Taekwondo has not only taught me self-defence,
0:04
but also resilience and determination.
0:07
Qualities that have helped me during these uncertain times.
0:12
I started taekwondo training when I was 9,
0:15
and there was no doubt in my mind,
0:17
I wanted to earn my black belt.
0:21
Gradually, I went from rank to rank.
0:24
Moving up through the belts until I was ready.
0:29
The time had come for my black belt grading.
0:32
And then ...
0:34
COVID hit.
0:36
The world dived into lockdown, and just like that, the grading was postponed.
0:43
It felt like the world had paused.
0:48
Outside activities like netball and cross-country were cancelled.
0:53
School and taekwondo went online.
0:57
Remote learning was a struggle, but I would give myself goals like:
1:01
"If you don't finish your assignment there's no taekwondo tonight."
1:07
We turned a room into a training space,
1:10
and Dad, who had no experience in martial arts, became my training partner.
1:16
Grading was finally back on,
1:19
but a little different.
1:21
Everyone was ready.
1:22
My instructors, the Grandmaster and even my family in Queensland were looking on.
1:32
This is what it was all leading up to.
1:39
I kicked, punched, chopped and flew through the air.
1:44
Nothing could stop me. Not even COVID.
1:49
The pressure was intense, but I ignored it.
1:52
Then ...
1:53
Savannah, congratulations.
1:54
You've just become the first person from our club to grade online to black belt,
1:59
and I could not be prouder.
2:02
I did it. I became an 11-year-old black belt.
2:07
I was overwhelmed with emotion.
2:11
The world had thrown so many obstacles in my way,
2:14
but taekwondo training had given me the resilience and perseverance to get through.
2:20
So, look out world, here I come.
