Core Programme – MOVE70!

12-year-old Primary 4 student Ka Nam loves to move her body to the rhythm of street dance in her mind, whether she is in a line dance studio or on the street, riding on the lift or even in her seat in the classroom, and she is confident in everything she does. At the beginning of Primary 1, Ka Nam struggled academically due to her dyslexia and lacked self-confidence. 

After joining a dance programme organised by IHKSports, Ka Nam finally found her own stage. She quickly learnt various dance steps and movements and gradually lost her self-doubt, regaining her self-confidence and smile. She hopes to continue improving her dance skills, participating in more competitions and performances, and says, “I hope to keep dancing and dancing until I don’t want to dance anymore.”

It has been three years since Kwan Yat joined FENCING Inspires!, whenever he steps onto the fencing strip during competitions, he becomes calm and composed. 

“Since I was a child, my concentration was rather lagging and I often failed to pay attention in class, sometimes I had to repeat the dialogue several times before I could understand and respond to it. Through joining the fencing class, I have maintained a regular weekly exercise routine, and gradually became more willing to listen to the instructor’s guidance patiently, and my concentration level has improved significantly. Now, whenever I step onto the fencing path at a tournament, I become calm and collected, and I have improved the problems that my lack of concentration used to bring to my daily life and classroom learning.”
