I got into coaching after having helped my wife train and qualify for Kona in 2024. She had gotten her foundation from 10 years in the sport with another coach. But in 2023 I took over and we managed to make good progress in a year. Motivated by this I would like to help others too.

Why should we train together? Because I care about my athletes. Because your time is precious and you deserve to spend it wisely.
Because you need someone who doesn't just copy/paste’s programmes but who adjusts everything day in-day out. Because coaching is personal. Communication is key.
