Personal message
My dad taught me to play Go when I was six and a half. At first I studied mostly at home, but I also used to attend local Go club once per week.
At various points from 2009-2013, I trained Go in South Korea at schools: King’s Baduk Dojang, Yang Jae-Ho Baduk Dojang, and Choong-Am Baduk Dojang. Altogether, I spent 2 years and 5 months there.
In years 2015-2016 I trained Go in China at Ge Yuhong Weiqi Daochang. Altogether, I spent 8 months there.
Recently I'm more focused on trying to make Go more popular in non-Asian countries.
I wrote nine go books for beginners (available in five languages: English, Polish, Russian, Ukrainian, Spanish). You can buy them at my shop.
I'm married since 2018. |
