About Me
My coaching ethos is to embrace variety and enjoy what you do
This is me: Alison Smith, who, after several years in the corporate world finally took the plunge in 2012 and qualified as a fitness professional, Triathlon and strength and conditioning coach, setting up my own multisport business.
​
After five years in the UK coaching runners and triathletes, as well as working with personal training clients, myself and my business moved to Australia in 2018 where I strengthened my swimming coaching skills, learnt a different perspective to endurance coaching and additonally worked with athletes remotely as a correspondance coach.
​
There are 4 pillars to my coaching philosophy, which I firmly believe in:
​
-
Endurance
-
Strength
-
Rest & recovery
-
Fuel
Each one factors heavily in what I do and how I commumicate with clients and athletes.
