I am a qualified Reconnective Healing Practitioner, Neuromuscular Therapist and Tai Chi and Biokinetics teacher. I also have an ITEC Therapeutic Massage, Anatomy and Physiology diploma. I have been practicing Tai Chi for over twelve years and have been a therapist for the last six years.

My original educational background was rather different. I studied Engineering at Oxford and Imperial College, gaining an MA and MSc respectively and have also done an MBA at City University.

Until recently, I was a very keen rower and worked as a quantitative analyst for various banks in the City over a period of 15 years.

As a rower, I competed in the Boat Race as well as representing Great Britain at the World Rowing Championships five times between 1991 and 1996. This experience has given me great insight into the world of top class sport, the pressures of training, the problems in recovering from injury, illness etc.

My experience as an office worker means I know very well what it is like to stare at a computer all day and how it can effect your health and posture. I am also very familiar with the stresses and strains of office work.

At home, my wife and I try, usually in vain, to keep up with our nine year old twins.
