Marco Bravo Rojas loves taekwondo for three main reasons. First, he has felt a connection to the martial arts spirit since beginning his practice, which makes him feel like a Korean warrior in training. Second, as a hyper boy he needs an outlet for his energy, which taekwondo provides through sparring. Third, he loves the philosophical foundations of taekwondo which are based on the ancient knowledge of Korean farmers and help him be respectful and responsible through both theory and teaching practice.

Why do I Love Taekwondo?
I’ve loved martial arts since I was a child, specially now, that I practice taekwondo.
There are three main reasons why I love taekwondo: the most important, I think I’ve got the
martial art spirit running through my veins since I began practicing. For example, training
makes me feel like a Korean warrior trainig to improve himself every time. Second, I´m a
very hyper boy, so I need to spend my energy, which is a lot, and taekwondo training is the
best chance to do it. There is a specific time during the training when I can, which is the
sparring. It is the best part of the training, because I use my entire body, kicking and
punching my classmates or something to hit, like a kick shield. Finally, I love the
philosophical way of taekwondo and its martial system, which is based in the ancient
knowledge of Korean farmers who became the first warriors, and then the first martial art
masters of the 20th century. Thanks to this I´ve learned to be a respectful and a very
responsible person, by means of theoretical classes and teaching practice (at kindergardens,
schools and gyms). To sum up, I´ve learned to be a martial artist, following all my master`s
teachings, and applying them in my daily life.
