2. My name is ArtemVasil’chenko. I live in
Sochi and I’m 14 years old. I’m a pupil of
school number 100. People call our school
the Olympic one and I think it’s because of
its location.
3. Imeretinskaya lowland where the
Olympics-2014 will take place is not far from my school. I’m also keen
on sport. That’s why I’m looking forward to watching the Games and
meeting famous sportsmen there.
4. As for my favourite kind of sport it is kickboxing. A year ago I heard about a
talented coach and a very good man whose name is Ruslan Tozliyan. I really
got interested in him and decided to take up boxing.
5. When I think of the reasons that brought me into sport I am sure it’s definitely
because of my coach’s personality. He is а brave, determined and positive person.
He never gives up on his career. Ruslan started boxing when he was only five years
old. His first coach was his father. When the boy turned over ten he went on
training at youth kickboxing club in Adler.
6. At seventeen he moved to Tuapse - a small town on the Black sea coast and began
training with his mentor – the honoured coach of Russia Vladimir Burtsev. One year
later Ruslan became a master of sports. He took part in 32 fights with professionals,
and only one of them in Turkey was lost.
He started training children in 2003 and he has been doing that for ten years.
Nowadays Ruslan Tozliyan has his own school with more than one hundred children.
7. I do my best to achieve the same success as
my coach has. By now I have already won
5 big fights and got five gold medals.
Kickboxing became a part of my life. It’s a
great way to keep fit and I believe
everyone should go in for sports.
