Louise is 24 and has an extensive training background, when discussing goals we thought it best to try and work on her specific needs, and isolate one aspect in detail. She is currently ranked 35th in the World, but is aiming to improve that this year.

I first met James at a South West Gymnastic conference and thought he was superb then, and still do! James' ability to adapt to different sports and levels is excellent, and he is superb at getting his message across to different ages of gymnasts. He did a workshop at our club for our competitive gymnasts and it was superb, His work was of great value to a wide range of ages and levels, with a tremendous emphasis on posture and injury prevention. We have been able to put his training methods into practice and are seeing an improvement in the all round strength and fitness of our gymnasts.
