About me

My story

I have a life time of experience of various sports including rock climbing, running, athletics, weight lifting, MMA and yoga. I also understand how intrinsically linked your physical wellbeing is to your mental health. An athlete’s entire view of themselves can change once injured and no longer being able to perform how they once did. I have been through it myself and understand the pitfalls which will stop you regaining the performance you desire. After successfully rehabilitating myself I am confident and passionate about helping you get back to being your best.
