After the studies, in 2010, he knew Man Nature Energy Association in Palau, and immediately decided to collaborate to the initiative by moving to Sardinia and finding work initially within an engineering study, then devoting himself full-time, body and soul to the association. His growth path started early with a strong interest in psychology, with personal studies on mechanisms of emotional wounds or mental block that prevents peoples to reach that serenity and inside happiness that even financial wealth could not give you.

Gifted with a s sporting nature and having started at 5, he tried countless sporting activities, but decided 3 years ago to satisfy his ever-present need for movement and also studying and spiritual need in the practice of Tai Ji Quan, the so famous "meditation in movement”. The origin of this ancient discipline is lost among the mountains and the legends sacred to Chinese Taoism, from which many spiritual and well-being practices were born, related to the movement of energy, the “Qi” inside our bodies and around us. Currently he is learning Tai Ji Quan and some elements of Qi Gong, as well as many therapeutic massage techniques, from Cristiano Annunziata. Annunziata is a physiotherapist and direct disciple of Master Manca Giancarlo "You Li Tai”, head coach of the Italian National Wushu, Kung Fu and Tai Ji Quan team, which is in turn a disciple of Grand Master You Xuan De, abbot of the temple "Taihe" in the Wudang Mountains in China.
