About Coaching & Community Leadership
Fitness is a lot more sustainable when you have a 'jatre' (festival) of people cheering you on. I don’t just write training plans; I help you build the habit by connecting you with a supportive group, whether it’s for a weekend run at Cubbon Park or a local strength session in HSR Layout.
It is not just about hitting personal bests; it is about the people you hit them with. Through initiatives like 'Odona Banni' and 'Habit Run', I have focused on removing the barriers—whether that is intimidation or just not knowing where to start—that keep people from getting active. My coaching approach blends data-driven training with real, human connection. If we are working on race prep, we look at your metrics, but we also talk about how to manage the niggles and mental fatigue. For our group strength sessions, we focus on functional movements that translate to everyday life, ensuring you are injury-free and consistent. You will find me leading sessions in places like HSR BDA Complex or Cubbon Park, where the goal is always to keep showing up, even on the days it feels tough. I am a firm believer in progress over perfection, and I am here to help you build a routine that actually lasts. If you want to know how we structure these, or which group session fits your schedule, just send a message.
