Branch Instructor
Stephen White |
Stephen started Rhee Tae Kwon Do in 1998, training under 2nd Dan Instructor Brent Williams in Forster (now 3rd Dan). After getting his black belt in 2000, and a year of being an assistant instructor, Stephen went to Wollongong for university in 2001 and trained there for a short while until he started his own class at Wollongong University.
His favorite techniques are fast open hand techniques incorporating grabs, free-sparring and flying kicks. Stephen’s classes specialise in high intensity with a strong focus on technique and building students personal and physical strength to intensify their destructive ability. He also has a strong traditional focus on patterns, and discusses strategy in sparring and defensive situations.
Stephen works as a Government Lawyer in Procurement, Contracts and Grants. He has a fiancé and a 2 yo daughter; when not training or playing with Sophie he can be found doing projects in his new house.
