Hello and welcome to my blog!

My name is Marie Claire and I come from the island of Malta. I'm a pharmacist by profession, but am also rather involved in the world of martial arts and combat sports. Besides sports, my other interests include travelling and reading.

I started training at the tender age of 9, when my cousin introduced me to WTF Taekwondo, a martial art which I am completely in love with and still train. I now hold a 2nd Dan black belt in Taekwondo and a coaching certificate from the Malta Olympic Coach Academy. I coach and train Taekwondo at the club at which I initially started training.

For a short while, I also practiced kickboxing and gymnastics and have attended seminars, both locally and abroad, were I was exposed to different martial arts and combat sports such as Hapkimudo, Tang Soo Do, Shotokan Karate, Haedong Kumdo, Sonmudo and Taekkyon.

Each and every experience I have had has taught me something or other, which in turn has made me a better athlete and coach. That is what inspired me to start this project.

What is this project?

For a trial period of 6 months, besides my regular training, I shall endeavor to attend 1 training session per week of a different martial art or combat sport which will change every month. I will then chronicle my experiences, including some basic information about the martial art or combat sport, on this blog.

​Though I've already got a few MACS lined up, any coaches/athletes wishing me to practice their sport or attend their clubs, kindly contact me on macsmedley@gmail.com or go to the Contact Me section of this site.

Other than that, I hope you enjoy following my journey. Stay tuned!
