After a successful six years as a Royal Marines Commando based at 42 Commando in Plymouth. Travelling the globe testing myself both physically and mentally and participating in several operational tours of duty, I decided it was time for a new challenge! I relocated and retrained as Personal Trainer here in Swansea (Originally I am from Sunderland) I then completed a Masters degree in UWIC. This career change has allowed me to meet some interesting people helping them reach their personal health and fitness goals. I have also freelanced for several Health and Fitness companies both writing qualifications and teaching on various courses. My current hobbies include fitness, Brazilian ju jitsu, karate and riding my motorcycle.QualificationsMSc Coaching ScienceLevel 3 Personal TrainerLevel 3 Exercise Referral InstructorUKSCA certified Weightlifting for Sport CoachLevel 3 Nutrition and Weight Management AdvisorLevel 2 Gym InstructorLevel 2 Circuit InstructorNordic Walking InstructorFirst aid Emergency ResponderMember of REPs

Like many youngsters I very much enjoyed sports and physical activity. I started gymnastics at a very young age and continued with it for many years competing up to national level. I then moved into martial arts, again to a competitive level in both Wado Ryu karate and kickboxing. I then moved into what people now know as ‘extreme sports’ (I hate that phrase) mainly skateboarding, eventually getting sponsored and competing throughout the country. I have an interest in the paleo movement, both through diet and also physical activities, I believe we don’t need to overcomplicate the art of fitness, instead keep it simple, varied and most of all FUN.
Functional fitness is my new hobby and lifestyle which allows me to keep doing what I’ve always done.
