Can you tell us a little bit about yourself and your movement background?
Hi! I’m Hannah and I am a kettlebell + mobility coach. I have been involved in sports from a very young age; I ran, swam and played football and tennis when I was young. In high school, it was lacrosse and rowing. I received a rowing scholarship to Michigan State University, where I studied kinesiology, the science of human movement! Now I’m a coach, with a speciality in training kettlebells, handstands and crossfit.
What are your top 3 pieces of advice to build a Healthy routine on a yacht?
- Sleep - prioritise getting early nights, and when it's not always possible to go to bed early try napping during breaks and catching up on sleep when the guests leave.
- Movement - move your body! I promise you won’t regret a workout. Find the kind of movement that works for you and make an effort to fit it in everyday. There is always time for a few pushups or a quick mobility routine. Or jump-rope /skipping is a great cardio option that is both fast and effective!
- Keep it simple - It doesn’t need to be crazy complicated, heavy or hard! Find a movement style you enjoy and just go for it; I promise you will thank me afterwards!
Which advice would you give to an online first timer participant?
Take time to get to know what workout styles work for you. Try a variety in the beginning; yoga, resistance training, cardio. Once you figure out what you like & what makes your body feel good, give it your best shot & enjoy the learning process!
