Ryan is the founder of the Urban Ice Tribe community and the Urban Ice Gear brand. He is a Transpersonal Psychotherapist, Breath Coach and Record Breaking Nose Breathing Triathlete.

Ryan specialises in cold water therapy as part of his own and professional practice. He has guided more than 1000 people into cold water and breath practices across the UK and world.

After spending most of his life using distractions and dependencies to avoid his feelings, Ryan now embraces the experience of life with both hands. He understands the process of recovery from addictions, grief, loss, shame and anxiety. The personal challenges he has experienced and overcome in life have given him the ability to find and offer a deep presence and empathy to others.

As a coach, Ryan offers an integrative, embodied and holistic approach to trauma, anxiety, stress, grief, loss, anger and relational challenges. He works with individuals, families, couples, corporates, charities and groups both in person at his HQ in Wigan and online.
