from a sports player to a Fitness Coach
Kiran is a fitness coach who has always been passionate about cricket!

For his income, Kiran used to work with his father in an electronics and dish antenna business.
Kiran joined CoolCoach Academy to find work he was more interested in.
"I leant a lot from fitness coaches in the industry. By observing them, I also leant how they manage people as well as themselves. It made me understand about setting goals to learn and progress.."
Kiran was able to learn on the job and gain practical knowledge.
After graduating, Kiran became a Fellow Manager. After that, he joined a gym as a fitness coach.
"As a Fellow Manager, I got the experience of how to deal with adults. And when I became a fitness coach,
I managed a group of 5 clients. I felt confident because my work experience as a fellow helped me. I was able to engage clients with different activities that I learnt from the program."
He was building the skills to be a great coach as well as a manager!
Kiran sees a future in the fitness industry. For himself as well as other sports players.

Today, as a fitness coach, Kiran is helping people reach their fitness goals.
"My client Nanda, she is 53 yrs old. She had diabetes and it was around 240. Later while training with me it came down to 140, and then to normal. She had an injury in the knee, but now after the training, she can walk confidently and she even did a trek."
Kiran has multiple clients like Nanda and he has coached 100s of sessions with each of them.
Kiran's family is proud of him too.
"When they see me continuously taking sessions in English they are very proud. No one in my family or extended family can speak in English. I also take care of things at home and provide for my mother"
