About Me.
In 2002, with the support of my family I changed career to my dream job: fitness. I found my vocation. I've been privileged to work with the armed forces, fire brigade, in virtually every sport & with amazing professionals as well as amateurs since then.
All the time balancing my own martial art, climbing and triathlon activities with teaching yoga. Whatever is going on in my life I feel better after yoga, I hope my clients do too.
In the corporate world I have taught yoga, advised on nutrition and treated with sports massage. Ebay, Motors, Oxford University, publishing companies, drug companies, the Multiple Sclerosis Society and many more.
Frustrated that I couldn't help injured athletes I added sports massage to my qualifications in 2017 and the journey to better understand the nervous system, skeletal system, fascia and treatments of both Eastern and Western philosophies ensued.
I love my job and want to learn more and help more people. Whether it is a new neck pain or old back pain, I can't wait to help relieve it.
Some of my clients have worked with me for over 15years, despite moving counties 3 times. My new gym is my haven, designed by me. I hope you enjoy it too.
