About me:
My journey into the world of movement and wellness began at the tender age of 6, when I discovered my passion for dance and sports. Since then, I’ve pursued these passions with dedication and vigor, achieving notable milestones along the way having competed in both the Kazakhstan Athletics Championships along with prestigious oriental dance competitions.
With a solid foundation in athletics and a deep-rooted love for movement, I transitioned into the realm of coaching in 2019. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with diverse clientele, from fitness enthusiasts to competitive athletes.
In 2020, I embarked on an exciting journey as a stretching coach in Turkey, further honing my skills and expanding my horizons in the field of flexibility and mobility. Additionally, I’ve had the opportunity to establish and operate my own stretching studio, providing tailored guidance and support to individuals seeking to enhance their physical well-being.
Driven by a passion for empowering others to unlock their full potential, I am committed to helping my clients achieve their fitness goals, improve their flexibility, and cultivate a deeper connection with their bodies. With a holistic approach to wellness and a wealth of experience in both coaching and personal achievements, I am dedicated to guiding you on your journey towards optimal health and vitality.
