Capital taekwondo champions
TAN'GUN Taekwondo had a fantastic result at Crystal Palace at the London Open Championships.
There were bronze medals for Ethan James and Nathan Lewis and a silver for Akin Ajose.
However, the stars were gold medallists Kemi Ajose and Dominic Morgan who are now London Open Champions.
Taylan Rifat won bronze for patterns to become Tan'Gun Taekwondo's first patterns winner.
To the uninitiated patterns is a series of moves performed individually and with focus to represent a combative situation.
The event was quite a long tiring day but all performed with great results.
All of Tan'Gun Taekwondo's competitors will be sparring next month in the British Taekwondo Control Board's London Championships, a county level competition where winners are selected for national, international and even Olympic representation.
Tan'Gun Taekwondo's chief instructor David Carmichael said: "I am on the lookout for an Olympic champion, and feel certain they live in the Greenwich Borough.
"Whoever and wherever he or she is I am determined to find them."
He added: "Greenwich is putting so much into sports for the future, it would be a real shame not to be able to offer a place in the England squad to someone from the local area."
If you think that you would like your child to be a potential Taekwondo champion or if you would like more information on Tan'Gun Taekwondo, call David on 07956 674 352 or visit tangun-taekwondo.com
