About Me
Alexander Stravs
I am a Switzerland based Strength & Conditioning Coach working predominantly in team sports and with different age groups. Growing up in with a variety interests I embrace the science of training and sports equally to the art of coaching and believe strongly that both play together for optimal results. So I try to constantly educate myself on all the different branches that ultimately are needed to become a good coach. Learning sound training principles and methods to me is as important as exploring new aspects about communication and leadership. One of my credos is: “Live simple, be humble, stay authentic and have empathy.”
Currently I work as Strength Coach and Youth Volleyball Coach with Sm’Aesch Pfeffingen
Before I have worked with teams in Germany (Aurubis Hamburg, SWE Volleys Erfurt) as well as Switzerland (Kanti Baden) and individuals in Volleyball, Snowboard, Football, Combat Sports and Recreational Athletes
