Ivan

Hi I’m Ivan, 43 years old originally from Belgrade, Serbia. I immigrated to NZ with my most immediate family in 1995. I grew up in Takapuna on the North Shore where I attended Takapuna Grammar School. After finishing high school, I studied Bachelor of Sport and Exercise science degree at the University of Auckland, which I completed in 2006.

Since then I have been working in the sport and fitness industry, in a variety of coaching/PT roles.

I always had a keen interest in sports and love working with people which is why I have chosen this role. I enjoy a variety of training, including strength training, kettlebells, but I also enjoy sports, having played football (soccer) at a National league level, tennis and basketball. I also enjoy the outdoors, so like to go hiking or skiing whenever I have the opportunity!

I have a great passion and genuine interest for helping people improve their fitness and the overall quality of their life. Aside from sports and fitness, I also enjoy good food, music (used to host a radio show) and arts, travelling (never enough!).

I m stoked to be part of the SoulSprite family, and look forward to meeting everyone. Currently I run classes on Friday and Saturday mornings (TRx, Kettlebells and Strength Dual).
