Unleash the Champion Within: A Talk with Peter Paltchik

Monday, March 17 | 8:00 PM
Kaplen JCC on the Palisades

Peter Paltchik, Israel’s most decorated judoka and a two-time Olympic medalist (Tokyo 2020, Paris 2024), is a living testament to resilience, mental strength, and leadership. His incredible journey began with a difficult birth that left him with broken bones and culminated in his rise to the pinnacle of judo, overcoming immense personal and professional challenges along the way.

Unranked and recovering from a year of 3 significant injuries before Paris 2024, Peter was also the most threatened athlete in the Israeli delegation. Yet, he defied all odds to claim his second Olympic medal, proving that extraordinary mental toughness and determination can conquer even the greatest adversity.

Peter’s message goes far beyond athletic achievements. His story is a powerful lesson in resilience, leadership, and the strength to push beyond one’s limits. He inspires audiences globally through dynamic speaking engagements, offering insights into how the same principles that led him to Olympic success can be applied to business, personal growth, and life’s toughest challenges.

This Event will be given in English.
