Yahya AL GHOTANY

The first of a family of seven children, Yahya had no choice other than to leave Syria with his family to find a safer place when the war broke out. Once he arrived in the Azraq Refugee Camp in Jordan, he started to practise taekwondo. He now trains twice a day as part of the Taekwondo Humanitarian Foundation (THF)’s Azraq Academy. After only five years of practising his sport, he reached black belt 2^nd dan level. He was a member of the Refugee Olympic Team at the Olympic Games Paris 2024.
