WHO AM I
MY NAME IS WILLIAM PAUL.
I WAS BORN IN FRANCE AND I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN LIVING THERE UNTIL I FINALLY DECIDED TO MOVE TO NORWAY TO START THE YEAR 2022.
I DISAVOW THE MORE RECENT LEVELLING DOWN OF THE FRENCH SOCIETY, YET I REMAIN DEEPLY GRATEFUL AND PROUD OF THE FRENCH HERITAGE I BENEFITED FROM.
I FELL IN LOVE WITH NORWAY, BOTH THE AW-INSPIRING LANDS AND THE KINDNESS OF ITS INHABITANTS.
THIS IS WHY I HAVE COME HERE TO SHARE WITH YOU MY KNOWLEDGE AND MY PASSION.
MY RELATIONSHIP TO SPORT
WHEN I WAS SIXTEEN, I DECIDED TO START WORKING OUT, COMPELLED BY THE NATURAL DRIVE OF MANY TEENAGE BOYS TO BECOME TOUGHER.
MY FIRST YEARS OF PHYSICAL CONDITIONNING WERE RATHER SOLITARY AND BASED ON BODYWEIGHT MOVEMENTS WHICH APPEARED TO ME RIGHT AWAY TO DEVELOP MORE FUNCTIONAL ABILITIES.
AT MAJORITY, I JOINED THE ELITE FIREMEN BRIGADE OF PARIS, MAINLY FOR THE PHYSICAL CHALLENGE IT REPRESENTED.
AFTER MY SERVING OF A YEAR, I GOT BACK TO SCIENTIFIC STUDIES, WHILE IN MY FREE-TIME, I WAS OPENING MYSELF TO NEW FIELDS OF SPORT, THE MOST SIGNIFICANT BEING MIXED-MARTIAL-ARTS, POWERLIFTING AND ATHLETICISM.
AN ARTIST
UNTIL MY LATE TEENAGE YEARS, I WAS NOT PARTICULARLY FOND OF SPORTS IN GENERAL...
I ALSO DISREGARDED MY PHYSICAL APPEARANCE AND ABILITIES, CONSIDERING THESE TO BE TOO SUPERIFICIAL TO CARE MUCH ABOUT.
I WAS MORE DRAWN BY COMPLEX ABSTRACT SUBJECTS AND MY PASSION FOR ARTS, ESPECIALLY MUSIC AND POETRY, WAS ALREADY WELL ESTABLISHED.
MY UNDERSTANDING AND RESPECT FOR SPORT CAME VERY GRADUALLY AFTER I STARTED TO PRACTICE AND LEARN ABOUT IT.
I WAS NOT SATISFIED WITH THE BASIC KNOWLEDGE OF "EXERCICES PATTERNS / EXPECTED RESULTS" SO I HAD TO DIG DEEPER INTO PROCESSES, AND THE MORE I LEARNED, THE MORE CURIOUS I BECAME ABOUT THE ASTOUNDING COMPLEXITY OF THE BODY FUNCTIONALITIES.
BEFORE I KNEW IT, A NEW BLAZING PASSION, WHICH WOULD REQUIRE MUCH OF ME, WAS BORN.
IT FINALLY APPEARED TO ME THAN THE HUMAN BODY ITSELF IS BUT A WORK OF ART!
A VISIONARY
HUMANITY IS BOND BY SOLID CHAINS:
OLD RELIGIONS, NEW OBSCURANTISMS,
THE VIRTUAL TRAPS OF SOCIAL MEDIA DESIGNS,
MORE AND MORE EFFICIENT TOOLS OF MASS MANIPULATION...
TO FREE ONESELF AND PERHAPS OTHERS,
I TAKES COURAGE AND IT TAKES STRENGTH,
IT TAKES AN UNWAVERING DETERMINATION TO FACE THE WORLD
AND TO DARE DREAM OF GRANDEUR.
