Here is to Sangina Baidya. The first Nepali woman to get into Olympics.

"........Sangina Baidya took us to the Olympics and made sports into a viable career. She came to Kathmandu from Trishuli after her SLC to join college. She had always been good in sports but there was no martial arts in Trishuli. Bruce Lee's 'Enter the Dragon' inspired her to learn taekwondo at Rangashala.

After only three months of training, Sangina was selected from Bagmati zone to participate in the national game. "We hadn't expected to win but I won and everybody began noticing me," says Sangina who is a celebrity today. Since then till date, she has maintained the National Champion title in her weight category. As long as she can, she plans to be an active sportsperson. After that, her goal is to coach and produce young champions. Says she, "When you aim for something, just go for it. Let no obstacle be an issue. Always believe in 'I can' and you will."......"
