Start Here

Welcome to the CONQUER CULTURE digital space. I’m the founder, CJ Kirk. I’m also a father, husband, entrepreneur, Kravist and performance life coach.
I started CONQUER CULTURE after years of research and a deep dive into my own failings as a man. What I discovered was astounding and permanently life altering.

CONQUER CULTURE is the culmination of decades of struggle and discovery, forged into a coaching format that challenges and fuels men to find meaning in and through their lives.

This isn’t your run-of-the-mill, cheerleader coaching.  There are no personal pep rallies here.  To CONQUER yourself, and escape the unfulfilling rut you’re stuck in, you’ll need a deep commitment to truth and change.

If you’re looking for a magic pill, don’t bother. But, if you want to make a powerful and enduring life change, this is for you.

No one will give you a meaningful life. You have to claim it.  You must CONQUER yourself.

Let’s do this.

Chief Kirk

People call me “Chief Kirk” as a nod to the work I’ve done over the past 25+ years as a Krav Maga Chief Instructor.
I came to Krav Maga after a run-in with a 9mm pistol-wielding turd late one evening in the parking lot of a restaurant in Houston, Texas. The encounter created a powerful shift in my approach to life, safety, and my personal sovereignty.

At first, I was apprehensive about the “Chief Kirk” thing. But eventually, it became a reminder to strive for excellence and serve more powerfully. I get up every day and try to earn it – striving to learn from my mistakes and consistently improve and grow as a man each day.

My path has led me to some exciting places. I’ve earned a 4th degree Black Belt in Krav Maga, a Krav Maga Advanced Force Training Certification, and a Simunition Tactical Instructor Certification. I’ve graduated as a Performance Life Coach through Unbeatable Mind, and founded the Ground Zero Tactical Shooting School.  I’ve trained, coached and had the honor to work with thousands upon thousands of men.

Along the way, I’ve discovered powerful truths that men need to learn to CONQUER themselves.
