Career

[edit]

Anna Siepmann began training in the Korean martial art of taekwondo in 2010 at the age of six, originally for self-defence training. She has been part of the German national team since 2018. In 2018, she took part in the poomsae World Championships held in Taipei.[2] As part of the junior team, Siepmann became vice European champion in the team competition (three-person female team) at the European Championships in Antalya in 2019.[3]

In 2021, Siepmann took part in the European Championships in Seixal, Portugal, winning a bronze medal in the junior women's individual competition in traditional forms and another bronze medal in pairs (a boy and a girl in a team of two) alongside her team-mate Tung-Duong Tim Do.[4][5]

At cadet and junior level, Siepmann became German champion seven times, runner-up five times and bronze medallist twice.[6] Since competing as a senior, she has been German champion three times.[3][7] At the 2023 European Championships in Innsbruck, Siepmann competed in the senior pairs event together with Tung-Duong Tim Do.[8] They qualified in third place and finished sixth in the final.[9]

In December 2024, she competed as part of the female three-person team in traditional poomsae at the World Poomsae Championships in Hong Kong, with which she placed seventh.[10] At the 2025 European Championships held in Tallinn, she competed as part of the German three-person poomsae team in the women's 18 to 30 age class and, after beating Serbia in the quarter-finals, won a bronze medal.[11]
