How it all started

It started with the love of movement. The freedom of being able to play, and explore. Does your body provide you that freedom?

Our story

Ian grew up in the mountains, learning to move playing sports and exploring the outdoors. This love for moving my physical body turned into me playing competitive soccer, striving for excellence. I was intrigued by what made great athletes great. Injuries put hurdles in continuing to play soccer at higher levels and during school I was undecided about careered in engineering. Inspired by the physio I had worked through injuries with, I pursued a degree in biomechanics. With an initial idea to work in professional athletics, experiences and circumstances taught me I love working with anyone committed to making changes and improvement. As a result Coburn Coaching was founded so that I could do that to the best of my abilities. My hope for people is that together we can build the foundations of movement and lifestyle habits that allow you to do all the activities that you love!

Our approach

By screening movement and lifestyle for injury risk factors and limitations that are hindering your improvement. Then, whether for individual training or group, personalized programs are designed to remove limitations so that a strong foundation can be built for reaching your goals. I have a decade of experiences with teens to octogenarians from both community gyms to elite sport.
