Lukáš Klimpera has come a long way on his journey towards a healthy stride. He started his career as a programmer, but after years of intense work he burned out. That’s why he decided to devote himself to a field that has always enticed him.
Lukáš’s greatest inspiration was the teaching of his yoga Master, Vishwaguru Paramhans Svámí Mahéšvaránanda, at whose prompting he studied physiotherapy at Charles University, where he met Clara Lewitová. This prominent Czech physiotherapist inspired Lukáš with her vision of healthy and natural shoes.
After graduation, Lukáš worked at the LOGO clinic in Brno under the supervision of head physician Kateřina Moráňová. And it was here that he verified Clara Lewitová’s ideas in practice. His clients didn’t just need to exercise. After exercise they needed to put on shoes that don’t constrict them. And because there was still no brand of healthy and ethical shoes on the Czech market, he decided to create his own.
That’s how Ahinsa shoes were created. Handmade vegan shoes that respect the shape of your foot. During the first years they gained customers in the Czech Republic and abroad; today people throughout the world are wearing them. Ahinsa shoes are and will remain comfortable and ethical shoes that will walk millions of steps with you.
