Dmitry Khodanovich Biography

The second stereotype that I want to destroy: Bayan is only a folk tool for weddings and feasts. After all, it is not for nothing that they say: in a healthy body - a healthy mind. I try to follow this principle. At the age of 19, in my life there was one international music competition. This is the stage that needs to be passed. In the future, the musician must prove his skill on the stage in front of the audience.

I am a professional in music, and in sports, even having won four international tournaments, I am still at an amateur level. Although, of course, you can’t hide a black belt, a broken nose and injury anywhere. But I know that in sports there are more worthy guys who I need to be equal to. I combine concert activities and performances on the tatami in order to feel a harmoniously developed personality.

I want to be a full -fledged person in all respects. The Union of Creativity and Sports gives me a sense of inner harmony. In life in each of us there is a constant struggle of good with evil. And you must always keep balance. Like in the fight! And I am an ordinary person and, sometimes, fall. But the thirst for life, responsibility to parents and teachers, to children and family - this is the incentive that makes us get up and move on.

As Kano Dzigaro said, "he fell seven times, eight - rose." Everything is simple. For one, the main thing is music, for the other-sport, for some-science. For me, a person who has reached skill in any business is already a person. And sport is the easiest way to teach a person to discipline. The athlete must regularly train, monitor nutrition, sleep.

In addition, everyone has obligations in life: a schoolboy or student must adequately study, the task of a man is to remember his loved ones so that all family members are full, dressed, shod. The small hall of the Moscow Conservatory, February 8 photos from the concert. Photo by Boris Belotyrov “I did not have the opportunity to become an Olympic champion” - you have three sons and three daughters.

Do your children prefer music or sports? Masha is still a little baby, the middle daughter, Katya - a candidate for master of sports in rhythmic gymnastics, and the eldest, Polina, was engaged in Taekwondo, but now all in her studies and already in family concerns. The sons Yegor and Savva are future hockey players. The eldest son, Grisha, was a winner of the All-Russian Judo and Jiu-Jitsu, but the passion for football won: now he is a professional football player.

I wish them all their goals and their dreams come true. And I will always be there. But the physical efforts of the performer should not be noticeable to the viewer, only a feeling of lightness and freedom, as well as the special energy of the musician, who conveys the composer’s intention through sound and virtuoso possession. And the struggle ... In the competition you spend energy and lose much more in weight, because the struggle is emotional and physical activity at the same time.

The tasks that I set for myself, I even exceeded something. In addition, I did not have the opportunity to become an Olympic champion. And he has the opportunity to train from childhood under the guidance of highly qualified trainers, and the young man walks past the gym all the time, preferring the computer and PlayStation. And then suddenly, at the age of 20, he realizes that he could train in CSKA and reach sports heights.

But it's too late. There was no such sports palace in my childhood, so I have nothing to regret. Those people who passed their chance regret, and I came to the fight for serious professionals at the age of 25 and laid out on the fullest. Dmitry Khodanovich and medalist of the World Judo Championship Said Gadzhiev. Photo by Boris Okhtiyarov - or not yet to the full? There I had to beat my young guys, my nose was broken, but in two disciplines I won gold medals.

After that, I decided to stop a little in terms of competition, because I was psychologically and emotionally restored for a long time. Therefore, as a fighter, I still do not set high goals, but I’m sure that a little time will pass and they will appear. Today at my concert at the conservatory there were also musicians dear to me, and no less dear representatives of the wrestling fraternity to me, and my coach Sergei Sergeyevich Krutovsky.

I did not need to show false modesty, because when you go your own way, you don’t need to be shy. After all, my life experience helps others to expand the horizons - to someone in sports, to whom in music. Indeed, during training you can get an injury that can interfere with a virtuoso game on the button accordion. I will say more, before the evening concert, it is absolutely wonderful to take a few fights on the tatami in the morning, because the capture element for Kimono develops the flexibility and tenacious of the fingers so much that this positively affects musical equipment.

By the way, I visited the master class of the great fighter Alexander Karelin. Before the struggle, he actively kneaded with the words: "hands and fingers should be very active, sensitive, tenacious, warm -up." All this is necessary for a successful game on any musical instrument.Because, having experience of performances in the public at concerts, I knew how to cope with excitement, how to own myself, my emotions.

There are many guys who are fighting perfectly in training, and in competitions they show only half of what they can because they are burned by excitement. And I always managed to demonstrate almost a percent of my wrestling potential, because the tatami at that time was a stage for me. For example, the wrestler Alexander Karelin is perfectly erudite, perfectly sets out his thoughts, has a wonderful sense of humor.

And there are many such examples. Therefore, the task of parents and coaches to help the young athlete get the maximum baggage of not only sports, but also full -fledged life knowledge. Martial art is not only power, it is primarily intelligence. Every fighter, even the most titled, must remember that the main goal of martial art is to find the harmony of soul and body, harmony with oneself ..

What is such a challenge for you today? And now I am studying on a pedagogical undergraduate, the program "Technology of physical development". It is possible that in the future my hobby will become a profession, I will teach physical education and Jiu-Jitsu. In my years, it is not easy to study, it still requires discipline and dedication. I am preparing intensely for sessions, as for competitions and concerts.

Parent Bayan from Magadan is a button accordion, with whom I have not parted from the age of 14, everywhere with me. The weight of the tool is 20 kg. This is a gift from parents. In the USSR, he was worth a good car. Times have changed, and the ratio is a good car - a good tool has been preserved. To make money for this button accordion, my parents went to the Magadan region.

They understood that for the salary of teachers they could not build the future to the only son. In the north, parents worked for eight years and returned to Ukraine, and in Moscow I entered the classroom to a wonderful teacher Vladimir Mikhailovich Bonakov. Ten years ago, I transported my parents to Moscow to my grandchildren. I am a grateful son and student. And I am also a happy dad.
