About

My back going into spasm, prescribed strong painkillers and signed off work when I was 26 inspired me to take action on my own health and fitness. While the painkillers did their job, I was afraid to move without my going into spasm again when they wore off.

While I was off, I saw an article in a magazine about the ballot for the 1998 London Marathon being open and despite not having done much running, I decided to enter and got in first time!

Crossing the finish line changed my life! I felt a sense of accomplishment I’d never felt before and came away with a desire to help others do amazing things for themselves and feel the same way I felt. If I can do it, anyone can! I later quit my job as a Pizza Chef and trained to become a Personal Trainer.

Despite going on to become fitter than I’d ever been, I continued to get spasms in my back. I’d tried stretching, strength training, massage and while they helped for a bit, they didn’t solve my problem. I discovered movement training, how the body actually moves, managed to solve my back problem and want to help more people solve their chronic aches and pains.
