Europe-based trainer Craig Burton hails from sunny Perth, Western Australia.
After spending a childhood immersed in sport, fitness and sitting on his surfboard Craig found two passions that transformed his life: Martial Arts and Drama.
From martial arts he found discipline, confidence, strength and perseverance, while drama gave him a chance to transform his body into various forms and find freedom in expression.
This led Craig to studying a Sports Science Degree at Edith Cowan University in Perth and Ohio State University in America.
Following his study in America, he set off to travel Europe which he fell in love with and vowed to return.
Upon finishing his degree, Craig was accepted to train at one of Australia's leading Drama Schools, the Victorian College of the Arts.
There he spent two years integrating various training disciplines including martial arts, yoga, Feldenkrais, Alexander technique and physical training to enhance performance and further develop his aim for a free, functional and expressive body.
Since returning to Europe nearly four years ago Craig has been kept busy with advanced training including naturopathy, corrective exercise and massage therapy to achieve a more holisitc health and fitness system for his clients.
