Mr. Bobby Kooiman has practiced Taekwondo for over 20 years and holds a 5th Dan Black Belt. He and Mrs. Sarah Smith grew up training within the same association, with Bobby training at Flandreau Taekwondo under Master Kevin Deutscher.

In addition to his martial arts background, Bobby is a licensed personal trainer and works at Avera Hospital, where he performs MRI scans. His professional experience reflects the same discipline, precision, and care that he brings to our school.

Outside of training, Bobby enjoys music, gaming, and lifting, and is known as a reliable, honest, and motivating presence. He is the kind of instructor and teammate who will push you to be better—because he genuinely believes in your potential. We’re incredibly lucky to have him as part of our team.
