Arjun David has ONWARD in his genes. His family escaped a difficult political situation in Sri Lanka and found himself in Australia in 1984. He grew to love Australia however although he had loads of ideas and a huge amount of drive to push himself to his limits, Uni was not for him. It wasn't long before the structured thinking of his Dad and the creative thinking of his Mum gave him the skills to launch STING. STING is an international brand for Boxing apparel and equipment. He grew this to its pinnacle when it was used for the Olympics and all the elite athletes within it. Arjun is now the co-founded (with D.J. Walton) of the new brand ONWARD. This brand is being launched with a big heart and a big intention. The energy behind the apparel and boxing equipment is for the everyday person to use it in order to move forward with perseverance and determination. This international brand and its vibrant high class boxing gear will be something we will all be hearing about and needing in our gym cupboard. Our schools, clubs and homes will be connecting with the importance of releasing our stress through boxing for a clearer mind, a strong sense of confidence and a deeper level of determination. Arjun is one of our own Mornington Entrepreneurs who knows no limits to his success.
