Ten months of sparring for Aria who finds safety and confidence in Tae Kwon Do

Posted Mar 17, 2025
For Aria, Tae Kwon Do is much more than a sport—it’s her safe space. The dojang has become her home, where she feels strong and in control. Training has helped her grow into a confident young woman, and now that she’s close to earning her black belt, she’s excited for her next adventure. Aria wants to take an Olympic-style sparring course that will challenge her both physically and mentally. This class is not just about learning new moves; it’s also about proving to herself that she can go further than she ever thought possible. The sparring class meets every other Saturday for ten months and focuses on strength, endurance, and strategy. Aria loves the idea of pushing her limits and refining her skills with the help of her instructor. More importantly, this course will set her up for future opportunities in Tae Kwon Do, whether it’s competing, coaching, or even starting her own school one day. Having overcome many challenges in her life, Aria is determined to rise to this new challenge, knowing that every kick and every moment of hard work brings her closer to her dreams.

Aria is 16 years old and lives in IN

Aria is a fierce and determined young woman who stands up for herself and those she cares about. Having been in the system for seven years, she has endured several unsuccessful attempts to reunite with her mother. As she approaches adulthood, Aria is preparing for the challenges of living independently. While school has never been her favorite place, she has found a true home at her dojang, where she has been training in Tae Kwon Do for years. The structure and discipline of martial arts have given her confidence, purpose, and a supportive community. She is on her way to earning her black belt and dreams of one day becoming an instructor, sharing the valuable lessons that have shaped her life.
