Coaching philosophies:              

My favorite saying is, “You only get to experience life once, so don’t waste it”. Every time you do something that is bad for you or refrain from doing something that is good, you waste another small portion of whatever time you have left. I believe that self-improvement is the most important everyday goal that one can have. The more you can improve yourself, the more you will help those you care about to improve, as all of your positive actions, words, and energy will rub off onto them. With this attitude training becomes easy and enjoyable, especially as making the physical improvements to your body inevitably leads to greater and greater mental improvements… and of course a much better quality of life!

Coaching philosophies:              

Training clients is a passion. I get enjoyment and satisfaction from teaching people how to look after their bodies, through correct diet and exercise. One of the key components in exercise is having a variety of training and making it fun. To get results “we” need to be prepared to come to training sessions with the right mindset & be prepared to push the body out of its comfort zone & most importantly be honest and accountable with our nutrition intake.              

“Success is where Preparation and Opportunity meet…”

Coaching philosophies:
 
I have always loved the physical and mental challenge that comes with sport, it teaches us so much. The human body is fascinating in what it can be trained to do. My idea of keeping fit and healthy represents characteristics which I deeply respect – discipline and commitment. But being healthy doesn’t have to be such an intimidating prospect. Simple daily routines can create a healthy body which preserves you for longer – It is a fact. With healthy eating and daily physical exercise you will see how your body adapts to a great functioning machine. (What it was meant for)

Coaching philosophies:  

I have always had a passion for health and fitness and I decided early on that this was something that I wanted to share with other people. I have worked in a broad range of areas within the industry from outdoors, to gyms and studio. Over my 4+ years as a trainer, I have had the privilege the meet and positively influence many different people, and that is the thing about this industry that makes it unique. Training is not about a just the short term goal, but about creating lasting healthy habits that you can continue for the rest of your life, and aiming to achieve that with every single client is my goal

 Coaching philosophies:  

I believe that when a person has a clear perception of what they want to achieve and maintains that strong focus with their approach to training, they will get what they want from it. I think the most enjoyable aspect of coaching is seeing people feel better about themselves.  It is so great when clients come to me with a lack of self belief, and through training I witness them become inspired by their own results and empowered by their further potential. 

Through my interest in the many facets of strength and conditioning, I specialize in the use of Russian kettlebells as an effective training tool that allows for the improvement of many aspects of fitness. I am a Certified Kettlebell Teacher with the International Kettlebell and Fitness Federation (IKFF). 

My 3 Health Tips are:

  • There is no quick fix for improving your health and fitness. We are creatures of habit.  A healthy lifestyle takes time and inspired effort.
  • Nutrition must be catered to the individual’s personal requirements.  Everyone’s bodies are different on the outside as well as the inside. A one size fits all diet is not a reality.
  • Strength training is imperative in any exercise program to improve one’s body composition.

My goal for students is to relax the mind and connect the breath with movement. Focusing on breathing helps to sink deeper into poses and create flexibility. Yoga will be their time to gather strength for their training and to take their mind off everything that needs to happen that day”
