FROM CHILDHOOD DREAMS TO WORLD CHAMPION TITLE
Since childhood I searched for my path through football, volleyball, parkour, piano and chess league. Nothing fulfilled me like street workout, which I discovered when I saw a guy doing variations on bars at a playground. Within a few months I mastered the back lever and I knew — this is it.
In 2019 I competed for the first time at the championship in Žilina and didn't even advance from the qualifications. Three years later, however, I stood on the highest podium at the World Championship in Riga as the world champion in the middleweight category.
