Coaches
kerry keightley
Kerry’s passion and love for the physical and mental development industries is obvious. Along with this enthusiasm, he brings a very unique skill set to the developmental table, one that is guaranteed to provide the education and opportunity for any athlete or individual to rise up and be the very best version of themselves.
Academically, Kerry has Bachelor degrees in Human Movements and in Psychology. Furthermore, he is a level 2 ASCA accredited coach and carries the title of professional coach under the ASCA PCAS scheme.
Experience wise, Kerry was a former athlete, who has spent over 30 years in physical preparation environments and the last decade helping develop athletes from beginner level up to Olympians and world champions.
Personal experience of hardship provides the wisdom that enables disappointments to become opportunities, a key ingredient needed by any athlete or individual. A horrific car accident at an early age left Kerry with a broken neck in two places, add that to being an auto immune sufferer, Kerry understands more than most what it takes to break the rules and to do the impossible, as he has literally had to learn how to walk, run and play again, not once but three times in his life.
Lastly, his passion for improvement has led Kerry to find mentorship with Nam Baldwin from BET (Breath Training). A partnership that has provided Kerry with yet another master key to help anyone and everyone lead their best lives.
These above points make Kerry’s coaching style so very unique not just in Australia but globally.
Athletes can recruit Kerry’s services as:
- A mindset and performance coach
- A strength and conditioning coach
- A Breath Enhancement Instructor
- All three
