Before coming to join the team at Six, I spent 25 years working in the health and fitness industry. Most recently, I was the lead Strength & Conditioning (S&C) Coach and Rehab Therapist for one of the LTA’s youth tennis performance academies in Bournemouth.

This involved working closely with talented young athletes up to international standard, guiding them through the entire high-performance spectrum, from injury prevention strategies right through to elite performance enhancement. Sessions with these athletes would involve working on a range of components, including screening & analysing their biomechanics of movement, strength, flexibility, power, speed, agility & deceleration. For adolescents, tracking their growth rate & maturation status also became an invaluable tool for managing their busy training diaries and avoiding overload at key times in their development.

I also worked with Dorset Cricket EPP (Elite Player Programme), delivering S&C practically to players, but also S&C education to coaches. Alongside this, I have worked with other local physio clinics working in S&C, rehabilitation therapy & sports massage roles. Additionally, I have been a guest speaker at a national tennis conference, presenting to delegates on ‘functional rehabilitation for athletes’.

My skill set is broad and I believe this enables me to provide a bespoke and considered service to each individual I work with.
