Hi, I'm Ellen.
As a busy mum, I understand the challenges of balancing family, career and personal needs. I've been involved in Water Polo, Surf Lifesaving, Swimming, Sports Coaching and Physical Education teaching throughout New Zealand and Australia. My lifelong love for the ocean led me to discover open water swimming after having children, helping me reconnect with myself. I now regularly place in my age group in the NZ Ocean Swim Series.
Through EP Coaching, I help women who feel lost or stuck, providing support, education and accountability to embrace running, swimming and meaningful connections. I’ll guide you to achieve your individual swimming goals, regardless of your level, and ensure you feel confident and cared for along the way.
Running marathons and competing in open water events have brought me joy and balance in my busy life. These experiences, alongside the amazing communities I’ve connected with, have truly rejuvenated me as a mum.
