Episode 120. A Karate Parent's Journey & Taekwondo Roots
The conversation
About Antionette Moore.
Antionette Moore sat down for Kumite Lifestyle. That conversation is episode 120, “A Karate Parent's Journey & Taekwondo Roots”.
Antionette, who also goes by Tony, lives in Brandon, Florida, on the outskirts of Tampa. She is the mom of TJ Bright, a Kumite Lifestyle ambassador, and the family travels to Plant City for his training.
She is a pharmacist by trade with a doctorate in pharmacy and 24 years in the field, and she also has a degree in philosophy. She trained in martial arts herself when she was younger, with an instructor who made her feel like his own child.
Antionette shares TJ's journey from a parent's view, why losses can be teaching moments, and why she tells him not to be complacent.
