West Vancouver’s Ethan Lippman kicked it into high gear at the Canadian National Taekwondo Championships held recently in Ottawa, fighting his way to gold in three different events.
Lippman earned top spot in the junior freestyle individual, junior freestyle team and junior recognized male team events. Lippman trains at North Shore Taekwondo with Master Tony Kook.
“I couldn’t think of a more committed, hardworking, and humble athlete deserving of this achievement,” Kook told the North Shore News. The victories earned Lippman a trip to the World Championships scheduled for November in Taiwan where he will compete in all three events.
