6th Daedo Taekwondo Open Championships 2018 Tournaments - News - Singapore Taekwondo Federation

J H Kim Taekwondo Institute is constantly looking for young aspiring Taekwondo practitioners who wish to consider coaching as a full-time career. However, practitioners must be willing to consider sports coaching as a job. While the hours can be irregular, it is not necessarily longer. Depending on the coaching experience and qualifications, salaries can also be decent. Career progression is just highly dependent on your work ethics and abilities but which job isn't? Lastly, working in a job where your passion lies can be extremely rewarding.

This was once said by a great man. "You know the Singaporean. He is hard-working, industrious, rugged individual. Or we would not have made the grade. But let us also recognise that he is a champion grumbler." We probably still retained the title of "champion grumbler" but to continue to make the grade, we got to stay hard-working, industrious and rugged. The same great man said, "What I fear is complacency. When things always become better, people tend to want more for less work". Doing well in life is not an entitlement, whether for an individual or for a society.

So why be stuck in a bind like the article said? If you have the passion, join us! Message us (or email us at [email protected]) if you are an active practitioner and are willing to coach part-time or full-time.
