About Jude: I get my kicks from helping others discover a new possible and working out how to get them there. My role isn't to push and push. It is to listen, guide, challenge, motivate, provide experience, expertise and a good dose of humour. My experience of being coached as a high level sailor, working as a business coach and undertaking some crazy adventures in mountaineering, swimming and running means I have a wealth of knowledge and network to draw upon when I am with you out in the hills or in cold water I enjoy pushing my comfort zone. Unashamedly one for pushing the boundaries, I have sought out bigger personal challenges such as swimming for 24hrs, sailing around Britain and ice climbing. Each pushing my limits both physically and mentally.
So put all that together and you have got a person who loves being outside, loves working with people and who knows how to make it happen.
If you want to know more and don't spot me on the hills - get in touch cheers Jude
