Diana Lopez

I have a strong family, and they're not going to baby me, even though I am the baby. They're never gonna do that.

Every first Friday, my father would go to confession, and he took very seriously the faith he would someday transmit to us.

It's so emotional. You train so hard. I know the hours we put into it.

Because of my mom's compassion, direction, and knowledge, she gives me that extra push to be the best person I can be.

I've been training super hard at the Lopez Taekwondo Academy in Houston, which belongs to my brother Jean. For me, I think confidence is the biggest thing; it's all mental. I train with the best of the best, including my brother Steven, a five-time world champion who won Olympic gold medals.

I think our legacy will always be there. My brothers and I have carved a path for all taekwondo players, not just in the U.S.
