In the outskirts of Kisumu City, at a small gym in Nyamasaria, a legacy is being nurtured, one kick at a time.

At just 19-years-old, Stacy Dock has already etched her name into the annals of Kenyan Taekwondo, following closely in the footsteps of her father, Vincent Dock, a former national Taekwondo captain.

With a gold medal from the 2024 Korean Ambassadors Cup and dreams of Olympic glory, Stacy is not just chasing records—she’s continuing a legacy. Stacy Dock training in Nyamasaria, Kisumu. [Washington Onyango,Standard]

Stacy’s father, Vincent Dock, is a household name in Kenyan taekwondo. A former national team captain, Vincent’s career was cut short as he battled cancer, from which he has since recovered.
