Jack has 18 years experience as a full-time triathlon coach. As a major instigator and long-term head coach of the Leeds Triathlon Centre he was instrumental in the successes of Alistair and Jonny Brownlee, Vicky Holland, Non Stanford and many other elite athletes. Jack has twice been a winner of the prestigious Mussabini medal for services to British sport and is a member of the Sports Coach UK Hall of Fame. In 2018 he left his position at the Leeds Triathlon Centre to set up The Sports Ashram and pursue new challenges.

The Sports Ashram are based in Leeds in northern England and do the majority of our work from there but also host training camps, days and sessions across the UK and abroad. Our aim is to provide high quality triathlon coaching using yoga.

We provide individual coaching for professional and age-group triathletes, coach mentoring, swim technique clinics and we have regular running and yoga sessions in Leeds.

Both Jack and his partner Kirsten are experienced yoga students and believe that everything you learn on your mat can be of use in your everyday life. Together they have developed their own style of yoga merging Jack's extensive triathlon experience with Kirsten's yoga knowledge and physiotherapy background. Practising yoga in this way can play a really positive role in an athlete's physical and mental health.
