Sydney Coach

Meet Kirsten!

Hey, I am Kirsten and coaching kids is my passion!

With over 20 years of experience in the health and fitness industry, I joined the Star coaching team in 2016 and have been leading the Sydney branch since 2020. I’m passionate about creating fun, supportive sessions where young athletes can develop their skills, build confidence and discover a love of athletics.

At Star, we are process-driven and athlete-centred, with an individualised approach that challenges each athlete at the right level for their development. We provide a clear pathway from building strong movement foundations and learning the fundamentals through to athletes looking to compete and improve performance.

While we’re proud of the many athletes who have gone on to achieve regional and state representation, we believe performance is built through patience, consistency and strong foundations — with fun and social connection always at the heart of our sessions.

There’s nothing more rewarding than watching an athlete master a new skill, overcome a challenge and discover what they’re capable of, both on and off the track.

Helping young athletes move well, grow confidently and reach their potential is what I love most about coaching.
