BOOTH Training | Individual Coaching Plans
Since 2017, I’ve been working with paddlers of all ages and abilities through BOOTH Training, helping athletes progress from their first races right through to World Championship podiums. BOOTH Training was created to give paddlers access to high-level, professional coaching that is practical, individualised, and built around real life.
I believe no two athletes are the same. Your background, goals, strengths, weaknesses, schedule, and lifestyle all matter. That’s why every individual plan is customised specifically for you, so your training fits around your life, not the other way around.
With over 20 years of training and racing experience across SUP, ocean ski, kayaking, and surf lifesaving, I bring both athlete and coach perspectives into every program. I’ve competed at the highest level, won multiple World, European, and Australian SUP titles, and represented my country across four different paddle sports. More importantly, I’ve spent the last eight years coaching athletes internationally to become stronger, faster, more consistent, and more confident competitors.
Your individual plan is built using proven training principles I’ve developed through years of elite competition and coaching. Programs focus on:
• Building real aerobic and paddling engine
• Developing speed, strength, and race-specific power
• Improving technique and efficiency
• Reducing injury risk through smart load management
• Long-term progression, not short-term fixes
You’ll receive a structured, easy-to-follow program with clear sessions, progressions, and purpose behind every workout. I work closely with you to adjust training as life, work, travel, and racing schedules change.
For those newer to the sport or looking for a simpler entry point, BOOTH Training also offers foundational plans for beginner and intermediate paddlers. These provide structured guidance, build fitness, and create a pathway into more advanced training.
If you want to become a fitter, stronger, faster, and more confident paddler, I’d love to help you get there.
