Acerca de mí
Health and fitness features prominently in my life. I exercise regularly and compete in local and regional trail running events when possible. I enjoy cooking nutritious recipes that support optimised health and performance. As one of two nutritionists for the England National Football Team during the 2009/10 season in preparation for the World Cup in South Africa, I designed health and wellness student programmes specific to their sporting and academic needs.

Having been a guest speaker at the National Schools Independent Sports Conference, (ISFA) on the topic of Sports Nutrition for Football. I enjoy presenting to groups, schools and clubs on the topic of nutrition for peak performance and personal wellbeing.I also find it hugely rewarding presenting at school assemblies and PSHE sessions on this topic.

I enjoy trekking and have participated in the 15 Peak Challenge, Snowdonia, Wales. I have trekked to Mount Everest Base Camp raising considerable funds for the Motor Neuron Disease Society, a charity very dear to me. Having also trekked the Andes in South America, I have led groups of students on residential trips to Snowdonia as part of the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme as well as many overseas sporting tours throughout Europe.

I enjoy strength and conditioning training, cold water thermogenesis and intermittent fasting as a means to enhance health and potentiate longevity. Overseas travel has always been a feature of my life; such as visiting the mountainous region of Vietnam or the highlands of Bolivia.

I have a nine year-old daughter and a six-year-old son and enjoy spending quality time with them. My partner and I actively engage in interesting activities and experiences in order to widen our personal horizons and promote positive learning.

I am an avid podcast listener and enjoy the varied and diverse nature this style of platform provides. Music is a passion, notably live performances.

My three main areas of expertise (not necessarily in this order):

- Chess: I teach chess to beginners and intermediate players up to ELO 1800 or ECF 1700, working on the tactical and strategic aspects of openings, middle games and endgames.. "chess is life in miniature"!

- Fitness / Running / Triathlon: I coach people who want to get fitter and generally incorporate any endurance activity into a health(ier) lifestyle. I am a dedicated coach who has competed in several marathons and Ironman races (also qualified for the Ironman World Championship). I focus on nutrition, stress and sleep as well for a holistic approach.

- Languages: I specialize in tutoring Italian and Spanish; my style is to keep students challenged and motivated through simple classes and practical exercises (pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary).. I'm a demanding teacher but will guide you in a fun and interactive way.

Please contact me if you have any interest in spending more time and energy in any of these 3 areas, and don't forget that "Mens Sana in Corpore Sano" is a good approach to look after yourself :)

This class is dedicated to all those who wish to calm the nervous system and work on rooting themselves in the present moment. Connecting with the body and its language. A combination of yoga and somatic techniques that help us understand how our body works and its relationship with the mind.

For all levels, because we're not looking for virtuosity in complicated positions, but to refine our perception, communication and understanding of our ‘total self’.

We'll use asanas and pranayama, as well as micromovements and meditation. Everyone is welcome!

A perfect class if you're going through a period of stress or a lot of mental activity or worry, if you lead a very sedentary life, or simply if you want to relax and move your body.

The purpose of those classes is education, not on the superficial level of mimicking form, but on a profoundly deep level of understanding the full use of the body as an integral whole to maximize full function of each individual's unique movement potential.

The aim is toward maximum physicality in function and overall health as well as a state of relaxation and a stimulation of the body's energy centres and meridians that is revitalising and
healing.

The benefits of yoga also include gaining flexibility and working on breathing skills concentration, balance, endurance, muscular and vital strength, as well as strengthening the nervous system and immune system.

The content and dynamics of the practices will be adapted to your experience, needs, age, and specific circumstances, seeking to gain the greatest possible benefit.

I have experience working with and teaching beginners and people with little experience of physical work as well as children in the field of dance, acting movement, and yoga.
