Penrith TaeKwon-do School

My name is Amy, I'm 13 years old and I started TKD PTKD in 2004 as part of the little ninjas programme. I first found out about the school when my friend Courtney told me about the classes and I wanted to give it a try because I had always wanted t do a martial art and I thought it would be fun.

I'm now a red belt. Nearly a black belt!

I really enjoy going to competitions and doing sparring. I also like sparring because it is fun and energetic. I also like self-defence because it teaches you how to defend yourself when needed and I also like taking people down!! Tae-Kwon-do also keeps you fit and helps you make new friends.

Amy's instructor Mr. Ian Rigg states - "Amy is Penrith TKD School's most decorated competitor to date; winning numerous competitions and best overall competitor trophies. When Amy brings her medals to show and tell, she looks a bit like Mr. T, with all the gold around her neck."
