Coach Sarah
My name is coach Sarah, throughout school I was always involved in anything sport and always in the PE department. After leaving school, I completed an HND in Fitness, Health & Exercise; followed by a Sports Degree at the University of Stirling - Scotland’s University of Sport. I then did a Postgraduate qualification in Education to combine my passion for sport with teaching.
Alongside my university studies, I worked part-time in a gym and completed my Level 3 personal training which I then used to change peoples lives. I also taught horse riding 3 days a week.
Horse riding, my main sport, has played a huge role in shaping my values, instilling resilience, discipline and a strong work ethic.
I discovered a love for running over the past five years, I completed a marathon three years ago and keep as fit as I can.
Now I am a PE teacher and have been for the past 6 years. I’m a strong believer that sport is the best medium for developing essential life skills - such as effective decision-making, communication, resilience, determination and teamwork - that extend far beyond the playing field…
