📍 Navan Hi, My Name Is Dan.

Initially I studied in college to become a PE teacher. Growing up I had always been into physical activity and always in physical shape. However, I came to a point in my life where I returned home from America and became overweight. My confidence was shot, I became self-conscious about my body and myself, I felt sluggish, unworthy, not enough, and like I wasn’t going anywhere or doing anything with my life. Soon after this, I lost my uncle to suicide which was an extremely low point in both my life and everyone around me. I portrayed a different image on the external, but I knew something had to change…

I Then Started To Look Up And Study The Mind. I Realized How We Live, What Happens To Us, How We Feel, How We Look Is Completely Within Our Control. I decided to use these events as a way of shaping myself physically and mentally, I lost all the weight and got into the best shape of my life by working on my mental and emotional fitness as much as I did on my physical fitness. It changed my life around and that’s when I decided my true destiny was to do the same for others. I realized that the body, mind and spirit are all connected and is one system. And with working on our physical, mental and emotional fitness we reach and feel a place where we can live life to the fullest. It is my fundamental belief that when we begin to change ourselves internally followed by externally, we open up a new world to ourselves, we live with true health, true fitness, true happiness, true confidence and much more.

Some magical story today what we do beyond the gym floor…

Roisin shared this after her very first session with us and it sums up exactly what DGC is about.

It’s not just fitness.
It’s about moments that give you focus, energy, and purpose again, even on the hardest days!

For us, movement isn’t about chasing perfection.
It’s about bringing living back to life one session, one step, one conversation at a time.

Life is for Living > And stories like Roisin’s remind us why we do what we do every single day here at HQ 👊

I was in constant pain… I was terrified the gym would make me worse.”

When Fionnula first came to us, she was living with chronic pain and had avoided gyms for years. The fear of making things worse was very real.

But with the right plan, support, and adaptations everything changed!

Her strength is coming back. Her energy is higher than it’s been in years. And best of all she’s now pain free. 🙌

This is what we do at DGC:
✔️ Assess each person properly
✔️ Adapt and progress every exercise
✔️ Build strength and confidence at your pace

Because it’s not about smashing workouts, it’s about finding a plan that helps you live pain free, move well, and feel strong again!

Massive well done Fionnula keep shining 👏

If you’ve been afraid to start because of pain or injuries, know this: the right approach can change everything. You just need to trust in it by taking that first step.

At DGC, nothing is left to chance.

Every client starts with a full assessment and onboarding so we can map out exactly what you need.

Your program is pre-planned, adapted, and tailored around your goals, injuries, and medical conditions.

That means if you’re dealing with arthritis, joint pain, or anything else, we’ve already built that into your training. Every exercise has a purpose, and every session is designed to move you forward safely and effectively.

Because training should make you stronger, not leave you worse off.

Too many gyms skip this step. You’re thrown into big classes, expected to keep up, and often end up injured, frustrated, or back at square one.

We do it differently

Because our mission statement is to bring more living to life, and your plan should help you to be able live it well!

Are you 50+? Struggling to find the right plan for you?

Here’s the problem ⬇️

Most gyms are packed with huge classes, where you’re just a number.
Everyone’s doing the same workout, no matter your age, ability, or injuries.
The room is full of young, super-fit people smashing high-intensity sessions… and if you’re 50+, it can feel impossible to keep up feeling judgement, pressure and no spur to keep going...

No wonder so many people feel lost, out of place, or leave feeling more broken physically and mentally than when they started.

Then you beat yourself up for feeling stuck and unsure what to do...

Here’s the truth:
👉 If you’re mid 40s, 50, 60+ … your training needs are different.
👉 You don’t need to thrash yourself with endless cardio.
👉 You do need a program focused on strength, mobility, and longevity.

A program that builds muscle to protect your joints and bones.
That improves balance, mobility, and energy for everyday life.
That helps you feel strong, confident, and capable not sore, burnt out, or left behind.

That’s what we do here. Coaching that’s personalised, supportive, and designed to help you keep living life to the fullest.

Because it’s not about keeping up with the 20-year-olds.
It’s about building the strength to keep doing the things you love for years to come.

We have something exciting coming up…

We bring you MENS DAY

This will be a powerful Sunday morning to bring the lads together for a good session, sweat and workshop!

This is something I’ve wanted to do for quite a while now, it’ll be a morning of great fun and craic, but also a powerful session to allow you to reset, refocus, and reignite yourself!

From working with teams and athletes over the last few years my work is how do athletes and teams operate at their highest level and maintain that? The awareness, skills, tools, and connection in the group > which is what we will create too 👊

This is going to have limited spaces available so we can keep the energy, connection and craic to the best we can 👊

Drop US a message If you would like more info, honestly this will be a deadly morning not to be missed!

WHY I BECAME A MENOPAUSE COACH

This is WAY OUT OF MY COMFORT ZONE BUT > I want to help people going through menopause so I know I need to do push thorough it!!

I wanted to share something personal with you.

When I first started going through menopause, I felt completely lost. Sleep was wrecked. My energy dropped. I didn’t feel like myself physically, emotionally, mentally.

And the worst part? I thought I was just meant to “get on with it.” Because life was so busy, trying to juggle so much, bringing the kids everywhere, I'd feel like I hadn't time to "not get on with it"

But I didn’t want to just survive it. I wanted to understand it, take back some control, and feel like me again.

That’s why I became a menopause coach not to preach, but to walk this road with other women who feel like they’re slipping through the cracks.

If that’s you right now, I see you. You’re not mad. You’re not broken. And you’re definitely not alone!
