Become a Better Orienteer with Personalised Online Coaching!

I am a political refugee from Belarus, currently living in Poland, offering personalised online training in orienteering. 

Whether you're an intermediate or advanced orienteer, I can help you enhance your navigation skills and overall performance.
The number of available spots is limited.


Here’s what I can offer:

  • Flexible Training Plans: I create customised programs focused on the technical aspects of orienteering, taking into account your strengths and weaknesses in navigation. This approach allows us to prioritise the improvement of your weakest areas first, ensuring more effective progress in your skills. Please note that my services do not include physical training plans.
  • Terrain Workouts: I plan sessions on the terrain to enhance your navigational abilities. 
  • On-Table Exercises: I provide and evaluate technical exercises that you can complete from home to improve your map-reading and decision-making skills.
  • Detailed Performance Analysis: I offer a comprehensive review of your previous performances to help you learn and grow from your experiences.
This training is available for individuals or groups, including beginner coaches with their athletes. Limited spots available! 

My Background and Experience

I have nearly 40 years of experience in orienteering. As a coach, I have worked with athletes of various ages and skill levels. Some results were in the TOP 30 in World Cup stages.

I am also the author of the book "Confident Orienteering: A Systematic Approach to Minimising Errors. Book 1: Fundamentals" was published last year. The book has already been translated into four languages in addition to the original English, with three more translations in progress. I am currently working on Book 2 of this practical guide.

 I’m also the creator and co-author of the Facebook group "Orienteering Technical Trainings," one of the largest groups dedicated to orienteering. For more detailed information about my background and expertise, please visit the "About Me" section of my blog

Starting Our Collaboration

Start with a Free Introductory Meeting (90 minutes) to discuss your package, which typically includes 10 one-hour sesions based on my Approach to navigation, "Confident Orienteering," for 300 euros. This can be adjusted based on your level and goals. Pricing for small groups will be discussed separately. 

 During these one-on-one sessions, we will directly refer to your experiences, including mistakes and successful decisions from previous courses, which will help you better grasp the material.

These 10 sessions are paid upfront, and you can receive a full refund if you're not satisfied with my services before the fourth session. After completing these lectures, we will create a personalised training plan tailored to your needs.

Training will begin no earlier than November.

Left, Right, or Straight: Leg Analysis #13

  Left, Right, or Straight: Leg Analysis #13 Today we will take a close look at the route choice for leg 5-6  from the women's elite long-distance  at the "Närkekvartetten" 3-day event in Sweden (May 11, 2024) The altitude gain on this leg will not have a significant effect on the route choice.  The right-hand route doesn't look bad in the first half, with a fairly large section along the road. However, after the stream (point A), there is difficult navigation with challenging runnability. Therefore, we will abandon this route and choose between the 'direct' and 'left' routes. The straight and left routes are identical up to the midpoint (point B). Therefore, we have ample time on the course to make a decision. Additionally, the alternative of running to point B on the right side of the road (orange track) is not favourable as it involves a longer path compared to the straight route to point B, where there is a long path. Let's look at the differe

Left, Right, or Straight #7

Left, Right, or Straight #7 When I saw leg 4-5, I thought, 'What a not very interesting long leg with an unambiguous route on the right side along the crest of the hill.' However, it turns out that's not actually the case. Many athletes didn't take advantage of this opportunity. Do you think there's an equally viable alternative to the route on the right? source: https://www.livelox.com/Viewer/Costa-Calida-2024-Larga-Caravaca-/M-35A?classId=716564&tab=player Expect a detailed analysis of this leg in a few days.

Left, Right, or Straight: Leg Analysis #9

  Left, Right, or Straight: Leg Analysis #9 Today, we will focus on a detailed analysis of leg 14-15 from the women's long course at 'Spring Spartacus' event in Hungary. I find the route choice for leg 14-15  to be simple and unambiguous.  This perception is supported by the GPS tracks of the competitors. Interestingly, only one competitor from this class took the right-hand route out of all those who loaded their tracks on Livelox. We cannot definitively attribute this deviation to the athlete's error. For many runners, these competitions were part of the training camp for the European Championships 2024. The athlete may have had different objectives than simply completing the course quickly. It's possible that on this leg, she was practicing a challenging technical skill, such as running along a slope. However, based on this iformation, we can assess how effective the right-hand route was.  The leg is 1060 metres long, crossing massive landforms. Therefore, one
