McKenzie Bryce striving for excellence at the Hyeon Mu New Zealand Open 2021.
Manuel Wehi - September 22, 2021
Hi my name is McKenzie and this was my experience at the Hyeon Mu Taekwondo open.
The Hyeon Mu New Zealand Open 2021 is a 2 day Taekwondo tournament where clubs from all over the country come to compete. I really enjoyed the competition but one thing I hated was waiting. At one point I waited over 2 hours sitting down with 11 pads on waiting for my next event. It was really annoying but worth the wait. I won 1 bronze medal, 3 gold medals and 1 trophy. The bronze medal was for sparring and the 3 gold medals were for poomsae (my routine). I did individual poomsae, pairs poomsae and team poomsae. The trophy was my favourite thing I won. The trophy was for best male coloured belt poomsae in the country! I was the only coloured in my club to get a trophy. Overall, this year's competition was the best competition I've been to so far.
