My name is Dimitra Magkanoudaki.

I started fencing in 1990 and stopped in 2008 . I participated in the 2004 Olympic Games where they took place in my country Greece, where with my team we won the 8th place in epee. Now I am a coach for young children and my purpose is to transfer all my knowledge, experiences and my love for this sport!

We are all in the same boat: Nikita Juravlev and the passion for rafting

The passion that river people share leads to an incredible intercultural understanding. Rafting guides, technicians and athletes, with the support of the World Rafting Federation, learn to cooperate and look forward, with the aim to transform the differences into strength and a starting point for a positive and productive confrontation. Rafting as a team sport is a perfect platform to increase a global cooperation and raise awareness about its benefits.
