mike and Zhang Laoshi and does not recognize this person.

I also asked Master Zhang XinBin if he knew of Peter van Hooij and he looked at Peter’s website and said he did not know this person. Zhang Laoshi said there is a possibility that this man attended a few of his seminars before in the past, but he has no right to use his name (or Sun and Yu Laoshi’s names as well) to promote himself. In traditional Chinese martial arts, this is only a privilege granted to disciples. Zhang Laoshi wrote this. “他 (Peter van Hooij) 也没有权利代表我和麦可,因为他不是我们的徒弟。” In translation this means, Mr. van Hooij has no authority to represent either me or Mike because he is not a disciple.

So regarding the following two statements, they are false.:

“…Peter van Hooij was trainingspartner en privstudent (van 2001 t/m 2008) van Mike in Belgie…”

“…en Nederland. Hij volgde tevens intensieve trainingen bij Mike’s leermeesters Zhang Xinbin, Yu Shaoyi en Sun Ruxian toen Mike hen uitnodigde om als gastdocent in Belgi les te komen geven. Peter specialiseerde zich bij Mike in Sanda (Sanshou). In 2008 vroeg Mike aan Peter om het geleerde te onderwijzen in Nederland en kende hem de traditionele leermeestergraad (Laoshi) toe…”

Unfortunately, Mike never left a will so, unfortunately, anyone (be it a beginner student or even someone who has never met him) can make any claim whatsoever and use MIke’s name to promote themselves. This is highly unethical, but there is very little recourse for legal action. There are also ex-students of Mike’s (XIngLong Zhen Wu Antwerp) who started their own school and claim to be continuing Mike’s teachings. Their claim to Mike’s “legacy” could also disputed, however it IS true that they did train with Mike in the past. They were never “authorized” by Mike to be teachers.

I knew Mike since '94. We moved to Belgium from NY together. He was my partner, my husband and best friend. After his death, I also handled the matters of his estate and took over running the martial arts school in Belgium and continued the international training camps he began with Zhang Laoshi and Rene. Mike was a genius martial artist and also the kindest man I have ever met. He would never have wanted his legacy tainted in this way.

It may be the case that Peter van Hooij feels a great affinity for Mike’s teachings and agrees with all of his principles. He should use his own martial skill to promote himself without the name dropping and just continue training.

Best,

Rosa Mei


Jochen Wolfgramm the best friend of Mike Martello mailed the following:

Dear Vincent,

I write to you in english, so you can better understand the answers to your questions.

As for the Memory of my teacher Mike Martello:
yes it would be nice, if everybody would act in respect for his work and don’t misuse his name and his teachings. But unfortunately there is no legal or official way to force this.

As for this Peter van Hooij:
I never heared Mike talking about him, so it is possible that he took one or two private lessons with Mike but was clearly not a long time student. Mike and me talked intensively about our students whenever we met. We were about to build up the Zhen Wu Organization in Europe and therefore we talked about people working with us in the future. So we never talked about Mr. van Hooij it is likely so that he was not a close student of Mike. Also looking at his videos I can clearly see that he didn’t trainin the ideas of Mike Sifu.

Another topic: Mike clearly rejected all the titel and politics BS. So he would never give somebody the “titel” laoshi or sifu (because it is NO titel).

Anyway: an open discussion will not change anything. Let the misguided people do what they feel need to do. Quality stands for itself.

Keep looking for a good school near you or just come over and learn at my school if you don’t mind the distance.

Best
Jochen Wolfgramm

This Peter van Hooij is a selfproclaimed master of the martial arts and he fabricated his own certificates and other stuff. He is a liar!

FACT: Laoshi Peter van Hooij from Arnhem Nederland is Fake

Sportschool van Hooij is teaching the first class BULLSHIDO martial arts, it does not matter if someone has created his own style or system. But when you create B.S. and say i learned it from this or that master, and every institute denied Peter van Hooij trained and or studied there the THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG with this Peter van Hooij Guy.

Peter Van Hooij runs an M.C. Dojo and the facts are clear.

Peter van Hooij need to be investigated for all of his frauds and lies, i will soon post more evidence at fraud MR Peter Van Hooij!

Thanks ! greetings Richard Kohlman!

The topic with liar Peter van Hooij is on the "forumDOTdutchbodybuildingforumDOT com and just take a look at that!

Zai Jian!

P.S. I will post more oon this fraud soon because he also never trained under Phoa Yan Tiong and other masters, he was not evenm at the funeral of his socalled master Jay Elfring who died at december 2011 , and at the funeral of Mike Martello his closest friend and teacher he was not even there also!

