I loved it Haetae Martial Arts - 해태 무예 -- Taking the black belt off and replacing it with a white belt felt great. There is nothing more exciting and refreshing than to have the beginners mind.
I look forward to having you Damian Adams and of course any of your students on the matss

Thankyou for visiting and training with us tonight.

With January recognised as Mental Well-Being Month — and a time often associated with the “January Blues,” driven by post-holiday financial stress, loneliness, and family breakdowns — I want to take a moment to reflect on 2025 and share my own challenges.

2025 was, without question, the hardest year I have ever faced — financially 💰, emotionally ❤️, physically 💪, and mentally 🧠.

My resolve and resilience where tested so many times, the thought of giving up and just chuck it all in entered my mind so many times. Loneliness and isolation crept in, and the struggle was very real.

Early on martial arts saved me and Ten years ago, I had a vision — to give back what martial arts had given me. What once lived only in my head now lives on the mats, every single day.

The final grading of 2025 reminded me why I started Seon Do Kwan. Martial Arts. .

I saw kindness 🌟, respect 🤝, and humility 🙏.
Black belts earning every inch of their achievement. Kids growing into confident young adults. Fathers and sons learning together.
Students walking the path with me from day one, ten years on.

Every single person who walked through these doors has shaped Seon Do Kwan Martial Arts — and shaped me. For that reason alone, this school has always been about community, purpose, and contribution. And it has given me the drive to ensure Seon Do Kwan will always exist — no matter the challenge.

What i lost sight of and what 2025 also reminded me, no one should carry the weight alone. When the load is shared, the road becomes passable.

New Year’s Day made that lesson even more real.
2026 was meant to be a fresh start — a chance to put 2025 behind me and hit the ground running. Instead, it began with an ambulance ride to Emergency at the RAH. Since then, life has continued to test my resilience and resolve, without much room to pause or breathe.

Still, support came and continues to come— quietly, steadily, and without conditions or judgment. With kindness and love.

While my martial arts has been the one constant, for the first time it was not enough. Sometimes it takes another presence to help us rise.

I have been fortunate to have been given a gift, and now the driving force and reason to keep going.

There is no weakness in that.
Everyone carries something.

Be kind 💛.
Be grateful 🙏.
Keep showing up 🥋.

You don’t need to win every day — just don’t stop showing up. The reward is greater than you know 🌱.

What will the next ten years look like?
Who knows.
But this I know — I won’t stop walking the path - and no longer will no longer take things for granted, nor will I bear the load alone.

I am deeply grateful to every single person who has walked through these doors, whether for one lesson or many. You are part of this journey. For that, I bow in gratitude 🙇‍♂️🙏.

2025 was hard. Life tested me in every way.
Through it all, SDKMA 🥋 stayed constant — my anchor.
No one carries the weight alone. Support quietly matters.
Be kind 💛. Be grateful 🙏. Keep showing up 🥋.

2025 was, without question, the hardest year I have ever faced — financially 💰, emotionally ❤️, physically 💪, and mentally 🧠.
To say I thought about chucking it all in would be an understatement. Loneliness and isolation crept in, and the struggle was very real.
Yet through it all, martial arts remained my constant. Seon Do Kwan was my driving force.
Without it, I honestly dread to think where I’d be today.
Ten years ago, I had a vision — to give back what martial arts had given me. What once lived only in my head now lives on the mats, every single day. For a decade, that constant has remained. Martial arts saved my life — and Seon Do Kwan continues to do so.
The final grading of 2025 reminded me why this has never been about profit. It has always been about giving back.
