2017 was the year that changed everything for T. It's where he really found his love for Taekwondo Sparring as a sport. He loves everything about Taekwondo but sparring is his absolute most favorite part of Taekwondo. In 2017 T won Grand Champion at Kukkiwon Cup giving him three gold medals and a big trophy cup. It was his springboard moment for really wanting to do competitions. And so the traveling began. We've been all over our country with this sport. He's competed a ton, done training camps and has had several coaches throughout the years. He's learned a lot and grown a lot in this sport. He's constantly amazing his dad and I with his passion for the sport and Taekwondo in general. He has become quite the teacher and coach to his younger teammates. He's even been quite the encouragement and teacher to his pears with all that he has learned over the years. T has so much knowledge to give to those who want it. It's amazing to look back on 2017 and see where he is now in 2023. He's such a different fighter now and his enthusiasm for Taekwondo has really grown since he's been at CORE Taekwondo Performance Center. He respects his Master and Coach so very much and the bond that they are forming is so great. His dad and I love watching that relationship grow and deepen. There's so much respect both ways. I love seeing that. T knows that he still has so much to learn and he's willing to put in the work to learn all that he needs to know and to continue to grow in his knowledge of Taekwondo. He is becoming such an amazing young man and we are so proud of him!
