A London teen has earned multiple medals at the World Karate Championships in Ireland.
Kaleb Boyle took home seven medals, including four gold. He was the top Canadian in his class.
Intensity is evident in his facial expressions as he practices at his home in northwest London.
The black belt ‘Karate Kid’ is the best in his age group. Not bad for a boy about to turn 13.
“I fell in love with the sport right after I had my first class,”’ Kaleb told CTV News London.
He said karate has helped him cope with bullying, ADHD and vision problems.
Since then, his mother Lacy Hamlin-Boyle has watched his confidence and self esteem grow.
