### My story

Namaste, Tejas sir here. Powerstar Taekwondo Academy started with one branch, now we’ve got five in Ulwe. My students, my family, 150+ strong! I’m a 3rd Dan Black Belt from Kukkiwon, South Korea, and Maharashtra State Referee, but real joy? Watching students go from white belt dreams to black belt reality, medals in hand. Hamari chhoriyan chhoron se kam nahin (our girls are no less than boys). For me, coaching is life. Guru means guide, not just teacher.

### My work

- **Taekwondo classes for all ages**: We train kids (mini warriors) and adults, from beginners to advanced, in small batches.
- **Competitive Taekwondo coaching**: Students win at district, state, even national levels. I stand by them, win or lose.
- **Fitness and flexibility Taekwondo**: Training boosts height, flexibility, mental and physical strength. Zaroori hai, not hanikarak! (It’s necessary, not harmful!)
- **Self-defense and confidence building**: Focus on self-defense for girls, self-confidence, discipline, and positive mindset. Games keep it fun too.
