Meet Aariv Mehta.
He is eight years old and a first degree black belt.
​
Aariv started Taekwondo when he was five years old.
His parents wanted to improve his focus and obedience.
Taekwondo has helped him gain more
strength and discipline.
The challenges and obstacles he overcame
was learning and remembering the forms.
Now, Aariv approaches challenges
and obstacles with more confidence.
​
Aariv's motivation to work hard is to
not gain weight and stay healthy.
His proudest accomplishment is when
he earned his First Degree Black Belt!
​
Aariv's advice for current and future students;
Work hard and practice it when you can.
​
His advice to his younger self;
Dude, keep working hard, you'll get there.
​
His advice to his older self;
You will know more than me always, so keep at it.
​
Aariv's Taekwondo training helps him obtain his goals,
by teaching him strength and focus. This will help
me in what I want to do later in life.
