Our student spotlight this week is on Micah Philipp. Micah practices with his older sister Maya and helped to inspire his aunt Sarah to practice as well. Micah is currently a red-black belt and has been steadily improving since he started 2 years ago as a white belt. Micah has a great attitude and can be counted on to give 110% on any day, regardless of the circumstances. We love how Micah has persevered through the challenges presented by his Tae Kwon Do practice and the maturity he shows through consistently high motivation. Micah is an inspiration to his peers and teachers alike and we are proud to have him as a student at Asheville Sun Soo!
