Pregnancy and Postpartum Athleticism Coach
I worked as a Mental Health Nurse for 10 years before starting my Coaching career. I have always loved physical activity. I played competitive county football for Dublin at 17 before needing surgery for an injury when I began training as a nurse. Due to long hours working and studying, I couldn't play football anymore. I discovered strength and conditioning which lead me to CrossFit and I became obsessed. I did the coaching internship in Rónin CrossFit and left nursing. As a coach, I am passionate about helping our members pursue mental and physical wellbeing. Since expanding my education basis into pregnancy and postnatal coaching, as well as having my little girl, it is so important to me to provide good quality, high standard coaching which allows women to feel like themselves again during their pregnancy and after birth. Athleticism does not end once motherhood begins!
I never considered changing career - I didn't think I was 'good enough' to be a coach. The community at Rónin CrossFit supported me through the transition. I haven't looked back since. I also feel extremely privileged to have had access to good information around training during and after pregnancy and I want other women to have that experience too!
I want to instill the confidence in others that the community in Rónin CrossFit instilled in me. Coming to a new gym can be really scary; at Rónin, it doesn't have to be!
