I am a Spaniard living in Basel since 2018 and proud Tahi Coach since the end of 2021.
I’ve played a great variety of sports in my life, mainly football (“Hala Madrid”). Found CrossFit in early 2015 and it totally changed my point of view regarding human performance and the importance of movement and nutrition: it doesn’t need to be complicated in order to be effective. I have a CrossFit Level 1 Trainer Certificate and am very much looking forward to helping anyone reach their full potential, in the gym or in their daily life!

I'm from the south of France and arrived in Basel in 2019.With swimming as main sport background, I started practicing CrossFit in early 2013 in Belgium where I got very addicted by the life mindset. I’ve participated in CrossFit competitions as volunteer first, then moved to competing and got my CrossFit Level 1 trainer certificate and most recently my Level 2 end of 2024.
I’m a father of a young daughter, balancing working life and my passion for fitness. I’m always glad to help people improve their fitness to the next level and share how to manage and navigate outside your comfort zone.

I have been passionate about sports all my life, most of all about football. Having played at the highest level in Switzerland and then at university level in the United States, I soon realised the importance of not only working on your skills and endurance on the pitch, but also on your strength and fitness in the gym - so after my more active football years, I ended up with CrossFit in 2016.
Through my work in a foundation working in sports for protection, as well as through my experience as a children’s football coach, I have found that not only is it important for kids to be physically active, but that they can learn so much more than just the sports skills and becoming fitter in a training: They can make friends, learn values, improve social and cognitive skills and how to deal with and express emotions. Through Tahi Kids, I want to give children the chance to create a positive relationship with fitness while learning skills for life.
