JT Multisport Triathlon Club

If there was an option for 6 stars JT Multisport would be getting it. This club is undoubtedly the best for local athletes to get together in an amazing, close knit, family environment and train day in, day out. Everyone in the squad is so welcoming and the coaching expertise is second to none. For anyone from elite athletes to age groupers, JT Multisport seamlessly caters for everyone. I could not recommend them more! Even if you are not a Canberra local James and the coaching team's extensive knowledge and experience means they can develop the perfect training program for you to fit in around any life schedule. Having been apart of the squad for almost 2 years and seeing the variety of other squad environments on offer across Australia I truly believe there is nothing that comes close the the environment at JT Multisport.

After months of searching for a triathlon club and contacting other coaches, I found that the coaches at JT Multisport are far more caring with their athletes and considerate with their overall well-being. Every individual in JTM is carefully selected not by talent or skill but by the quality of their character.Both Grace and James, are highly professional with their approach to training as well as their communication skills. When I started with them, I’ve had little to no knowledge about the training language that they use however each of them would pause their schedules just to personally explain to you in detail about all your questions in training, review your progress, and give the most optimal advise for you as an individual. They will always ensure to make you feel as a part of the group since they cater to all athletes in all levels and that your progress will benefit you when the time comes. I came to JT Multisport asking for a small improvement in my swim time however, both James and Grace showed confidence in their coaching skills and in return, trained me to significantly improve in all three disciplines in triathlon which is way beyond my expectations and they eventually helped me achieve my first full-distance Ironman race which placed me at top 2 in my country.So if you’re looking for a fun bunch to train with but also looking to improve your performance, the atmosphere that JTM provides to everyone is filled each day with quality training sessions that always end up with pain, smiles and laughter.

Ive been an athlete with the team at JT Multisport for a number of years now! my coach James Thorp took me on to help me pursue a goal of making a Triathlon World Champs. In 2018 i did this and now we are aiming for the IM World Champs...in all my time as an athlete ive never felt so strong as an all around athlete the balance he provides us in order to achieve our goals is amazing. I would happily recommend JTM to anyone intrested in beeing apart of the Team.

JTM has helped me achieve things that I seriously doubted were possibly and continue to encourage me to aim high. It's actually hard to explain how far I have come since James started coaching me. My confidence across all three disciplines has improved massively. The training that is set is alway tailored, I often feel like I'm the only athlete they coach because of how personalised my training plans are. The squad has brought such an amazing group of like minded people together and I have made life long friends as a result of being apart of the JTM family. I would highly recommend JTM to anyone.

JT Multisport Triathlon Club is all you need to reach peak performance in a structured and effective manner whilst enjoying every minute of it! What a awesome Team!!!

2019 goes down as one of the most successful and rewarding years of my life. All thanks to the incredible coaching team at JTM, I won 2 AG World Championship titles, within 6 days of each other, along with eligibility for my elite licence, all less than a year from my first triathlon. James and Grace are exceptional leaders who provide ongoing support in our journey to achieve our goals, celebrating our little wins along the way. They have excellent knowledge of the sport and attention to detail to really reach each athlete on an individual level. They will continue to find ways to make you a better athlete and subsequently see results in your performance. In addition to their coaching, JTM has built an amazing family of athletes who inspire me every day to be the best triathlete and person I can be.

I started in Triathlon just this year and have already improved and learnt a lot around training technique. Excellent support and coaching.

JT Multisport has offered me flexible, detailed and personalised coaching for triathlons and running. Not only is the coaching quality incredible, the squad atmosphere makes it feel like a second family and is consistently the highlight of my week.

Joseph Pascall - Multisport is the best club I know, even beyond the degree of catering to triathletes to my own background in swimming. But in a name, JT Multisport achieves far more than the appellation of club merits. The coaches are exceptional at providing feedback, easily developing a mutual learning experience with the squad, and by one-on-one sessions. I have found this a unique experience, as the coaches are far more closely involved than other teams and squads, benefited by the coaches’ own goals and training ethic for the very same sport their triathletes are engaged in. It is by this unique stance that mutual love for the sport meshes together with similar, if diverse viewpoints to the sport, as seen in their knowledge and training from the tailoring of sets to the development of technique. Further, JT Multisports’ support is closely cemented on learning the best and most effective ways of developing each triathletes’ training regimen to support their goals and availability. For this, the coaches now how to push, nudge each triathlete along the right way, and help build a proper understanding to aid each person in creating and achieving their goals, each milestone a celebration within the community, granting momentum by squad mates to tackle the next goal. And the environment of JT Multisports’ community is one of family, where care and mutual progress is held aloft alongside personal goals and their fulfilment. Their support has made an enjoyable sport all that more clearly rewarding. And beyond, activities are enjoyed by the team from occasion, building support, and providing further memories and means to interact with each other. It is certainly telling of the community’s shared enthusiasm that, even with originally training purely for Open Water swimming, I have now, somewhat naturally, begun setting goals toward the other disciplines of triathlon. Such is their support, and that of my squad mates and coaches; friends truly.

JT Multisports is the ultimate Triathlon Club. Great coaches. Great people. It’s all about being the best you can be and having as much fun along the way. Last year I achieved my goals of completing an Ironman and representing Australia on Laussane at the ITU World Championships. This is something I have failed to achieve in another club and training by myself. I put it down to the coaching and the support. Even with this lockdown period, there is great camaraderie and support through the JTM communication apps.Love this club and the people in it.John CartwrightTriathleteAge 57
