A boy from the Amalfi Coast, raised between the port and football-filled squares of Salerno, transforms a devastating accident into a powerful journey of growth. Passionate about sports but without the means to train formally, Ivan taught himself to swim and pursued football until a severe injury at 19 left him nearly paralyzed. Rejecting surgery and despair, he found hope in the strength of the sea, the spirit of southern Italy, and the guidance of a physiotherapist who taught him, “Movement is life.” Through resilience and determination, Ivan recovered and discovered that mind and heart shape what’s possible. Leaving Salerno, he became Europe’s first sponsored personal trainer and pioneering online personal training courses that have inspired thousands across Europe. For the first time, Ivan shares his story — a tale of passion, family, pizza, piazzas, and the relentless Italian spirit that fueled his climb from rock bottom to success.
