Genesis Joy School Taekwondo Club was started in February 2007. It was the brainchild of the Director of Genesis Joy
Project Institute, Mr Christopher Barassa and was intended to instill discipline and sense of belonging among the students.
Genesis Joy Project Institute is a self-help initiative started in 2000 in Mathare slums of Nairobi, to provide cheap
and affordable education to children of the area.
The students, and people of the surrounding area who have since joined, are trained by Samson Lipuka, the most experienced
taekwondo Instructor in Kenya. The club is a founder member of 'BETTER LIFE THROUGH TAEKWONDO' and has benn participating
in competitions with much success.
