Episode #9: Tae Kwon Do Instructor, Akmal Farah talks Pandemic & Children’s Mental Health
"Discipline is about consistently doing the same thing over and over again until we achieve what we want and not give up"
Akmal Farah
This special edition of The Audacious Living Podcast takes a look at the psychological impacts that the Covid-19 pandemic has had on our children as we collectively deal with having to be apart from one another.
Akmal Farah is the owner of Authentic Taekwondo and Kickboxing in Markham in the north end of Toronto and he shares his firsthand perspective on how the global pandemic we're all experiencing is negatively impacting children.
The former Canadian National Taekwondo champion will also discuss how his studio has had to make the necessary pivots by moving classes and sessions online and lessons learned in the process.
Farah began his Taekwondo practice in April of 1994 and in 1997 he went on to win his first Canadian National Championships in the Bantam weight division. He credits his motivation and inspiration to Grand Master Young Su Choung and Coach Tino Dossantos. He’s competed at many world championships, Pan American and other international events successfully. He has finished top 8 at the world championships and earned a bronze medal at the Pan Am Championships, through 4 years on the Nationals Team. During his tenure on Team Canada he served many terms as its team captain, where he now brings that same dedication and drive to Authentic Taekwondo.
