Experience & Specialisation Areas:
Over the years of training I have always used a common sense approach. Having competed and coached in athletics, golf, tennis and canoeing. I have found that there was never enough emphasis in the conditioning and the application of ones training. This led me into the career I am now in, starting out as a personal trainer and now working towards a US / UK accreditation in strength and conditioning.
Over the last few years I have been working with a vast range of age groups and ability levels, from professional sailors, horse riders, hockey players to top ranked national tennis players. I enjoy guiding clients and training partners the their own goals and lifetime milestones.
