Originally from Brazil, Helmut moved to Canada in the early 2000s, drawn by the majestic Rocky Mountains, which he now calls home. His climbing journey began in the early 1990s, and he quickly ascended to the ranks of Brazil’s climbing elite, contributing to the sport’s development for over a decade. His travels to various climbing destinations have broadened his perspective on the sport and its intersection with his clinical practice.

Helmut’s academic background includes a Bachelor of Physical Education from University Gama Filho (1998) and a Specialization in Sports Performance Training from UNOPAR (2000). This combination of expertise enabled him to pioneer performance methodologies for climbing in Brazil during the late 1990s.

Currently, Helmut is focused on exploring the intersection of sports performance and rehabilitation, with an emphasis on promoting healthy longevity for athletes and the general community. His enthusiasm extends to collaborating on and designing new research projects.

Outside of work, Helmut enjoys climbing both indoors and outdoors, hiking, cross-country skiing, and pursuing his long-standing passion for photography in the mountains.
