Here are the ones that help out with teaching the children’s group. Besides the branch’s shibu-chō, Anders Pettersson, we have Pelle Svensson, Erik Öhrn and Niklas Pettersson who all help out with taking care of the teaching of the children’s group.

Niklas Pettersson began training in 1992 as a fifteen year old, he is sandan (3 dan). You can read a little more about Niklas here.

Pelle began practising Shorinji Kempo in 1983, but had some periods without training over the years. He took the shodan (1 dan) in 2006.

Erik began training in the children’s group in 2004, when he was ten years old. After a year in the adult group, he is now helping out and teaching also. Erik is currently shodan (1 dan), since December 2010. He graduated high school last year, and will begin his studies at Chalmers University of Technology this autumn.
