With dreams of becoming a world-class competitor for New Zealand, this World Cup is a crucial step on that path.

Enesh is dedicated to his sport with the character and self discipline to train at every opportunity. He support others in our club and at a regional level to become better practitioners while also continuing his personal development with guidance of our instructors and seniors.

Mike – is a senior Taekwon-Do student who trains for fitness, discipline, and self-defense. After six years of practice and dedication, 2026 is the year that he hopes to earn his black belt rank.
