Question 1

Does my child need prior training experience?

Accepted Answer

No. Sessions are adapted to the individual athlete regardless of training background. The starting point is always an accurate picture of where the athlete currently is, not an assumed baseline.

Question 2

Do they need to be at a competitive level?

Accepted Answer

The right fit is determined by the individual rather than the level they currently compete at. What matters most is that they are actively involved in sport or preparing to participate, and are looking for structured physical development to support it.

Question 3

How is the first session different from a regular session?

Accepted Answer

It is still a coaching session — your child will be active and working. The difference is that it also serves as an introduction, allowing me to observe how they move and gather the context needed to shape coaching going forward. It is more relaxed than a formal test or assessment, but just as informative and beneficial.

Question 4

Will my child receive a written programme to follow at home?

Accepted Answer

No. Coaching takes place within sessions. Independent programming may be discussed at a later stage where appropriate, but it is not a starting point and is not included as standard.

Question 5

Do I need to stay during sessions?

Accepted Answer

For athletes under 14, yes — a parent or responsible adult must remain at the facility for the duration of each session. A separate seating area is available upstairs. For athletes aged 14 and above this is not a requirement.

Question 6

Do you need to be a member of the facility, where coaching takes place?

Accepted Answer

No. Sessions are booked directly with me. No membership is required.
