Ancient Strength and Queer Inclusive Strongman Training

Let’s face it, you clicked on my profile pic because you like the idea of training with THE best looking coach around :D in all seriousness though, I can guarantee you won’t find another individual that brings such a heavy dose of sparkle to training sessions.

Along with a bucket load of giggles you’ll feel more confident, empowered and absolutely delicious.

Injury Rehab and Ancient Strength – Meels, Clubs, Shields

I help clients with injury (p)rehab through fascia work and movement, with the aim of improving posture, mobility and stability. With this in mind, I train in ancient strength tools like clubs, meels and shields.

All the unusual wooden toys at the Temple. The kinds of things that make you look like you’ve been in an accident at B&Q if you get it wrong :-) . They’re very technical but so much fun and they challenge your body and movement precision in such a different way to usual strength tools. I offer workshops, courses and 121 on these.

I love helping clients develop their resilience along with strength and conditioning…All with a big smile!

Bulgarian Bags

I’m passionate about yoga, attending regular classes and utilising poses and flows to help clients. I really enjoy Bulgarian bags too. These are the weird leather croissants you see at the gym. Like clubs, meels and shields they challenge you in various planes of motion so very beneficial for strength and movement.

A lot of these things probably just sound like random words strung together at the moment. You need to come in and see them! I run bag club on Friday mornings at 9, a great chance to have a go.

Pride in Strength

I’m bisexual and I run the queer strongman workshops and competitions at the gym! Pride in Strength and Queerstrong. Both are growing and there’s a wonderful, thriving community here at the gym! Workshops are every 4-6 weeks. The comps are annually. Absolutely magical.

From 121 to group training, sessions with me are not only juicier than a tin of beans, they will get you moving sleek and strong like a hench lizard!
