The Coach
Nate Gamage - Performance Coach & Therapist
"I'm a University trained Coach & Counsellor having been trained academically and on the job for nearly twenty years. My background has strong roots in Sport and Fitness particularly working with youths aged 13-22 but has now branched out into the corporate world and areas such as Education and Corporate Team Building and Leadership.
My working experiences include nine years at an NRL club developing pathways programs for young players as well as running a fitness business for 16 years supporting clients with their health both mentally and physically for a range of goals from rehab to elite sports performance.
I have been lucky to work alongside many professional athletes and coaches including Olympic Gold Medalist Lindford Christie and multiple NRL, AFL and Super Rugby stars and coaches constantly developing my skills by watching and listening .
A talented player myself as a younger person my opportunities were limited by the decisions I made and the approach I took which set me on a journey to develop a program that supports young athletes on and off the field and helps optimise the return on their efforts .
My passion for the Performance Mindset approach to success includes not only game day and training but the challenges of life balance, daily mental health and their relationship to performance.
One of the great discoveries of this pursuit in mental performance has been the discovery that the PPC coaching system can be applied to many areas of life outside sports particularly when paired with the services of a therapist that can support the emotional challenges that we all face.
Based on the lessons I have learned combined with my studies in the mental health and performance fields and the results I now have behind me for my clients I believe strongly in the PPC programs and the benefits they generate both on and off the field .
PPC offers a resource to improve yourself in all walks of life by developing a way of approaching challenges that brings out your best"
