Competition result

I'm always incredibly impressed by the courage and confidence the children demonstrate in the face of adversity. There are not many adults who would want to get in to a competitive arena where they're faced with a win or lose situation and especially if you run the risk of getting a pounding with someone throwing kicks and punches at you; let alone children as young as 5 years. It's certainly a test of character and on Sunday 4th March in Bristol, students from KMA Sports Academy attended the United Kingdom Chung Do Kwan Taekwondo Championships.

A blistering performance by all the kids from KMA Sports Academy. Recognition goes to:

Sienna (2 Golds), Noah (Bronze), Declan (Bronze), Imogen, Sam, Corbin,

Ryan (Bronze) & Chloe. I'm one very proud Coach and dad. Well done Team KMA and the parents who dedicate their time and energy to the children. Until the next one. Oh yes and we won a team Trophy as well.

Warm regards

Coach Des
