Dear whom this may concern.
The short story is; when I was 16, I didn’t know what I wanted to do as a career, therefore I’ve spent a lot of my time over the past 11 years getting all sorts of PT/sports related qualifications.
From a teen when I was at Charlton Athletic Academy, there was that dream of working at a football club as a S&C coach or in Rehab, but I was never sure if university was for me. At the academy, I would be the only one turning up to S&C sessions to which it ended up being a 1 to 1 session with the coach. It was due to these sessions that made me realise what work goes on behind the scenes at a football club.
Most teens dream of being a player but the women’s game, back then, wasn’t really a career choice or an option. So, I thought well the next best thing is to be part of the club in another way.
It has only been as I’ve grown as person, become a wife and a mother, that I’ve decided to pursue that dream.
I joined the military in hoping to gain experience within sports that way however I got a knee injury and was medically discharged while in basic training. Once I was home after being discharged, I signed up to become a PT. It was after doing the PT qualification that I have gradually done many different types of qualifications based around sport/fitness instructing.
I become qualified in sports massage in 2014 and isn’t a career I have had but I have treated PT clients with sports massage over the years.
Currently I am doing Level 5 in soft tissue therapy which ends around August 2024.
I have approached Oxford Brookes University about doing a top up year for a BSc in Rehabilitation after completing the Level 5.
Thank you for taking the time in reading about me.
11 years working in the fitness industry with lots of CPD over those years. I have worked in different types of gyms from budget gyms to hotel gyms. I have also had experience working in boxing gyms and local football players.
Almost completed Level 5 in soft tissue therapy dues to finish around August September once I have completed my case studies.
Completed FA Level 3 in First Aid in March 2024.
