Movement is a multifaceted journey encompassing physical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions
Movement is more than just physical activity; it's a way to connect with your body, mind, and spirit. It encompasses variety of practices that encourage health, vitality, and well-being.
Who is Dima?
I am a dedicated movement practitioner and athlete whose passion for athleticism ignited in my teenage years. At 15, I dove into Olympic weightlifting, training rigorously under an esteemed coach for seven years. This dedication paid off when I became the Junior Champion at 17 and began competing in various weightlifting and powerlifting events.
In the last 10 years, I have discovered a world of movement inspired by the work of Ido Portal, Movement Lisboa, Primal Moves, Fighting Monkey, and many others leading the way in physical movement research. This exploration has become my daily practice, and I am passionate about sharing my experiences and insights with others, helping them unlock their own potential through movement and deeper connection to their bodies and well-being.
My practice goes beyond mastering techniques; it's about fostering a deeper connection with my body and enhancing awareness and ease.
My journey through various movement disciplines has shaped my practice, where each element informs and enriches the others. My foundation in Olympic weightlifting and powerlifting provides a deep understanding of strength and technique. This is complemented by my martial arts training in boxing and aikido, which emphasizes coordination, balance, and reflexes. Mindfulness and breath awareness have been cultivated through hatha and vinyasa yoga.
As I continue to evolve, I incorporate gymnastic strength and conditioning to build functional strength and control. The Primal Moves Method enhances my intuitive approach to movement, focusing on natural patterns. Integrating breathwork has been essential for improving circulation and promoting relaxation.
I aim to share this journey with you, exploring new possibilities together.
