I am sure when many people look at models and body builders it could be easy to assume they are looking at someone who has it all together. Great self esteem, popular, confident in who they are. Sometimes life's biggest success's however come out of pain. They say that what doesn't break you makes you stronger and that is certainly the case with model Yohann Duval. Bullying is all over the news these days and Yohann is a great reason to truly say things can get better. Growing up in France, Yohann, who is French and Spanish, did not always feel so great about himself. As a boy he was not at ease with his body, and fitness and sports did not come naturally. As a result, Yohann was bullied a lot making for some painful years.Yohann did not stay down for long. Putting his energy into building a better self image he began working out going from 130 pounds to 163 where he is today. Yohann began to feel better about himself and began working as a nude model for a painter for three years when in his early twenties. 'That actually helped me a lot overcoming my body issues. It might sound cliche but modeling for me is kind of a victory over the insecurities and issues i had as a teenager.'13 years ago Yohann moved to Canada and currently resides in Montreal. He studied in Hotel Management but never actually worked in the field here. Yohann worked in retail and accounting for quite a few years and now is in the beauty industry. New to professional modeling, Yohann also loves photography and arts in general.
