Why Couch Potato

We built the academy we wished existed

Passion

Racing is an amazing sport and experience, for the thrill of barrelling into a corner far too quickly than you are meant too while pushing the limits of your machinery through every lap. But also being able to be part of amazing communities who share a passion for racing, I have had the brilliant opportunity to be part of 2 fantastic communities both IRL and online, which has spurred on my passion for the sport. I aim to provide that same passion and energy through my coaching to share to experiences and knowledge I have with anyone I can.

Honesty

When looking to learn a new skill or sport, it can be very difficult to know if the advice you are being given is correct or if will actually help you develop your skills. I will always aim to provide honest opinions and teaching to everyone, whether its someone who requires motivation to push that bit harder into an apex or someone who might need a kick up the ass! I will always be honest with my feedback, to ensure you know you are getting the best possible

Fun

While its always fun to think we’re all Hamilton’s or Verstappen’s on track, the most important thing is to make sure that you are enjoying racing and not taking it too seriously! It is very easy to get competitive during racing which causes many people to lose interest before they get to their best, this is why I will always aim to make each session as fun as possible.
