Online Coaching

Your body is your a point of interaction between software (what you want) and hardware (the world). The better you can control that interface, the more you’ll physically get out of life (and the more you’ll be able to physically put back in).

Strength and fitness is about developing your body to be able to do what you want it to do in life, not about monotonous programs. Everyone wants to be able to do the fun stuff – stick a handstand, move gracefully through a pistol squat or perform a one-hand pull-up – and this online coaching site is all about getting you there with a solid foundation of joint stability, aligned skeletons, efficient exercise technique and balanced body strength.

Moving in ways that reduce wear and tear on joint structures, reduce strain on muscles and avoid the recruitment of inappropriate muscles is key to injury prevention and athletic performance.

My mission in the development of this online coaching site is to offer my best coaching techniques online for anyone in the world to access, at a fraction of the price of coaching in person. My secondary mission is to create an easily accessible online study resource for personal trainers, strength coaches, exercise physiologists and other sports rehabilitation professionals.

More important than working on how much weight you can lift, or how long you can run for, is how much movement variety you have.

Movement in your active life, or sport, is imperfect. You cannot become a better surfer, soccer player, rock-climber, MMA athlete or golfer in a completely controlled, structured gym environment. Although I do teach my athletes the traditional lifts (ie. deadlift, squat, pull-up, military press, etc), I also see their limitations and go beyond traditional strength training to incorporate imperfect, full-range, multi-directional movement, to cater for life’s unpredictable curve-balls.

This is an amazing resource for anyone looking to take not only their surfing to the next level, but to also improve the movement skills and physical attributes that underpin health and wellbeing, and to provide a lifestyle filled with stoke! It starts with inspiration, and Michelle truly inspires and guides you through the progressive strategies to becoming ‘fluid’ in your movement. Its not just about inspiration however, these training programmes and injury prevention methods are underpinned by experience working with some of the worlds top professional surfers, but also solid foundations in performance science. This 9 month programme will guarantee the develop you need to take you to the next level, whatever your goal is.
