    Aliaskhab Ramazanov won a silver medal at the 2024 Paralympic Games in Paris, France, in the over 80 kg weight class. He competes in the K44 class, which includes athletes with one arm amputation, or loss of arm function, or no toes.

It all started back in 2013, when Aliaskhab Ramazanov, on the advice of a friend, came to the taekwondo section and began to train seriously.

The motivation and reference point was the film by director Andrey Nikishin and the President of the European Union of Para-taekwondo Alexander Shlychkov “Strong in Spirit”. The documentary, addressed to a wide audience, attempts to show what a person with disabilities can do. “How can you become a fighter without arms? How did disabled athletes of the Russian para-taekwondo team become world and European champions? Why is para-taekwondo a spectacular and tough contact sport? How do para-taekwondo athletes live outside of training halls and competitions.” The heroes of the film themselves talk about this and much more.

Through the fates of the film’s heroes, the authors set the task of conveying to society many moral and social problems that exist in modern Russian society. The title of the film “Strong in Spirit” reflects the truly strong character of these people.
