Level 1 Strength and Conditioning Coach

 

Brett is passionate about sport.  He describes himself as a sports fanatic and has lost many hours of sleep watching sport from all around the world.  This passion for sport is what got Brett into Remedial Massage and Myotherapy.  Previously an electrician, he left his job to pursue a career treating athletes and helping them maintain and perform at their best. 

Brett has treated athletes competing in a range of sports from weekend warriors to professional and elite athletes.  He volunteered at The Queensland Tennis Centre from 2014 to 2016, working mainly with their tennis academy, treating the tennis stars of the future.  He has also worked with players ranked within the top 100 and competing on the senior circuit.

Since 2018 Brett has been working with AFL umpires from grassroots footy at the QAFL level, state level umpires in the NEAFL and VFL and all the way up to AFL level umpires.  Brett is currently the Queensland AFL Umpire Lead Trainer looking after the Queensland based AFL, AFLW and VFL umpires. In 2020 with the majority of the AFL season playing out in Queensland, Brett worked at 64 AFL games including the Grand Final.

Brett worked as a Course Coach teaching massage and myotherapy at Q Academy Massage College from 2016 to 2021.

In 2023 Brett became an accredited ASCA Level 1 Strength and Conditioning coach. Brett has always valued the importance of exercise and strength, and adding strength and conditioning to his myotherapy qualification better equips him to work with athletes through all aspects of their training and competition.

Brett is determined to help his clients get the most out of their bodies.  Although sport is Brett’s passion he believes everyone can live a pain free life and he enjoys helping people from all walks of life achieve this goal.
