STUDENT STORIES

More Than
Techniques.

These aren't just testimonials. They're stories from sauna masters who challenged themselves, grew through honest feedback, and discovered a deeper understanding of Aufguss through my coaching.

★★★★★

"Jiří didn't just teach me how to wave a towel. He taught me how to think like an Aufguss master. Instead of simply giving answers, he challenged me to understand the logic behind every technique. That mindset completely changed the way I perform, create experiences and continue learning today."

★★★★★

"Jiří has an incredible eye for detail. Often a single correction completely changed the quality of my towel technique. What makes his coaching special is that he never just tells you what to do: he explains why it works. That made every improvement feel natural and easy to apply."

Marton Decsi

Competition Sauna Master

★★★★★

"Jiří has a rare ability to break down even the most difficult techniques into simple, understandable steps. His patience, attention to detail and honest feedback helped me gain confidence much faster. You always leave his training with new skills: and a better understanding of your own performance."

MY COACHING PHILOSOPHY

I Don't Teach
People To Be Me.

 

Great Aufguss isn't created by copying techniques. It's about understanding heat, reading people, expressing emotion and creating experiences your guests will remember long after they leave the sauna.

Every student arrives with different strengths, different challenges and different ambitions. That's why I don't follow a fixed formula. Every coaching session is adapted to the individual standing in front of me, not the other way around.

My goal has never been to create copies of myself. My goal is to help you understand the principles behind great Aufguss, discover your own style and become the kind of sauna master your guests will never forget.
