Ryan Thomas


Specialist: Strength & Conditioning. Kickboxing / MMA
Taking on: Yes

My journey in combat sports began as a competitor in MMA kickboxing and BJJ where I gained invaluable experience in competition. While injuries brought my fighting career to an early end, they also naturally led me to coaching, which id been doing in someCapacity since I started training in combat sports. I run Cumbria Combat Sports, home to a growing and successful fight team, where I coach fighters and deliver classes at Transformation Unit 247, our base since opening. Over the years, I’ve dedicated myself to developing athletes of all levels, from complete beginners to competitive fighters, sharing the lessons I learned through years of training and competition.

Wanting to push my coaching further, I became a Level 4 NSCA-approved Strength & Conditioning Coach, specialising in sports performance and combat sports. This allows me to bridge the gap between fight training and athletic development, ensuring athletes not only sharpen their skills but also build the physical qualities needed to perform at their best.

Alongside this, I co-founded Powered by Peak, where we work with individuals 1-to-1 and in group intakes, helping people - from everyday gym-goers to advanced athletes - build functional, fundamental strength and fitness that translates into both sport and life.
