Nasos is a Tai Chi and Chi Kung Practitioner, as well as a Personal Trainer and Juice Therapist. He completed his juice therapy academy at the Jason Vale, Juice Master HQ . In his late teens he was a promising Basketball athlete, however he was devastated when injury ended his career. He lost sight of his true self and to fill the void, spent many years unhealthy and suffering from continuous chest problems, from smoking and drinking. In his 30's he decided to take control of his health, quit smoking and retrain in his passion of Tai Chi, Chi Kung, Physical Fitness and Healthy Living.
Nasos has the understanding of experiencing the difficulties of quitting addictions and shares a great wealth of knowledge in practical ways to help quit addiction when other techniques have failed. Nasos believes that as well as a healthy attitude to food and exercise, continual personal development and a thirst for knowledge has helped him to rebuild his future and go back to his true self... He is living proof that this is something that we can all achieve no matter the situation we may be in.
