In this episode of Breaking, we sit down for part three of our conversation with Master Akmal Farah, CEO and coach at Authentic Taekwondo in Markham to talk about:
👉 Developing his unique coaching style for Taekwondo..
👉 How Taekwondo built his character and prepared him for life.
👉 Making the leap from a 9-5 job to coaching martial arts full-time.
👉 The importance of instilling values with his students early on in training.
👉 Adapting and pivoting to an online training environment during the pandemic.
👉 And much more.
Master 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. Master Farah has 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.
