There comes a time where you must teach what you have been thought for so many years, the time where the torch that has been passed unto you, that you must not pass unto the next generation, and this is where My Advocacy for Taekwondo starts.

My name is Riley Giron from DLSUD ECE12, and I am currently a 1st Dan Black Belter at Taekwondo, and I have been learning taekwondo for 7 years in my journey in life, and now it’s my turn to teach others what I have been thought at Taekwondo to raise both the Discipline and Confidence of those who attend Taekwondo Classes as an Advocacy.

For the past few years during this pandemic, I have been going through various gyms and places to offer my assistance to my coach volunteer to become a Coach Assistant and a Teacher to the students who attend Taekwondo, from Children as young as four, to mostly Teenagers and Adults at times.

From the past year, up until these current times, I have been Teaching Taekwondo and Assisting my coach at times mostly on Flex Gym (https://www.facebook.com/FlexGymTKD?_rdc=1&_rdr), MIPSS (https://web.facebook.com/mipss.edu.ph), and sometimes at St. Joseph’s Academy (https://web.facebook.com/sjalpofficial) to fully comprehend and both develop the students as well as myself in the art of Taekwondo.

During all of these Teachings to the students, I have experienced both hardships, and joys from Teaching During the last summer, classes were very frequent and I was able to teach and gain a lot of experience, but ever since classes came back, the routine on teaching has been changed, adopting to the schedules that the students have on their Academic classes.

So now, every Saturday and Sunday from 10:30am to 12:00nn, I am at MIPSS Teaching Students the Art of Taekwondo, and at 2:00pm until 5:00pm, I Teach and Assist at Flex Gym, and at every Wednesday and Fridays, I teach at St. Joseph’s Academy if I Have some time available.

From the first class of Taekwondo and every classes that follow afterwards, we practice the Discipline of treating one another and ourselves with respect. We carry out this practice by bowing to one another. The instructor bows to the students, and the students bow to the instructor. And before a sparring match, the students bow to each other.

With Korean Words such as Chariot, Kyung-re, Junbi, and other numerous words are used by Teachers / Instructors to guide and command the students on what to do on Taekwondo and guide the students unto becoming something much larger than themselves and help them grow and develop their Inner skills, Self Defense, Discipline, and Confidence.

Teaching Self-Defense to students took me by the arm as I aim to teach the students the proper kicks, blocks, defenses and so on.

Teaching Discipline to students can be difficult, especially at the younger sides of the students as they could be wild at times, but the older ones are much more easier to handle as they have basic knowledge of Discipline.

And Teaching Confidence to students can be fun at times as you encourage the students to give out their absolute best in themselves, and cheering them on like a parent would do on their child.

There can be times as well where i feel pressured and experience difficulties, like the times where you expect yourself to teach the students the best you can to not let the parents down and disappoint them with my teachings.

All in all, the teaching process can be long and hard, and with this Advocacy, I have realized that being a teacher takes a lot of effort and love to give out the lessons that the students will need to further enhance their self-growth, and that teaching others can also teach you a lot as well.

This has been a great journey, I think I will still be continuing to teach Taekwondo to students in need.
And it is all thanks to Flex Gym for helping me achieve this Advocacy.
