Philosophy:

The entire body is connected and integrated.  Something that may seem trivial, such as the breath, might be the limiting factor in achieving something as meaningful as your new personal best.  Attention to the nuances and finer details of training, and the human body, is of great importance in developing long term , sustainable high levels of performance, growth and remaining pain free.  Confidence in the small things leads to confidence in the big.

About Andrew:

Corporate Wellness: Motivation, empowering, informing and educating or “enter-training” as once described.

Personal Training: Bang for your buck. Andrew’s breadth and depth of knowledge will give you a true understanding of what’s important for you longer term and how to achieve this with day to day actions.

Children: With kids we must develop the athlete before we specialise. Sessions must have adequate variability, athletic movement development and games to challenge, incrementally develop and engage in a supportive, at times competitive, disciplined environment.

Our kids need to learn to win and to lose. We learn from success and failure, the ratio should tip towards success but never shielding kids from the inevitable and valuable lessons to be gained from a loss. Effort is praised, result is applauded but secondary to effort. When we win we celebrate for a time and then acknowledge the work that goes into the result and then get back in and further develop.

On top of the standard athletic abilities Andrew believes creativity and imagination are skills to be valued and developed.

WATER: River, dam, pool, ocean, snow. If it’s H2O, whether in it or on it, Andrew loves it!

My Team: Enthusiastic, driven and well informed – a love for the people and the work they do.
