She one day hopes her students may follow in her footsteps and compete at an international level but as long as they give her their all and always try their best she can ask for no more. Taekwon-Do is Amanda’s passion and she will continue to teach for as long as she can.

John began his training at 8yrs old with Amanda in the Umina Do-Jang. John has great dedication to the club and always shows enthusiasm for his training. In 2009 John achieved his 2nd Dan Black Belt after an intense grading process.

John was recently made an assistant Instructor at the Woy Woy Do-Jang and is constantly learning the ways of teaching in Taekwon-Do. We hope his dedication and determination to Taekwon-Do will transfer into the other members of the club and he will pass on his enthusiasm for training to the students he helps teach.
