Sport Specific Information
When and where did you begin this sport? He took up the sport at age 14 in Almaty, Kazakhstan.
Why this sport? He wanted to practise a sport to maintain his fitness. He switched from a regular school to a sports school, initially intending to pursue swimming. When the swimming team turned him down, a coach suggested he get involved in fencing instead. "I was small and plump. I thought I needed to change something but my parents forbade me from doing amateur sports in addition to my studies. I decided to switch schools without telling my parents. I was about 13 at the time. The first day of fencing was general physical training. I failed everything. Then I picked up a sword for the first time and won against everyone. I don't know how it happened. The goal was just to win."
