Interviews with Team GB’s Olympic Taekwondo athletes!

With each four years comes another monument to athleticism and human achievement that is the Olympics, and 2016 saw this tribute to the stamina of the human spirit hosted in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. If you followed the Olympics for even a moment this year, you were witness to records once again being made and shattered!

Of course, the Olympics just wouldn’t be the same without combat sports and as in years past, Taekwondo athletes from across the globe pitted their might and wits against one another on the arena floor. Team KFK were delighted to speak to several members of the British TKD team just in advance of the Rio Olympics. Feel free to view our official interviews with Bianca Walkden, Mahama Cho, and Damon Sansum, all of which you can see below! We were also honoured to feature them in our growing Hall of Fame and before you ask, yes, you can grab your shirt there too!

His early exposure developed into a lifelong passion and fascination with all forms of martial arts and tremendous passion for action and martial arts films. He would go on to take a number of different martial arts forms, including Shaolin Ch'uan fa, Taekwondo, Shotokan Karate and remains a devoted student, avid and eager to continue his martial arts studies.
