I have trained with Hollywood Stars, Professional Athletes and World Leading Entrepreneurs. At sixteen I won my first individual national competition and became the youngest (and shortest) athlete to be accepted into Sweden’s Olympic rowing team. At 18 I competed for Sweden at the Sydney 2000 Olympics.

Subsequently, I suffered a tragic career ending injury, which formed the foundation to my new passion in life: helping others to achieve their dreams through fitness and a healthy living. With a lifetime of knowledge in nutrition coupled with my experiences gained from training under an Olympic coach and extensive studying, I can offer an excellent service.

Session description:

Our new training method includes various training methods such as, Olympic lifting, Kettlebells, Boxing, Animal flow, Tabata, Yoga, HIIT intervals, Mobility and Flexibility.

Training with me is always fun, innovative and effective, no sessions resembles the other.

From an early age I played football at a top level. I used to coach other players off-season to improve endurance, speed, power and technique. I reached the professional level when I was 18 and I played as a professional footballer on the french national league for 10 years. In this context, I started to go to the gym as it was part of the training. When I stopped my career as a footballer, I kept going a lot to the gym and I finally became a personal trainer.

I love running. But it wasn’t always that way. I was the one who skived off PE lessons, who came last in the 800 meters on sports day and who, after leaving school, avoided any form of exercise (other than drunk dancing in sweaty nightclubs) for the next 10 years.

Approaching 30 I decided all this needed to change. I wanted to run. I wanted to be the person I saw on TV running down a beach carefree. It looked so easy. I could do that, right? A trip to the gym made me think otherwise. Running was HARD. Everything hurt. Everything felt wrong. I managed just two minutes of running before I had to stop.

I kept going back to the gym. Kept finding it hard and kept hating running. But many miles down the line running stopped being something difficult and started being enjoyable.

I run a lot. I take my running shoes on holiday with me and, yes, I finally got to be that person running barefoot and carefree down a beach. I run a lot of races, set myself goals and train hard to achieve them. I’ve now run quite a few marathons, the fastest in 3 hours 38 minutes, and an ultramarathon. But I do it all because I love running. Because it’s fun.

Session description:

I’m now a qualified personal trainer and running coach. I help people run further, get stronger and achieve their goals. Most importantly, I help people enjoy exercise and feel good about themselves. Whether you’re new to exercise, returning to it after a bit of a break or want to shake up your existing routine – I’d be happy to work with you. There’s a few ways that we can do that, both online or in person in Hampstead, Camden, London.

Qualifications:

Level 3 Personal Trainer

Years experience:

3 years

Pricing:

1 hour session £50
5 sessions £235

I discovered kickboxing about 11 years ago when I was looking for something different to do after work. Since then I haven’t looked back and I’ve been teaching for the last five years. I’ve competed at national level too, and when I got my black belt I couldn’t have been more proud.

The best thing about being an instructor at The Martial Arts Place is that I get to do something I love every day, meeting new people and making new friends all the time. Kickboxing has been great for me and I love having the chance to pass on my skills to the next generation. I teach all levels but I really enjoy working with the three to four-year-olds in the kids class; they’re so cute!

Session description:

Whether you’re completely new to martial arts and kickboxing, a black belt, or simply looking to brush up on your skills, you’ll be inspired to reach your goals in a safe, friendly environment.

You won’t find any intimidating gym machines to navigate; no big egos or attitudes to contend with. Just well-structured kickboxing classes from expert professionals who make sure that the emphasis is placed on learning while having fun.

Years experience:
5 years
