Education and Academic Excellence

My journey into the realm of wellness began with a solid foundation in education. I completed my Bachelor's degree in Sports and Fitness Specialists at The College of Physical Education and Sport PALESTRA Prague from 2013 to 2016. During this time, I immersed myself in a comprehensive curriculum that included subjects like Didactics of Physical Education and Sport, Psychology of Sport, and Kinesiology. My dedication to excellence was reflected in my state exam results, where I achieved top grades in Theory and Methodology of the Chosen Sport Discipline, Kinesiology, and Sports Medicine.

The cornerstone of my Bachelor's degree was my thesis on "Muscle Imbalance and Its Compensation (Primarily for Scoliosis)." This research not only showcased my commitment to understanding the intricacies of the human body but also laid the foundation for my future work in holistic well-being.

Mastering Wellness and Personalized Care

Building on my academic journey, I pursued a Master's Degree in Wellness Specialist from The College of Physical Education and Sport PALESTRA Prague, spanning from 2016 to 2018. During this two-year study, I delved deeper into subjects that resonated with my passion for comprehensive well-being. The state exams that followed highlighted my expertise in Psychology of Health, Nutrition in Wellness Programs, Contemporary Trends in Wellness, and Project Processing.

My Master's thesis, titled "The Effect of Physical Activity on the Maintenance of Muscle Mass and Well-being of an Oncology Patient," demonstrated my commitment to using movement as a tool for enhancing the lives of individuals facing unique challenges.

A Portfolio of Expertise and Specializations

Throughout my journey, I have acquired a range of certifications and specializations that allow me to offer a comprehensive approach to wellness. As a certified Massage Therapist for Sports and Rehabilitation Massage, I bring the healing power of touch to my practice. My roles as a Physical Education Health Trainer, Fitness Instructor, and Massage Therapist outside the health sector underscore my commitment to fostering healthier lives through education and movement.

My expertise extends beyond traditional fitness realms. I completed a course in informatics in physical therapy at the MFK Institute, where I developed skills in diagnostics, therapies such as FASCIA, LIGAMENTS, TENDER POINTS, TRIGGER POINTS, ACTIVE ZONES, and YOGA, and much more.

Advocacy and Collaborations

My commitment to holistic well-being extends beyond individual sessions. I collaborated with an external company to develop exercise programs for patients with various diseases. This effort involved the preparation of printed and online materials, reflecting my desire to empower individuals with tailored solutions for their health journey.

One of my notable collaborations resulted in the creation of an educational brochure titled "Physical Activities for Patients (Not Only) with Gynecologic Malignancies." In partnership with the patient organization Veronica, ESGO, and ENGAGE, this brochure offers invaluable guidance for individuals preparing for, undergoing, or recovering from treatment.
