Restoring Back Health: Moh’s journey

While Moh was visiting Vancouver for a school exchange and he found Restore Human! He was intrigued by the “different” studio and the “happy” staff! He’s tired of being tired and decides to dive into training again! He commits to training 3-6 times a week and begins to rebuild his physicality piece by piece.
