PLAY BETTER, FOR LONGER
Hybrid Athlete Program
10 week group series
A semi-private series focused on building your foundation and awareness for years to come.
Whether you ride, run or {insert your most dreamy form of outdoor play here} this is for the athlete that wants to explore and perform, regardless of how technical the terrain.
Increase trust, decrease injury and play better, for longer.
HYBRID
ATHLETE:
someone who participates in multiple sports or athletic disciplines, rather than specializing in just one. You want to play better, for longer, regardless of the modality. We train, to be ready, to feel boundless.
Why I built this series:​
​
Designed for the multi-disciplinary athlete or, Hybrid Athlete, this 10 week program is built to increase strength and power, decrease risk of injury and provide tools for greater awareness so you can stay sharp in the wild longer, across a range of activities.
While building strength and power, we'll also develop joint stability and usable range of motion – just as important as lifting heavy. If we don't own our greatest range of motion and understand how to create more stability, then it's like trying to fire a cannon from a canoe.
In addition to training strength and power, mobility and stability, we will train skills based patterns that grow your capacity to move in new ways, increase neurological capacity and trust in your athletic ability.
​​
This program is a result of years working with enduro racers, ultra runners, whitewater kayakers, multi-pitch climbers and backcountry adventurers; with years of sharing practices from a world of movement and mindfulness for growing the self-awareness necessary to be our best now and for many years to come.
​
TRAIN, GROW & PLAY AS A COLLECTIVE
My favourite thing about this workshop is working together as a group. When we watch our friends progress, it inspires us to do the same. We will laugh, sweat and break through barriers to become boundless, together.

MORE THAN JUST
"PERSONAL TRAINING"
Beginning with movement and applying the growth to life in a way that is sustainable, and directed towards that which "makes you come alive".
We're growing our awareness and looking at the big picture. It's far more than just personal training.
FAQs:​​
What if I am unable to make one of the sessions? No biggie! Life happens and 10 weeks is a long period of time to not miss a beat. Because we are following a program, you can execute your workouts whenever you want. If you miss a coach-led session, you can do your workout alone, or chat with me about an open gym window to make it up with guidance.
I really enjoy my weekly public class. How is this different? Public class is great and I teach public classes 4 days a week. Here's the thing, they will only get you so far. Any training protocol needs a certain amount of progressive overload and specificity to create lasting growth. As much as I love public class and the group dynamic, if you are interested in progressing as an athlete and/or preventing injury we need to get more specific and overload (strategically) each week.
I'm quite new to strength-training. Will this be too challenging? It's helpful if you have some kind of structure to your workouts or training, even if only outside. The volume that we are doing is quite high at 4 days a week so if you are brand new to training, you will simply be spending the first four weeks adapting to weight training. To get the most out of this program, having already adapted to weight training will help.
4 days a week? How will I have time to play outside? I'm providing a program that works, but it does require quite a bit of volume to build up a solid base for spring/summer. With that said, your outdoor endurance days can combine training and play. Your long aerobic base day means watching the top-end during your activity. Your higher intensity day means adding some intervals to your ride or run. Regardless, it is my intention to treat your endurance days as your days outside doing what you love. Hence the structure, and not rigidity.
Tell me more about the endurance sessions... You will have two days programmed where the focus is increasing your cardiovascular endurance. These days will be structured by specifics, but not rigid. I want you to enjoy your sessions and treat them as a way to play and explore. They will include breathing techniques to more accurately train different "zones" without the constant need to refer to your watch or device. Instead of obsessing about numbers, we're training our awareness and back-checking the data afterwards.
What if I'm focused on only one sport or discipline? Regardless of your sport, strength, power, core and joint stability and having a certain amount of range of motion is necessary. With that said, this program will help any outdoor enthusiast reach their greatest potential.
I want to connect and work as a group. How do you support this? This is what makes a series or workshop playful, the people. Here's how I've committed to bringing you together during and after the program: For both your strength sessions in studio space is provided for us to work together as a group. Tuesday nights being just us and coach-led. What makes this program special is the opportunity to connect not only twice in studio, but twice outside if you so choose to train together with the other movers during your endurance session. As your coach, I will join for some of these outdoor sessions as well so that I see each of you at least once outside during the 10 weeks. We will use WhatsApp to chat and share our ideas for endurance sessions outdoors. I will continue to share what I'm up to outside after our 10 weeks together and hope you do the same.
REAL LIFE RESULTS:
I would never coach anything I haven't had experience with myself, or with an athlete in real time. So that's exactly what I did.
The Program, Tested:
Going into spring, my objective is usually similar to that of my clients.
I want to perform better, for longer and feel boundless while I'm out there.
I must admit, it's a little vague and 'feely'; so let's talk numbers.​

Pre-Requisites:​​​​​
​​​​
As mentioned, this is designed for the outdoor athlete that wants to push a little harder in challenging conditions. Regardless of your sport, if it requires strength and skill I designed this program for you. With that said, you will get the most out of these 10 weeks if you have built a decent foundation already. ​ I offer private coaching and personalized programs for athletes. This is a great way to build your foundation. If you are keen on the group environment I also teach public class twice per week. These options are best if you are new to lifting or recently coming back from time off. ​ It is not my intent to intimidate anyone; but as the nature of outdoor skill-based activity requires exploring one's edge and capacity, I will be doing the same, mindfully, in this program.
