Profile:
I grew up taking swimming lessons and obtained my A, B, and C diplomas. During my studies, I swam once a week. Later, as a personal trainer, I trained for the half and full Ironman and swam in open water in group sessions, where I both received and taught lessons. There is one phenomenon that occurs in every sport: breathing. Through breathing, you can reduce stress as well as create calm, and this forms the basis for efficient movement and synchronization with the water. Currently, I am a personal trainer.
Coaching Style:
My approach is to observe while simultaneously creating a safe environment by acknowledging that it’s okay to find things exciting. Fun is also an important element; laughing together makes the process more enjoyable. I inspire people by showing them that they can always take control through calmness and peace, and that breathing plays a crucial role in this.
