Ian Fox

Co-Founder

Ian is an author, NLP Master Teacher, Language and Communication Expert. An acclaimed Martial Arts and Health and Fitness Master, he’s spoken in front of audiences worldwide, appeared on TV and held Guinness World Records.

Ian’s role in CHAMPS is one of continual support because he knows first hand the importance of developing a positive young mind and proactive response to the challenges of being young today. He believes kids need the tools and skills to handle life and the confidence to grow and transcend through challenges.

Ian draws on first hand experience of being severely bullied at School and being left devoid of any confidence and communication skills. Through working with empowering role models and studying with masters of motivation, personal development and mental strength, Ian was able to overcome his inhibitions and self-imposed limitations to achieve at the highest levels in sport, in business and in life.
