Benson
Business owner and operator, still training and teaching weekly at the school he grew.
Track record
Action Tae Kwon-Do has over 35 years of history teaching Taekwondo across Canberra and Queanbeyan. I took over the school and have grown it into 17 locations, with more instructors, a support team, more members, and better facilities and equipment than ever before.
I've been training since 2003, teaching since 2013 and took ownership in 2022. Growing Action TKD has meant building stronger marketing, better systems and a bigger team, all while keeping the standard of instruction and the culture of the school at the centre of everything we do.
How I work
Consistency
Building the same standard of training and operations across every location, not just the flagship.
Team
Investing in a trained instructor team who hold that standard whether I'm in the room or not.
Culture
Treating culture as the thing that matters most through all of the growth, not an afterthought to it.
Development
Growth doesn't just happen. I've sought out coaching, taken on courses, and built the skills the business actually needed, in marketing, in operations, and in leadership.
