“Since my son started with Rob at the Athlete Academy, he has become aware of and taken active steps to improve his sleep patterns, fitness outside of the programme and diet, in order to increase his performance - which for a 14 year old boy is a miracle!"

Gary Bennett

“My 13 year old son and his friends have been going to the Athlete Academy now for 8 weeks and really enjoy it. Rob’s coaching and teaching has already got them into a better and healthier lifestyle and the classes are an excellent complement to the sports training they get at school. I can thoroughly recommend it!”
