WHY TRAIN WITH ME

It's a partnership between athlete & coach where the athlete is central to process.

​

I know that is one serious looking face, right!

Simply put I understand athletes because I am an athlete. I'm also a UKA licensed athletics coach. I instill an open policy on knowledge sharing to facilitate growth and development of both athletes and coaches, when you learn together you find a common ground and build energy and a connection. When the common ground is found then you communicate better. If we communicate better then the possibilities are limitless. As coaches our best tools are our words.

​

As a teenager I was coached by the then national high jump coach Mike Dolby. Then in my early 20's I dropped out of athletics for personal reasons. After nearly 20 years and after a small blip of ill health in 2016 I decided to reconnected with athletics. I set a very clear and simple goal for myself, to have the biggest positive impact on athletics and coaching as I could. 

​

Since that day I now coach at two clubs in Dorset, Mentor the next generation of young coaches in schools as part of Dorset Leadership Academy delivery team, work with PE teachers in schools and collaborate with senior national coaches to develop local talent and bring new ideas to a wider audience. Why do I do this, I love the process, I love coaching and meeting new like minded people, I love the outcomes and results for the athlete and I love athletics.
