My Story

Before I became a trainer, I was actually overweight and very unhealthy. I had no direction, and my lifestyle was taking a serious toll on my body and mind. With the support of a good mate and a lot of hard work, I turned things around—and that journey led me into the fitness industry in 2005.

I was passionate about helping others transform their lives too. But not long into my career, I found myself battling a series of injuries—mostly from going too hard in rugby, snowboarding, basketball and surfing. That wake-up call made me realise there was much more to true health than just training hard.

Surgeons recommended invasive procedures, but I instinctively knew there had to be a better way. I chose to explore how the body could heal itself—naturally, intelligently, and from the inside out.

The Turning Point

Instead of going under the knife, I committed to learning how to support the body in healing itself. I studied movement systems like yoga, Tai Chi, Qigong, Qian Kun, and I Ching Jing—each offering methods to strengthen tendons, unlock flow, and deepen body awareness.

I trained in massage and dry needling to release pain and stored tension. I also studied strength and conditioning to reinforce the structure and resilience of the joints and core systems. Together, these practices reshaped not only my body—but my entire approach to health and healing.

The Birth of the Tension Free Body System 

From this journey, the Tension Free Body system was born. It’s not theory—it’s been tested, refined and proven through my own body and lived experience.

This method brings together ancient wisdom and modern science to help people release blockages, move better, and return to a natural, tension-free state of health and performance.

Why I Do This Work

Because I’ve lived it—from unhealthy and overweight, to injury and recovery—I can guide others with logic, compassion and awareness. This work is about helping people break free from pain and restriction, reconnect with their body, and move with wisdom, integrity and alignment.
