Kickboxing has taught me to fight for one goal but above all it has shown me that when people from all over the world fight towards the same goal things go better. In my case I have met people from different countries and friends who have taught me how to support us to improve our sport.
I have been able to share it with my teammates with my national team and with my own opponents that reaching out to others to feel affection, strength and support to evolve are achieved from the heart and love .
