Fındık unable to find training partners

The captain of the Muay Thai national team, Fındık, said she had awards and national and international achievements in taekwondo, boxing, muay thai, kick boxing and wushu disciplines. Fındık noted that it had been more than two decades since she had been introduced to martial arts through her elder sister. “Since that day when I she introduced me to martial arts, sports have become an inseparable part of my life. Apart from the obligatory break I had to have because of a very unfortunate accident I had when I was 13 and the other break I took when I first got married, I never stopped training,” she said.  

Noting that her husband was a great support to her, she said: “After training for about five months following the second and longer break, I became the national champion in taekwondo. I have also trained myself in five different disciplines with the support of my husband, who is a physical education teacher. I have won various awards in so many national and international tournaments. But recently I have focused on muay thai because the tournaments overlap with each other.”
