“LOVE BEGETS JOY” and that’s why you will always find Mardika (Dika) on the court with a big wide smile! The badminton court has always been her security blanket as that’s where she feels most like home, where she can freely unleash her true self and where she can daydream and be lost in the sea of shuttles. As a former Surabaya State (Indonesia) Badminton Team player, her experience and journey as a competitive player has allowed her to pass on her LOVE for badminton so that hundreds and thousands of her students in years to come can continue to live and breathe the JOY of the sport.
