OUR SPECIAL GUEST FOR THIS CLASS:
Frank Akkerboom is the head instructor of Perth Soo Bahk Do. He started his martial arts journey when he was 14 years old and already back then he had the dream to once open a school himself, which came to realisation in 2014. Frank has been active in several martial arts but his passion lies within the Korean styles. He currently holds 4th Dan level in Soo Bahk Do (Korean karate), 3rd Dan level in Haedong Kumdo (Korean sword art) and a 3rd Dan in Tang Soo Do (very similar to Soo Bahk Do). He has won many international tournament titles in the past, but he’s mostly passionate about the personal journey through practicing and teaching the art. Always looking for learning and training opportunities Frank has travelled to many seminars and camps, both nationally and internationally. He has had the pleasure to train with the grandmaster on many occasions and has been guided by internationally acclaimed senior instructors from over 25 countries. He’s strongly involved with the development of Soo Bahk Do within Australia and if possible, travels to Korea each year for his own development. He strongly believes in teaching in an engaging but respectful manner which supports all the students to take in the most from the classes. Frank’s biggest passion is to instil self-worth in all his students, something he himself has found the most valuable benefit from practicing after having struggled with this himself in his childhood and early teens.
