Reason for starting Blaze Martial Arts:
My journey starting Blaze was not straightforward. I was picked on a lot when I was little, as I was a very quiet kid. I never defended myself. After one incident where I was picked up and thrown on the floor by a much older kid, my mum wanted me to learn self-defence. First, I started Judo as it was very close to home, but then Covid hit, and Judo classes stopped. I joined Blaze. It was meant to be short-term until Judo resumes; however, I enjoyed it so much that I never left. 6 years later and I am still here…
Reason for starting coaching:
I “fell into it”. In August 2022, I helped out at summer camp. I enjoyed it a lot, so when I was asked if I would like to help with coaching, I happily agreed.Best kickboxing moment:
