We have a major problem with the upcoming generation in society. Half of the Dutch population is overweight. Every generation of children is becoming less mobile. One in five children never plays outside. In addition, sports associations and clubs are losing more and more young members. Sports and exercise are under pressure from all angles. As a result, children are becoming increasingly unhealthy and there is less connection between children.
Sporthelden-op-school was founded for this purpose with the mission to bring about a revolution in sports and exercise, health and prevention, so that children become more aware of the importance of exercise and health. This will result in them becoming fitter and being fitter.
A good example is followed by a good example. That is why sporthelden-op-school chooses top athletes who make good examples visible, tangible, recognizable and feasible by putting them in front of the class. I am happy that I am one of these top athletes to inspire the new generation to a better lifestyle and to actually encourage them to take action. With this we show the children that exercise and working on your health does not have to be difficult, and that you can also take small steps in this, with pleasure. In addition to a presentation, every top athlete also gives sports-specific clinics to the children. I provide taekwondo clinics and I think it is great to see how this can get children excited. This way they move well and have fun!
I am really looking forward to inspiring as many children as possible to move more in the coming period!

Yesterday, through SportheldenOpSchool and gym teacher (and also taekwondo teacher) Hamza Koubia and gym teacher Wessel, I was able to provide three clinics at the OnzeWereld primary school in The Hague. This brought about taekwondo to around 60 pupils from group 6, group 7A and 7B. It was great to experience the enthusiasm of the children. In turn, they inspire me with their positive energy. Not only was it great to see the youth practicing your passionate sport, but you also contribute to the vision of a healthier lifestyle with sufficient exercise. My sincere wish is to keep them this positive energy and health that they showed me yesterday for as long as possible.
Thanks to SportheldenOpSchool and the representatives of the OnzeWereld primary school!

After a long time away from the international stage, this past weekend I finally made my return to the mat. It felt almost surreal — yet completely familiar. The tension in the arena, the bright lights, the buzz of the crowd, and the voice over the speakers — everything fell right back into place.
After a successful weigh-in on Friday, I stepped into my first match on Saturday against Malaysia. It was a tight and intense fight that ended in a draw, but I managed to secure the win in the extra round. Up next was Hungary in the quarterfinals. We battled through two hard-fought rounds, but after another draw, I unfortunately came up just short.
Despite my long absence, I’m proud of the level I was able to show throughout the tournament. A medal wasn't in the cards this time, but I feel stronger than ever and can clearly see the progress in my performance. This experience has only fueled my hunger for more, and I'm heading into the next event with full energy and confidence!

In the world of elite sports, timing is everything. Every second matters, every move has to hit the mark – and nothing is more important than having a body and mind in peak condition. That’s why I’m incredibly proud to announce my new partnership with Elvou, the rising lifestyle brand that’s changing the game when it comes to natural health and performance.
As an athlete, I know what it takes to compete at the highest level. Discipline, dedication, focus – but above all, a deep understanding of how your body works, and how to fuel it. That’s exactly where Elvou comes in. From the very first moment, I felt a connection with their mission: helping people perform and live better through honest, effective, and science-backed health products.
Elvou isn’t just about supplements – it’s a movement. A brand built on purity, transparency, and real results. No fluff, no fillers – just what your body actually needs.
Elvou was born in the Netherlands, out of frustration with the overload of artificial products and superficial health marketing. The founders – coming from backgrounds in sports, science, and nutrition – wanted to build something better. Something clean, honest, and powerful.
Today, Elvou is more than a brand. It’s a growing community of athletes, professionals, and conscious consumers who believe in real health and long-term performance.
This partnership is about more than just branding. It’s about aligning with a vision that mirrors my own. “What you put into your body determines how you perform – not just in training or competition, but in every part of life. Elvou gives me exactly what I need to unlock my full potential."
In the coming months, I'll be sharing valuable insights on training, recovery, and nutrition. Elvou will also launch exclusive products and routines focused on performance and wellbeing – made for all people who want to take things to the next level.
This collaboration is a step forward. It’s about setting a new standard in sport and wellness – one where performance and health go hand in hand. No more compromises. Just a lifestyle that supports longevity, energy, and excellence
With pure nutrition, that’s when you truly perform.
A proud taekwondo athlete with Olympic ambitions who represents the Netherlands at international tournaments. Besides the passion for sports, Aymen is also a Master student of International Law & Global Governance at Tilburg University.
