technique is based on dodging the opponent's blows, grabs and redirecting the
energy of the blow to the side.
Seminars

the day (14:00) visitors will be introduced to an unusual attraction - phygital
aikido. Be the first to master a new discipline!

RUSSIA: VOLGOGRAD TREATS 0+
The

acquainted with treats from the Volgograd region. Fokin's apiary is a family of
hereditary beekeepers from Volgograd. The farm owns a large nomadic apiary and
travels with it all over the south of Russia - from Kuban to Don - in search of
the best honey-bearing plants. Natural pastila is presented by "Strawberry
Village". The producers grow their own strawberries. Pastila is made
without sugar, preservatives and coloring agents. The idea behind the product
is to preserve family values and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
You can try

Russia at any time in the Department Store.
