MEET THE TEAM
KIT
My love of activity and competition developed through the sport of Rugby Union and fed a desire to learn as much as possible about health and fitness, resulting in becoming a level 3 Personal Trainer and Nutrition Advisor.
I played Rugby Union from the age of 6, captained Essex at age 13, got scouted by Saracens for their academy at 15 and in the same year earned my spot in the London Divisional team, winning my first International cap for England at age 16. Following this, I played Rugby Union in the BUCS Premiership for Northumbria University.
Rugby training gave me a taste of Strength and Conditioning, training at some of the best sites in the UK with some of the leading British S&C coaches. I continue to advance my learning of fitness programming having been on both the receiving and developing sides. As well as Rugby Union, I have played Rugby League nationally and was also selected for the Great Britain Judo talent pool for potential athletes for Olympic representation in Rio 2016. I am also a keen skier and have studied Muay-Thai for the past 9 years, recently training in Phuket, Thailand.
Training, be it for myself or for my clients, is something I thoroughly enjoy. Nothing gives me greater satisfaction than when I help my clients reach their goals and achieve their desired results.
