Valerio Barbari is a physical therapist from Rimini, Italy, an author of scientific books in the field, and co-founder of FisioScience, an educational platform and publishing house dedicated to physiotherapy, followed by clinicians across the country. Since 2019, he has been teaching at both university and private institutions, driven by a deep respect for science and a commitment to sharing knowledge through contributions to peer-reviewed journals in rehabilitation, health, and human performance. Guided by a holistic vision of care,  where fitness, training, rehabilitation, physiotherapy, and medicine move together as parts of the same living system, Valerio’s work reflects an integrated approach to human well-being. Following the powerful momentum of RiminiWellness in 2024 and 2025, he will also take part in the 2026 edition, joining his colleagues in offering a scientific and physiotherapy-based contribution designed to serve both specialists and the wider community - those who gather with a shared passion for movement, performance, nutrition, and sport.

My name is Andrea De Beni, and I’m 46 years old… per leg. The math is simple: just multiply 46 by one. That’s usually how I introduce myself on stage - just swap the year - and I do it knowing that self-deprecating humor can be one of the most serious ways to talk about life’s big topics. I’m from Turin, born in 1979, married to Raffaella, and dad to Miriam, Tea, and Emilia Chiara. Professionally, I define myself in the world of communication and training. I was born with a congenital malformation of my right femur. I’ve always walked, run, and jumped on one leg and a prosthetic. The “first version of Andrea” - trapped between shame and embarrassment - gradually gave way, thanks to inclusive sports and personal growth, to the Andrea you see today: an active, positive participant in life; a behavioral and emotional activist; a coach; a trainer; a multimedia communicator; and a motivational speaker.
