About Andru
Coach Andru has dedicated his entire life to sport and fitness, with training ingrained in his daily routine since childhood. Coming from a family of accomplished athletes, his passion for movement runs deep. Coach Andru brings a powerful combination of athletic experience and international expertise in kickboxing and Muay Thai. As a nationally ranked kickboxing athlete in Romania, he competed in several competitions, refining his discipline, resilience, and technical mastery. His passion for martial arts led him to expand his skills through a series of intensive professional development workshops across Europe and Asia.
“Strength is nothing without control. Power is nothing without purpose.”
Andru deepened his knowledge of Muay Thai at its source—in Thailand—training under world-renowned coaches and mastering the traditional art form both technically and culturally. In parallel, he pursued his secondary passion for holistic movement and body control by studying yoga and Pilates in the United Kingdom, adding new dimensions to his understanding of flexibility, mobility, and injury prevention.
Over the years, Coach Andru has transitioned these rich experiences into coaching, working with a diverse range of students—from youth beginners to elite-level athletes. He has coached in some of the world’s most prestigious training facilities, including in Dubai.
Today, Coach Andru is now a proud member of the Shape Up Fitness L.L.C. team in Dubai, where he brings his martial arts expertise, international credentials, and passion for coaching to help clients of all ages and levels unlock their physical potential, master kickboxing and Muay Thai techniques, and build strong, disciplined, and functional bodies.
