I am a student of a Korean Martial Art form known as Tae Kwon Do; this is a very popular martial art practiced throughout the world and is a recognised Olympic sport.

I started practising Tae Kwon Do as an adult in my early twenties, I joined the TAGB organisation which has experienced instructors and masters with a wealth of knowledge who are able to help and guide you throughout your journey of training. The TAGB has over 16,000 current members and is one of the largest Tae Kwon Do organisations within Great Britain and Europe.

I feel Tae Kwon Do is a fulfilling martial art to embrace and train in as the reward from training and dedication will result in a remarkable effect in life. Every student, instructor and master must endeavour to live their life and train according to the five tenets of Tae Kwon Do which are Courtesy, Perseverance, Integrity, Self-control, and Indomitable-spirit this in turn will lead to a more complete life, one of trueness, high standards and morals.

I have competed in various Regional and National tournaments during my training as a coloured belt and also at black belt level. I have had success and won various medals within point stop sparring and the destruction category, I currently hold the TAGB Midlands championships gold medal for Black Belt hand destruction.

I have gained invaluable experience from a wide variety of martial arts including Boxing, Aikido, Systema and various forms of Yoga and Tai Chi. I still show interest in these disciplines and practices and have an open mind to new ideas, new ways of thinking and continue to develop myself and others.

As a student and now a teacher I will continue to develop and master a life times worth of training in Tae Kwon Do.
