Junior Winning Essay (October 2011 grading): What makes you continue practicing your art By Henry Hodgkinson, Tiverton Taekwon-Do PLANET P.U.M.A. Quotation: Know yourself, know your enemy, a thousand battles, a thousand victories. By Sun Tsu, (Chinese military commander), The Art of War. The reasons why I will still hope to continue practicing Taekwon-Do have probably changed since I first joined at the age of 4.5 years. Staying Safe: When I first joined my training school in Tiverton I had moved from London. Both myself and my brother went to a new school where, unfortunately, we were both bullied by the same boy. One of the parents recommended to my mum that she should try taking us to Taekwon-Do so that we could learn how to defend ourselves and learn to stay safe from strangers. I will remember my first training session as being lots of fun. I have lots of energy so really enjoyed doing the warm-up sessions. There were many other girls and boys and my instructor was really enthusiastic. One of the older girls, Sonja, brought in some medals that she had won. Everyone clapped her. It was amazing. I had no idea at that point that one day I would be standing there and everyone would be clapping me. Building Self Confidence and Self Esteem: One of the hardest things for me to learn at the beginning was getting my balance and co-ordination together to do kicks. As I have grown so has my ability in what I can do. I love to do the warm-up sessions. Taekwon-Do has taught me that size doesn’t matter. It’s about selfbelief in who you are. A sense of achievement. Competitions can be hard work but also fun. Going up in each grading getting a new belt and a certificate always makes you feel positive about having achieved something. Getting my first credit is something that I will always remember. Taekwon-Do is not a sport but it has helped me in building my stamina and determination to want to achieve in various sports at school. All my teachers and friends know that I do Taekwon-Do and I often appear in my school newsletter. Gaining Knowledge and Skills: I know that I find learning all the theory and history tough but my mum tries to make it easier for me. She is always so positive and supportive. It seems such a long time ago when I first joined my training school and I would never have believed that I have come this far and learnt so much. Friends For Life: Since starting I have made some really good friends even though we do not go to the same school. It’s great to know that we can meet up when we go training and during holiday time. Giving something back: I feel that I have a lot that I can give back in supporting other students and my instructors. I like helping the younger students and have sometimes forgot to focus on myself just before my gradings and have helped them with their patterns. I also know that I still have plenty to learn and new skills to learn. I have been going to a different school in Somerset over the last 6 years. This September I am going up to my Senior school and I know that it will mean a whole load of prep work and studying. Even being a black belt student I will be sure of one thing that won’t be changing, that my mum will still be picking me up in her car after school and I will be eating my tea in the back of her car whilst we travel to my next training session. 5
