I also have a Masters Degree in Osteopathy, a ‘Master Trainer’ Diploma in Personal Training, and a plethora of other miscellaneous qualifications. I have been working in this industry as a movement teacher since 2010, and received my Osteopathy qualification in 2015.

I have a deep practice background, ranging across various physical arts and practices; Including weightlifting, grappling/wrestling/combat sports, circus arts, dance, meditation, internal martial arts & neigong/qigong, strongman training and yoga.

I have dedicated many years to pedagogy and education for physical literacy working from both athletic performance to post-surgical rehabilitation ends of the spectrum.

I have several small creative and business projects I am a part of. You can find more about this under ‘Projects’ in the menu.

In my movement and rehabilitation work, generally speaking, my aim is to facilitate the development of cognitive flexibility, adaptive movement and resilient bodily structures: Developing a pain free body and a stress resilient mind.
