Client testimonials

  • Transform your running: 8 week program client

    “From my initial consultation, I was struck by Gordons incredible knowledge & love of running. Having ran for many years, my runs were getting harder & results getting poorer. I wanted to run more efficiently & improve my form, avoid injury (which I was getting more of) & put the joy back into running as it had become a bit of a chore. 

    The majority of my training plan was done virtually - I didn’t feel tied down by rigid training schedules. He taught me early on that ‘less is more’ and that I had likely been over training. By targeting my training & runs, I ended up running less but achieving better results. 

    At the end of the program, I entered a 10k and not only finished 2 minutes ahead of my predicted time but crossed the finish line feeling strong and buzzing!”

    “I was starting to get sore knees and injured a lot when I was running and I couldn’t work out why. I started working with Gordon and he sorted out my running form fairly quickly and gave me several tips on how to stay in form during a run – simple tweaks but meant I was finding a rhythm with my runs that made them feel easier. Gordon’s immediate feedback was amazing after my runs – we connected through Strava and he read my stats and got straight back to me – I realised I hadn’t been getting the most out of my stats either. 

    I would thoroughly recommend Gordon to anyone – whether it is someone new to running or someone just wanting to improve their running and find a love for running again that has maybe been lost. His knowledge and commitment was motivating and I am so happy with the results.”

    “My breathwork coaching with Gordon has been transformational. I knew my habit of mouth breathing was impacting my energy level and sleep patterns. His expert knowledge of nasal breathing and how to maximise it’s benefits with specific excercises was so helpful and easy to follow. Life changing!”

  • Breathwork client

    “I’ve been working with Gordon as I wanted to try breathwork. The impact has been incredible, in ways I didn’t expect.

    The sessions have been a great tool for managing stress and anxiety - especially at work for me as a firefighter. His approach goes beyond the mechanics - emphasising connecting with your breathe in a way that calms your nervous system.

    Whether its a hectic day or moments of overwhelming pressure, I’ve learned to use these techniques to help me centre myself. His patience and ability to explain things clearly make the process seem intuitive, even for someone like me who was completely new to breathwork.”
