Youth fitness coach

Jon Eilbeck

Director

Jon shares his passion and knowledge in youth development .
Uthfitt was established in 2010 when he coached at grassroots level and worked in the safeguarding area.
​Every young person is on a journey and each bend requires support or maintenance.
Over the years, he has developed an understanding of youth development using child psychology , mental health and autism awareness . He supports well-being with counselling plus trauma informed coaching as part of his programme.
​Being able to support young people is a great opportunity to listen and understand their concerns.
​I also support parents and coaches to have a better unstanding and connection with young people.

​Dont let Fear, Anxiety or lack of emotional intelligence stop you getting your goal.

​By supporting the feeling you will get stronger.

S. G:- My son was at a Premiership Football Academy and during the off-season, my son trained with UTHFITT. I was looking for a youth coach.

L. E :- We met Jon through UTHFITT. He was offering an holistic approach to youth development. During Covid, my child suffered being bullied which developed into a mental ill health episode. Jon combined his methodology of fitness and counselling techniques to support my son . Jon is a force of nature , motivating , sympathetic and very approachable. My son is now feeling stronger and now has the tools to help himself. He knows the door is always open.

​Jon has proved invaluable. My son was involved in a serious knee injury during a rugby tackle. His injury had a large impact on him physically and mentally. Jon gave him immense support and helped him back to fitness and he returned to his sport stronger after a season out.
His experience in working with young people and his commitment and selflessness enabled my son to stay positive, which he would not have done without this programme.
