Squamish’s ninja has proven her mettle on the Taekwondo mat.
Serena Ly, an instructor at Â鶹Éç¹ú²úNinja Training, took home a pair of medals at the 2015 BC Provincials Taekwondo Championships in Vancouver on Saturday (March 7).
Ly won a gold medal in sparring and a silver medal in poomsae at the event in the blue belt division. She won her sparring contests 15-9 and 12-9 to secure the gold.
It was only the second Taekwondo event for Ly, who has only been training in the martial art for a year and a half. She has an extensive background in Wushu, karate, acrobatics and weapon training and is in the process of obtaining a black belt in Taekwondo.
Her Â鶹Éç¹ú²úNinja Training school expanded from the Â鶹Éç¹ú²úMartial Arts Centre to The Fitness Centre in November and is completely taking over the Valleycliffe location starting in April.
The school offers classes for adults and children in a variety of different martial arts and general fitness categories.
