Trainer, Assessor, Therapist

Qualified in Sports, Remedial and many Holistic Therapies. I have worked within this industry for 14 years plus teaching for 10 of them, through a number of colleges and private training facilities before opening my own training centre 5 years ago. I still retain a very active client base which I consider to be of great importance to enable me to deliver relevant, practical, hands-on training.
