Our coaches
Alexandra Hahn BEd
Coach
My first motto in life is: Stay mobile, feel alive. Since the age of 3, I have been actively involved in sports in various disciplines and keep myself mentally fit through my different training and professions. It is very important to me to train physical and mental mobility and to maintain it into old age. As an active triathlete and person with an affinity for sports, I have found that training for younger athletes is different from training for people as they get older. My speciality is training for people from around 45, as this results in a different training focus.
