Most coaches, PTs, and PE teachers will coach someone who’s struggling with confidence, anxiety, stress, anger, or difficult experiences — even if they never talk about it.

A trauma-informed approach helps you understand people better, not just performance.

It’s not about “going soft” or becoming a therapist.
It’s about learning:
⚽ Why some kids switch off or act out
⚽ How pressure affects different people
⚽ Better ways to build confidence and trust
⚽ How to create a positive environment where people enjoy sport and keep coming back

As coaches, the words we use and the environment we create can stay with someone for years — in a good way or a bad way.

This workshop gives practical, real-world ideas that grassroots coaches or PT’s can use straight away with children, young people, and adults in any sport or exercise setting.

Because good coaching isn’t just about developing better athletes.
It’s about developing healthier, more confident people too.

Feel free to DM for further info.

Every Friday at 1pm we hold a free Boxing Class for anybody affected by grief.

The class will give you the chance to hit the bags and get your body moving.

It’s a non contact session with space during the session and at the end to talk and listen to others who are also living with bereavement.

There is no pressure to tell your story, just a chance to be amongst other people who understand.

Everyone is welcome.

Really pleased to be part of the writing team of a published academic article about Boxing therapy.

Massive thanks to for all the work he’s put in to this.

Hopefully the first of many as I try and build the academic evidence to support Boxing Therapy as a recognised approach. I know it works just need to demonstrate why and how.

During the summer holidays I will have increased availability for boxing based mentoring sessions for young people who would normally be in school during the week.

I’ve found boxing to be a powerful tool to support youngsters who are struggling with all kinds of issues.

I use boxing training as a framework to build trust, self-esteem, and emotional awareness, personal boundaries and resilience.

These sessions are tailored to each young person and can help them navigate challenges at school, home, or in the wider world.

I was buzzing on Wednesday to lead a workshop on coaching football with a trauma informed approach.

The feedback was great with plenty of the lads asking for further input and informations. Big shout out to Rufforth United JFC leading the way for grass roots clubs in York.

This workshop would enable any coach to;

Understand what trauma is.

Learn how trauma can affect people, physically, psychologically, emotionally and behaviourally.

Then how to apply the principles of a trauma informed approach in to their training sessions, match days and culture of the club to support anybody who lives with the affects of a traumatic experience, whatever that could be.

If any coach or club member is interested in a workshop for them please drop me a DM.
