==Early life==
Meijer was born on 22 July 1959 in Winschoten, Netherlands.〔〔 He is the fifth out of six children born in his family (he has two brothers and three sisters), and his parents divorced when he was just three years old.〔 His mother took responsibility for raising him.〔 Meijer trained in judo from the ages of 7 to 11, and achieved brown belt rank in that art.〔 From the ages of 11 to 15, he played football.〔 He then trained briefly in Shotokan karate at age of 14 before beginning to practise taekwondo couple of years later.〔〔 At the time, the only style of taekwondo available in his home region was the International Taekwon-Do Federation (ITF) style.〔〔
Meijer began training in ITF taekwondo under Jan Suiveer, and later continued under Wim Bos, one of Suiveer's students.〔 In 1981, he began training in the World Taekwondo Federation (WTF) style of taekwondo.〔 The main reason he moved from the ITF to the WTF was because the latter organisation had gained Olympic recognition.〔 He also expressed dissatisfaction with the poor standard of organisation of ITF competition in the Netherlands at the time.〔
