Summary
Highly experienced and knowledgeable in fitness instruction, exercise programming, and athlete development, I possess the skills and understanding required for Certificate IV in Fitness. My background spans personalised program design, group and individual instruction, strength and conditioning, and behaviour change strategies for healthy populations, adolescents, and older adults. I have applied anatomy, physiology, exercise science, and client screening protocols across diverse roles, including work with clinical populations, junior athletes, and professional rugby programs. My experience also includes planning and delivering strength, conditioning, and mobility sessions, fostering client engagement, and using a client-centred approach across varied settings, including gyms, schools, online platforms, and community programs.
