Denis Fitzpatrick
Coach
I grew up playing football and hurling (didn’t make county), played a bit of tennis and soccer, took up golf a few years ago and am currently trying to improve my weightlifting.
I have a degree in Sports and Exercise science and before joining the HH team I ran group fitness classes.
What I like about the type of training at HH, is that we all train together, any age and any level of fitness.
