“Chelsea was going through a period of self-doubt and looking to give up athletics, Steve took the time to talk to her and invited her to join his training squad. He focused on bringing back the fun and enjoyment of athletics and helped Chelsea to run for love, not just to be serious and win. His trainings are built on respect and friendship which helps the kids to train at their capability, not of others”
