“Look good, move well, lift HEAVY!”.

“During the early stages of my life, I always was the largest kid of the class, often subject to being bullied about my weight or being picked last on every recess sports team. I felt horrible, unconfident, and revolted by my own body. Although I was a strong kid, it was only during my adolescent period that I started to use this to my benefit and decided to drastically change my life. I educated myself in physiology, fitness, and performance which resulted in sparking a passion for sports that I still hold to this day. In the past, I have participated in different sports at a national level such as Judo (Poseidon Judo Club), American Football (Brussels Tigers), and Power Lifting. I have made it my life’s mission to share and transmit this passion and knowledge with others, guide them to regain control of their lives, and become the best version of themselves where others would not. It is you vs you, dream, hustle & achieve. Let me guide you in reclaiming that smile on your face, ready to take on the world!”

Clinical Biomechanics & Human Movement Specialist | Exercise Therapist

Aziz holds a Master’s degree in Sport Sciences (STAPS), specializing in Training and Performance Optimization – Monitoring, Optimization and Prevention, from Université Rennes 2, France.

His academic background combines exercise physiology, biomechanics, neurophysiology, movement analysis, injury prevention, strength & conditioning, and return to activity after injury.

His approach bridges the gap between rehabilitation and performance.

Every process starts with an individualized assessment to understand how the person moves, what physical capacities are currently limited, and what needs to be developed. From there, Aziz builds a progressive exercise strategy combining movement re-education, mobility, strength, load management, and physical reconditioning.

He works with a wide range of people, from individuals dealing with persistent pain or returning to activity after injury, to sedentary and active individuals looking to rebuild their physical capacity, as well as athletes seeking to improve performance and resilience.

With professional experience across hospital, rehabilitation, and high-performance environments in Europe and the Middle East, Aziz works within a multidisciplinary approach alongside physiotherapists, chiropractors, PM&R physicians, and performance professionals.

His philosophy is simple: assess first, understand the individual, build capacity, and progressively return to movement and performance.

Movement is Medicine.

Cindy is an energetic and dynamic 42-year-old with a deep passion for movement, health, and guiding people toward a stronger, more vital life.

Her journey in sports began at the age of 13, starting with fitness and group classes. Over the years, she continuously expanded her horizons, exploring disciplines such as Thai boxing, triathlon, charity marathons, strength training, and CrossFit, often combined with her love for dance and expressive movement.

Through her background as a nurse, Cindy developed a strong interest in understanding what the body truly needs to stay healthy and resilient. This led her to further specialize in nutrition, functional movement, and various health and training methodologies through additional education and certifications.

Today, Cindy combines her extensive sports experience, medical background, and passion for movement to guide others. Her approach is grounded, practical, and focused on long-term wellbeing.

Her mission is simple yet powerful:
to help people move more, grow stronger, and feel better in both their bodies and their lives.

She believes movement is not just about performance, but about balance, energy, and overall wellbeing.

Cindy helps people reconnect with their bodies through movement, strength, and healthy habits.

Everyone starts from a different place. That’s why she works with a personalized approach, building step by step toward:

• a stronger body
• more daily energy
• a healthier relationship with movement and nutrition
• greater self-confidence and resilience

Movement is not an obligation, it’s a powerful tool to feel better, both physically and mentally.

Sport and movement have always been an important part of Jean’s life. A volleyball player, runner, and cyclist, he enjoys being active in many different sports and understands how important movement can be, not only for physical health, but also for overall well-being.

After completing his Master’s degree in Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation at ULB, Jean decided to further develop his knowledge in the field of sports by completing a second Master’s degree in Motor Sciences, with a specialisation in Sports Pathologies.

This background strongly influences the way he approaches physiotherapy. Jean believes that rehabilitation should be active whenever possible. Exercise, movement and progressive strengthening therefore play a central role in his treatments, combined with manual therapy when it can be useful to support the rehabilitation process.

His approach starts with understanding the person in front of him: what is limiting them, what they want to get back to, and what they need to achieve it. For some patients, the goal may simply be to move more freely, without pain, and feel comfortable again in everyday life. For others, it may mean returning to running, cycling, the gym, or another physical activity.

When working with athletes, Jean’s goal goes beyond simply getting them back on the field as quickly as possible. Returning to sport is a process. The aim is to progressively rebuild the strength, mobility, control and physical capacities needed to return safely, regain confidence and ultimately perform again.

Whether the objective is to get through everyday life without pain, return to a favourite sport or work towards a higher level of performance, Jean sees rehabilitation as a collaboration between therapist and patient, with clear goals and an active role for the patient throughout the process.

Physiotherapist specialising in neuromusculoskeletal pain and the care of active individuals

Edgar is a physiotherapist specialising in the management of neuromusculoskeletal pain and the care of active individuals. His training in sports physiotherapy and through FIFA underpins a rigorous clinical approach, using standardised tests and assessments to accurately identify functional deficits and movement restrictions.

He carries out a thorough assessment to identify underlying dysfunctions, imbalances within the kinetic chain and compensatory movement patterns that may perpetuate pain. This systematic analysis guides a progressive, personalised treatment plan.

Currently training in osteopathy, Edgar integrates joint, fascial and visceral manual techniques into his rehabilitation approach, addressing the musculoskeletal system as an interconnected whole.

He works with busy professionals experiencing chronic pain, as well as athletes seeking to improve physical function, prevent injuries and return to performance.

His commitment is to restore lasting movement function and provide care that helps reduce the risk of recurring problems.

At Elite Sport Performance, we believe that moving well is the foundation for feeling and performing at your best. Philippe Tadger, our physical therapist and osteopath, approaches the body as a complete system rather than simply focusing on the area where pain is felt.

By combining physical therapy, osteopathy and movement-based rehabilitation, Philippe looks for the underlying restrictions, compensations and dysfunctional movement patterns that may be limiting the way your body moves.

Whether you are dealing with persistent discomfort, recovering from an injury, returning to sport or simply feeling that your body is not moving the way it should, his goal is to help restore mobility, improve function and rebuild confidence in movement.

His approach focuses on identifying and releasing restrictions throughout the body's kinetic chains, then progressively restoring the strength, control and movement quality needed for everyday life and athletic performance.

Because at ESP, treatment is not only about getting you out of pain.

It is about helping you move well again, so you can live and perform better.

As a passionate sports educator and qualified masseur, I prioritize listening to and understanding your needs. My experience as an educator has taught me the importance of creating a human connection, accompanying you, and adapting to your goals. This approach enriches every massage, making each session a tailor-made moment focused on you.

Sports massage is much more than a treatment: it's an essential tool for optimizing your performance, preventing injury, and accelerating your recovery. Whether you're a beginner, just getting back into the swing of things, or an experienced athlete, I offer precise, effective techniques, sometimes accompanied by tools such as Theragun, to prepare your body, relieve muscle tension, and improve your physical condition.

At ESP, my aim is clear: to combine technical expertise, attentive listening, and passion to offer you the very best in sports massage in an environment dedicated to your well-being and progress. Experience a professional treatment that combines performance and well-being.
