Medicine & Sports Medicine

• Studied medicine at Kiel University
• Additional qualification in sports medicine
• Medical experience across a range of specialties
• Many years of bringing medical knowledge together with prevention, movement and training

Medicine helps me understand the body. Movement shows me what people can do with it.

Competitive Swimming & Coaching Experience

• Former competitive swimmer
• Multiple-time German champion and member of the German national swimming team
• A-level coaching licence from the German Swimming Association / German Olympic Sports Confederation
• Experience as a club and regional coach
• Coach and medical support for the German junior and national swimming teams
• Many years of experience in Personal Training and individualized training planning

I know training from different perspectives: as an athlete, a coach and a doctor.

Personal Training, Methods & Technology

• Many years of experience with Power Plate since 2005
• Trained/qualified as a Power Plate Personal Trainer

• POLAR Coach with experience in heart rate-based training
• Many years of experience with cardioscan for personal health checks and training support

For me, methods and technology are tools. What matters is choosing the ones that are right for the person in front of me.

Communication & Public Speaking

• Studies/training in moderating, presenting and journalism in Hamburg
• Experience as a freelance presenter and journalist for radio and TV
• Many years’ experience as a lecturer, speaker and course instructor

To me, professional expertise also means sharing knowledge in a way people can understand and put to use for themselves.

Qualifications are not an end in themselves.

Over the years, I’ve gained a range of training, experience and methods.

What matters to me isn’t how many tools I know, but which ones are right for the person in front of me.
