I work with those who shoot and those who coach: archers, coaches, clubs, companies, and federations. The approach is always the same: start from the data, work on one variable at a time, verify. You won't find rate cards or packages here. If you think there's something worth doing together, write to me and we'll talk.
I help archers understand their own shot pattern more clearly, identify physical and technical limitations, build a training plan that actually makes sense, and maintain quality when fatigue sets in.
Most useful for those who train a lot but have been stuck for months, those with recurring errors that never quite go away, and those who want to integrate strength work and shooting properly.
I work alongside the shooting coach, never in their place. The coach leads technical development; I bring a biomechanical and physical reading of the athlete's body, which often explains why certain corrections fail to stick.
Particularly useful when the athlete understands the correction but cannot hold it, or when an error looks technical but is in fact physical or coordinative.
With clubs I design tailored interventions: group assessment days, physical screening, video analysis sessions, workshops on biomechanics and conditioning, injury prevention programmes.
Up to coach education, monitoring protocols, and individual and group reports.
Since 2019 I have worked with FIARC as an instructor and educational collaborator, bringing biomechanics and motor learning applied to archery into the federation's training circuit.
With companies and federations I can design educational programmes, science communication, and methodological support for groups of archers or coaches.
I start from the data: video, physical and functional assessment, target pattern analysis. No quick diagnoses. First, I understand what is actually happening.
I bring together body, movement, and shot behaviour to get to the cause, not just the visible error. This is the part that makes the difference.
We work on one variable at a time, with clear priorities and specific exercises. We change what the data calls for, not what has always been done.
We compare against the starting point and measure the change. Then the cycle begins again, one loop at a time.
Most of my work is online: calls, video exchange via cloud, email and messaging support. The online format gives scheduling flexibility and lets me work with archers across Italy. For specific situations, club days, and workshops, I'm happy to consider on-site attendance.
Both. Much of what we measure is universal: posture, stability, HRV, periodisation. The specifics of the release and equipment differ, and the work adapts accordingly.
No, and I would never want to. I work alongside your coach, not in their place. They follow you on the range; I add a different layer of analysis: data, biomechanical assessment, periodisation, integration of strength training and shooting.
Honestly: in your first 6 to 12 months you need a certified federation coach on the range, in person, giving you real-time corrections. Once you have solid foundations and feel the need to go deeper, that's when I can help. For now, the best thing I can offer you is the blog: all my articles, free.

Write to me at [email protected]: tell me who you are, where you are, and what you're looking for. I reply personally, usually within 24 hours.
Tell me who you are, archer, coach, club, company, or federation, and what you're looking for. I'll be honest about whether and how I can help.
