For a long time I was disappointed by what the fitness market offered: on one side, big commercial gyms where you feel lost; on the other, private coaching out of reach. What was missing was a place to train regularly, with individual follow-up, at a fair price.

After 15 years in finance, I changed careers: a fitness coaching qualification, then founding Milon-Club. The road wasn't easy: I faced surgery in the middle of the transition. But the project was stronger than the obstacles.

To help members of very different levels progress at the same time, I trained with StrongFirst, the leading school of strength. And I surrounded myself with a team of coaches all certified by that same school.

One trait sets me apart: I need to understand my whole environment before acting. I don't charge ahead with half the information. When I coach, I watch how movements are performed, the rhythm of the breathing, the quality of the bracing, the strength level, the compensations…

And I make a point of giving the most relevant advice at the best moment. It often solves two or three problems at once, because the whole body responds to well-targeted adjustments, and members progress faster than they think.

For over 10 years, I've been coaching and working as an educator. I've seen the boom in “miracle methods”, and I sort passing fads from proven practices to build a holistic approach.

Like several of my colleagues, I haven't always been a coach. In my first job, I knew I would never feel fully fulfilled. The day I understood that, changing careers became the obvious choice.

Before that, there was boxing. I fought as an amateur, at regional then national level. There I discovered the very high level of physical preparation the sport demands, but also a real mental challenge: growing under enormous pressure, and staying clear-headed when everything pushes you to lose your composure.

Training boxers quickly seemed a far more appealing future. Over the years, I broadened my work to strength and conditioning around the kettlebell, and StrongFirst courses were the natural next step. At Milon-Club, I pass on what the ring taught me: strength is built as much in the head as in the body.
