After his Achilles tendon injury, he had to start everything
from the beginning. It was a very hard time for him, and he
was wondering whether or not that was the end of his dance
and Martial Arts career. That didn’t stop him from believing
that he would overcome this obstacle, that he’d come back
even stronger and better than before his accident. The first

step was listening to his doctors and therapists following
their advice exactly. Once he was given the green light to
maximize his training, he started to exercise not only for
ballet, but like he was going to fight in a professional title
fight. It was then that Ihe remembered his childhood. He
knew that if he trained in Martial Arts he could be back to
dance again. He could get “back on his feet”. Thanks to Mar-
tial Arts, today he feel stronger than ever. He want to tell
this story to every kid and to everyone out there who might
be going through the same kind of physical challenge that
he went through. What he want to tell them is “be smart”,

be strong and disciplined, because if he could do it,
you can too
