“ Having someone believe in you whether it is a coach or a community , the support will keep you motivated on the days you struggle to motivate yourself .”
I offer training programs , coaching and physiotherapy packages to enhance cardiorespiratory , core stability , performance and biomechanics for SUP . As well as getting you physically ready for expeditions or racing , I also help you with tactics , technical knowledge and sports psychology for your chosen environment . I coach virtually via online clinics within the home or the paddler ’ s chosen sporting environment . This can be done reflectively through video analysis or during live sessions . Each person is given a program with clear goals to focus their training and the required tuition or mentoring needed to help them achieve their personal best or recover them from injury and overload . The coaching journey can be delivered as a one-off or over several months . I also offer online live HIT workouts , Pilates , yoga and Tai Chi specific to the paddler ’ s needs . Group sessions : £ 5- £ 15 . Individual sessions : £ 45 per hour , including video analysis .
