The way of foot and hand
Licenses
I'm a goverment NOC/NSF certified and licensed taekwondo head trainer and also hold a technical judge licence.
Training
Currently I'm the head trainer at Dojo 't Loo and at Taekwondo Centrum Alkmaar where I also train myself.
History
I started taekwondo in 1990 at the age of 14 and slowly climbed the ranks by testing only once every 12-18 months. After my stay and training in Idaho I lost motivation and bounced around for a few years only to go back to taekwondo in 2002. In 2004 I tested for my first degree black belt and with success. I then started the head trainer course and got my head trainer certificate and licence in 2005. In 2006 I passed my second degree blackbelt exam and since 2009 I hold a third degree blackbelt.
 3rd degree black belt, December 2009 |
 4th degree black belt, December 2012 |
