Christian Holloway

Multi Sports and Parkour Coach

Favourite Team and Player?

My team is Manchester United and favourite player is Marcus Rashford. But I think what Gareth Southgate has done with the English team to transform us into contenders at every major tournament is amazing. He has done it riding all the constant criticism and negativity that is thrown at him and the team. The man is a true hero of English Football.

Favourite Food?

I love food and have been into cooking since my teens. My favourites change often but currently my favourite food is authentic butter chicken with a fresh puffy garlic & coriander naan

Number one pet peeve?

My pet peeve has to be litter. It is disgusting, lazy and unnecessary.

Something people might be surprised to learn?

I have had a number of varied and unusual jobs from picking peaches to cocktail barman and was once the voice of recorded announcements for Cellnet (now O2).

The Bio

Younger me was seriously into sport. I was a county level swimmer training with City of Birmingham and also did athletics, karate, kick-boxing and played hockey and badminton.
After university I went travelling and enjoyed it so much I took jobs working in IT/Telecoms to further feed the travelling bug. I have travelled to 45 countries so far with more trips in the pipeline.
My favourite place on earth is Heron Island on the Great Barrier Reef in Australia.
After marrying and having two sporty children I moved into coaching football a journey which lasted 10 years before I went into refereeing the beautiful game. I started parkour for fitness and fun and in 2017 started my own parkour business and got qualified as a parkour coach.
