As an experienced Athletics Coach, Movement and Running Technique Specialist, I offer personalized coaching to help individuals of all ages improve their movement, prevent injury, and reach their athletic potential. I specialize in biomechanical assessments to identify weaknesses and enhance performance, whether you’re recovering from an injury, looking to improve your running technique, or want to move more efficiently in daily life. I’ve had particular success with children who may seem clumsy or uncoordinated, helping them develop better movement skills, which often leads to increased motivation, improved academic performance, and more enjoyment in sports. At my private studio, I provide training tailored to each individual’s needs—from learning purposeful walking to mastering elite-level speed running. Whether you’re a recreational runner, an athlete, or someone looking to regain mobility, I can guide you toward running more efficiently, faster, and injury-free. Why work with me? If your goals include running faster, improving endurance, training smarter, and staying injury-free, I offer structured, progressive programs that encompass all the key components: warm-ups, drills, cool-downs, nutrition, hydration, recovery, stretching, strength training, and more. I simplify your training by providing customized plans that remove the guesswork, ensuring consistent, effective workouts designed for your success. With years of coaching experience across the UK and USA, I take a holistic approach, tailoring each session to the individual’s needs and carefully tracking progress to ensure ongoing improvement. My expertise extends beyond running; whether you’re a triathlete, footballer, or rugby player, I can help you improve your agility, balance, and coordination, translating to better performance on the field or track. I also provide simple, nutritious meal guidance and tweaks to your diet that can help you achieve your weight goals—whether that’s losing fat or gaining muscle—while incorporating conditioning and fat-burning cardio sessions to boost metabolism and enhance results. Enjoy running with purpose and balance, with a clear, tailored plan that supports your goals without taking over your life. Let’s make your training smarter, more effective, and enjoyable.
I love to help people reach their full potential, the recreational runner who can’t quite complete their first 5K without getting injured. The person completing their first marathon. The child who thinks they aren’t good at sport.
As a child I loved sport and trained and competed for many years. Running has been a real gift to me in terms of my physical and mental health and I always wanted to give something back. For many years I volunteered as a children’s coach at a local Athletics Club, eventually becoming the head endurance coach, I also trained to become a Personal trainer.
I worked for England Athletics as the Run Activator for Surrey, setting up, supporting and mentoring recreational running and walking groups all over Surrey. At the same time I worked my way up as far as I could as an England Athletics Coach. I started my own running group in 2011 - Any1canrun, introducing a 0-1 mile course to encourage beginner runners. I took on more coaches, so we could cater for more people and start a walking group for older people, one of our coaches also set a beginners cycling group Any1canride.
I was eager to acquire more knowledge to help my athletes and started training at the prestigious Running School in London to become a Certified Running Technique Specialist, also studying upper and lower body rehabilitation.
Three years ago I opened up my Running studio.
There are only 32 qualified Running Technique specialists in the UK, that combined with 15 years’ experience as an Endurance coach means I have a broad range of knowledge and practical experience. I can help you run efficiently, avoid injury and train consistently. A good coach can actually save you time and money in the long-term by reducing visits to the doctor, physio, chiropractor, etc. I am up-to-date with the latest training techniques and can put together excellent, individualised training plans which take the guesswork (and conflicting training advice) out of training. A holistic approach looks at lifestyle, nutrition, hydration, fuelling strength and conditioning to minimise injury and time off training. In the event of niggles or return from injury I have excellent rehabilitation protocols.
When coaching kids and beginners I am good at encouraging and motivating. For more experienced runners my sound technical skills and knowledge enable quick progression.
My remote coaching offer includes: consultations to discuss training history and goals, a monthly training plan, nutrition and fuelling advice, strength and mobility exercises to manage niggles and prevent injury, email support and as a bonus I can analyse personal running videos and provide useful feedback.
My studio and all equipment is cleaned after each client. I have an infrared thermal (no contact) temperature gun. I subscribe to the NHS track and trace system and have a QR code that can be scanned on arrival. I have a checklist of questions to ask each client. I wear a mask if I get near the client on the treadmill. Antibacterial hand gel is available before and after the session. My studio will not re-open until 12th April, as per Government guidance.

Coach Peru at Endurance dynamics has been incredible. He's coached me from being a beginner runner with shin splints and illness, to second place female at my first marathon and a huge PB at Amsterdam marathon. I've been working with him for over 2 years now, and will continue to do so. I have complete faith in his approaches and have seen the results his programmes can bring, as long as you stick to them. The Endurance dynamics team and community are brilliant and I couldn't recommend them more highly.

Absolutely outstanding coaching. I started with zero running experience and with Peru’s guidance, the personalised training/running plans, strength and conditioning work, injury support, and constant check ins, I successfully completed the London Marathon. The personalised support throughout made all the difference, especially when dealing with niggles and setbacks. I couldn’t recommend Peru more highly.

I have worked with Coach Peru since Oct 2024 when I decided that I needed to take my running more seriously and found him through amazing on line reviews. Coach Peru has brought discipline and focus to my training which was previously just following an online marathon programme. Together we worked on building more varied training runs into my week e.g. speed through a structured specific programme tailored to my needs. I am a tennis player who wants to run to keep my tennis level as I love tennis so much. In between the 4 marathons I had completed I didn’t run I have worked with Coach Peru since Oct 2024 when I decided that I needed to take my running more seriously and found him through amazing on line reviews.

I am a tennis player who wants to run to keep my tennis level as I love tennis so much. In between the 4 marathons I had completed I didn’t run at all, trying to avoid injury. When I did get plantar fasciitis which persisted around my fifth marathon, Coach Peru helped guide me through very specific exercises to get me back to cycling first and then eventually running. We ditched all speed work and focused on a mixture of low intensity running (zone 2) and cycling which saw me run a spectacular marathon (for me) in Boston and get my 6 stars which had been my goal for 7 years!! What makes Coach Peru stand out as a Coach for me is his ‘whole person’ approach to coaching me to achieve my best, not just focusing on running. I have had a difficult year, not just with injuries but also losing some close family and friends. The very deep conversation we had just before Boston to remember my why really made all the difference in those hard moments and I smashed the Newton Hills as a result. The other thing that is amazing about coach Peru, is the community he has built at Endurance Dynamic which is so supportive, whatever you need. It is fabulous to see not just myself but everyone really delivering amazing performances, all down to Coach Peru. I cannot recommend him highly enough. at all, trying to avoid injury.
