From a young age I have always loved sport and PE (athletics especially).  I’ve competed at a high level and now coach Hurdles and Sprints to a group of talented teenagers at Basildon AC.

I believe that everyone should have the opportunity to live healthily and that a good inclusive primary physical education is the key ingredient.  I have combined teaching in primary education with coaching for the past 20 years I also own a reformer Pilates studio where I coach.

After teaching in primary education for over 20 years, I understand that teachers have many roles, jobs and subjects to juggle. I know that PE is not always top of the agenda, however, it can be such a fun subject and offers many benefits other than the obvious physical ones.  As a primary specialist I will work with you, sharing the skills and knowledge I have developed through first-hand experiences with primary aged children. I have experience in all areas of PE and also teach on initial teacher training program.