Sifu Peter van Hooij a fake and a fraud from Arnhem

Dear people

If there are anymore people wioth experiences or evidence due to Fraud Peter van Hooij from Arnhem , Sportschool van Hooij please post below!

Thanx Kevin Miller A.K.A. Richard Kohlman

Remeber that peter van Hooij is a fake and a bigg fraud

Thank you, so M. Martello did give out private lessons:

I never heared Mike talking about him, so it is possible that he took one or two private lessons with Mike but was clearly not a long time student.

Peter could have taken seminars:

Laoshi said there is a possibility that this man attended a few of his seminars before in the past,

All without the people remembering who he was or knowing what he was taught. Does it sound suspicious? Sure. Then again, if he spent 3-4 years in privates he has a right to teach the material.

To put it in perspective, look at the JKD or chun wars. People claim:
This person didn’t get the real.
This person didn’t train.
That person was never bestowed a title.
On and on and on.

Your FACTS are still HEARSAY, you have proven nothing. Now, if M. Martello has a list of his students then those emails would carry more weight.

Before someone jumps all over my post, I do over analyze shit. These two emails are to closely structured. They read like a party line, that is trying to discredit/distance themselves from someone they do not like.

Oh and to your funereal claim… This drama has obviously been building for a while, what respectable person is going to an event where he isn’t welcomed and emotions are running high?

That is a silly assertion on your part.

Remeber that peter van Hooij is a fake and a bigg fraud[/QUOTE]Tell you what, Fraud and fake are dangerous words without full proof. I am advising you now to follow our rules and use other words.

Peter van Hooij doubtfull martial arts claims!

//youtu.be/M47hAh9zsGI

No fraud is the right word here, we are investigating this Peter van Hooij professionally. Yess it might be that he took some seminars 1 or two! That does not give you any teaching credential.

No my proof is real, verified and substantial! Nobody also has the right proof to claim Ashida Kim is a fraud either. What is the real proof here on bullshido about this Ashida Kim guy then? The words used against him are also against the bullshido rules because the proof here on bullshido isnt th real thing.

To doubt my claims on a forum that will proof nothing, this Peter van Hooij is a liar and everybody knows that!

We have recorded phone calls, as emails from his closest students, and his regular students. The claims that mr Peter van Hoij makes are very false false false.

If you are still doubting me then come and join my investigation, then we will show you what kind of liar that it is.

If you are not interested in joining us, then do not say that we proof nothing because we invited you my friend.

You need to disclose your “evidence” or it doesn’t mean a thing. Why else would you come here? At the very least you could have read the instructions in the different forums and similar threads. Even if English is your second language you should still take care of spelling, typos and grammar. The way you write you seem a raving lunatic with an axe to grind.

[/quote] Until the investigation and your proof is published do not call him a fraud. This is your final warning.

No my proof is real, verified and substantial!

Then post it and calm down.

Nobody also has the right proof to claim Ashida Kim is a fraud either. What is the real proof here on bullshido about this Ashida Kim guy then?
In the multiple threads, you didn’t read, there are COURT RECORDS sworn under oath, RECEIPTS OF PURCHASES of false credentials that he has no business selling, a contract signed and money raised for a fight with proof he changed the rules. In other words, we have proof of breach of contract. Oh, let’s not forget one of our investigators has provided proof of his REAL NAME. All of the above are in a picture, accessible by a document search or in an article that tells you were to find the information.

The words used against him are also against the bullshido rules because the proof here on bullshido isnt th real thing.
Yes, it is real. See, this is why you argue YOUR OWN SITUATION. Your defense for your lack of proof has fallen flat. You have produced NOTHING that compares to the proof against Ashida Kim.

To doubt my claims on a forum that will proof nothing, this Peter van Hooij is a liar and everybody knows that!
I can doubt anything if you post nothing. Two emails prove you guys are fighting and that is it.

We have recorded phone calls, as emails from his closest students, and his regular students. The claims that mr Peter van Hoij makes are very false false false.
Provide proof.

If you are still doubting me then come and join my investigation, then we will show you what kind of liar that it is.
Why? You said you guys have everything in hand, post it and prove he is a fraud.

If you are not interested in joining us, then do not say that we proof nothing because we invited you my friend.
I will say what I want and enforce the rules until you provide proof. Your invite means nothing.

I smell the almighty IIF ban hammer.

Well I suggest you all meet up and exchange walls of text in private, you seem to have much in common.
