I have been in the fitness world for over 20 years, working with all kinds of people from professional athletes and marathon runners to complete beginners. I officially qualified as a personal trainer in 2009, but I have been helping people move better, feel stronger, and perform at their best long before that.

At First Place Coaching, I bring that same experience and attention to detail online. Whether your goal is weight loss, muscle gain, better movement, or improving athletic performance, I will create a programme that fits your lifestyle and keeps you accountable wherever you are in the world.

Over the years, I have worked with:

People looking to lose weight and keep it off

Professional athletes aiming to improve performance

Older clients focusing on balance, strength and mobility

Children and teenagers developing better movement and confidence

Runners preparing for marathons and endurance events

During lockdown, I took on a few extra qualifications, mainly to stay sharp and keep learning, and it completely changed how I approach online coaching. Now, I combine practical experience with modern tools and methods to get results that actually last.

Football has always been a big part of my life. I played at a semi-professional level when I was younger and have spent the last seven years coaching children’s football, which has taught me a lot about motivation, mindset and discipline.

First Place Coaching is all about helping you perform at your best both physically and mentally. No shortcuts, no gimmicks. Just clear guidance, proper training, and support that keeps you moving forward.ears personal training experience we utilise proven strategies to empower you on your journey to success.
