About me
I have been working in the field of physical education and sports for more than 30 years.
In childhood, I practiced artistic gymnastics, received the title of Master of Sports of the USSR, and subsequently received a higher education in physical education. Sports captivated me so much that I dreamed of becoming a trainer and connecting my life with sports. After graduating from the State University of Physical Education, I got a job at the first Russian fitness club World Class, where I worked my way up from instructor to fitness director. Later on, became a President of the Russian Fitness-Aerobics Federation. In 2005 defended PhD thesis on the creation of fitness training technologies.
