My elder sister was interested in taking up the sport and asked me to accompany her. After training for a few years, I developed a strong passion and love for the sport. In addition, my coaches saw the potential in me which gave me the drive to excel in it.

I was fascinated by my brother’s progress in Taekwondo. Hence I made up my mind to pursue this sport as I wanted to perform the kicks and stunts myself! After competitions, I usually watch my matches with my brother. We analyse and reflect on the process and outcome.

When I was six, I saw kids shouting and sparring with each other at the nearby RC and it aroused my interest in Taekwondo. My parents then enrolled me into a Taekwondo class so that I would be fitter and stronger. As the chal-lenges increases, my love for the sport increases.

When I was a kid, I would always follow my parents to the RC near my house as my parents were RC members. Coincidently, they had taekwondo lessons going on and I would stand outside the hall and follow the training. Upon seeing me so keen in Taekwondo, my parents signed me up for lessons. That’s how I started the sport.

Taekwondo taught me important life values and changed my life. It is easy to pay lip service when talking about values. But when you are practising Taekwondo, the values are internalised within you. Nobody can take that away.

I am attracted to martial arts since young because of Jackie Chan’s movies. You can say the seed for this sport has been sown since young. When I joined it as a CCA in Secondary one, my passion increased with good coaches and friends along the way.

When I was seven, I saw my brother having his Taekwondo lessons and I would follow his movements, like kicking, punching and shouting. I really wanted to take up this sport so my mum asked me to try out a few classes and to see if I liked Taekwondo. My love for this sport grew as time passes by.

My father was a Taekwondo practitioner himself, and shared the sport with me. My ideal day is one where I have trained hard during the day, and come home to watch shows on my computer before taking a well-deserved rest.
