Hi There! Meet Ariani, the head coach of Francis Taekwondo, proudly holding a 3rd Dan Black Belt. Ariani's journey in Taekwondo began at the age of 6 under the guidance of master Mr. Habib Francis, a 7th Dan Black Belt.
Over the years, Ariani has also coached various other sports including gymnastics, soccer, basketball, and swimming. In 2018, she ventured into personal training to help individuals achieve their personal and fitness goals, and she completed her Bachelor of Exercise and Sport Science degree in 2023. Ariani's future plans include pursuing a Masters of Clinical Exercise Physiology starting in 2024.
Francis Taekwondo was created with the aim of catering to individuals at every skill level, from beginners to experienced black belts. The focus is on developing skills, boosting confidence, and most importantly, having fun. While Ariani introduces fundamental moves during the classes, she believes that the real progress happens through continuous practise, performance, and perfection at each individual's pace. She is excited about the journey ahead and looks forward to sharing the transformative power of Francis Taekwondo with the community.
