Profile: Louise Dumée
I started coaching 1 client in 2012 and got hooked onto helping other people achieve their goals. I now coach numerous athletes, each completing various distances with a wide range of experience and age. It’s truly exciting balancing my training, Personal training business, massage business, and coaching career with my family life and bringing up my two beautiful kids with the support of my partner.
I believe in blending a functional strength and condition training plan with an athlete’s lifestyle as my passion is assisting athletes in having a well balanced body, therefore I incorporate a lot of injury prevention strategies, as well as nutrition advice to assist in performance and recovery. I am always continuing to educate myself in as many aspects as I can within triathlon to provide the best information and plans for each and everyone of my clients to help them achieve their goals.

I have a real interest in blending a functional strength and condition training plan with an athlete’s lifestyle. My latest passion is assisting athletes have a well balanced body and incorporate a lot of injury prevention strategies, as well as nutrition to assist in performance and recovery. I am always continuing to educate myself in as many aspects as I can within triathlon to provide the best information and plans for each and everyone of my clients to help them achieve their goals.
Sports and exercise rehabilitation after an injury or surgery is another field where I extended my interests to and completed my Physical Therapy Aide certification in 2017. With my own experience with sports rehabilitation, and in working with other health care professionals, I obtained a lot of knowledge from physio therapists and other specialists in how to address the most common issues and believe that an injury cannot just be seen as a single issue, but part of a bigger picture.
In 2018 I pursued to broaden my knowledge in this area and studied to achieve a Diploma in Sports and Therapeutic massage with the aim to assist my clients and athletes with their recovery and training.
Competitive Experience in Triathlon:
I’ve represented NZ at the World Championships in Olympic distance in 2015, and 2019, and in Long distance in 2016.
