From training to trainer

“I am Maxim and I am 18 years old. I started with freerunning On the schoolyard with some friends. Because I quickly fell in love with this fantastic sport, I continued training more and more intensively. I do this under the guidance of my trainer. Danilo Kooistra. It was partly because of him that I started giving training myself and coaching others. I would love to have my own training later. want to set up a company in the field of freerunning and physiotherapy. 

Sports have been a big part of my childhood. That's why I think it's important that every child can play sports and has the same opportunities. It's not just important for children to stay fit, but sports can also help their social lives. You can make many lifelong friends in the world of sports.

Every child has a talent, give them the chance to discover it!
