About Coach Marc

Coach Marc is the passionate force behind Inside Out Pride, a holistic wellness initiati
ve designed for the modern gay man. With a mission to empower individuals to live heal
thily and authentically, East Londoner, Marc has brought together over two decades of
experience to create a program that blends fitness, nutrition, relaxation, mindset, and s
elf-care into a transformative journey of self-discovery and pride.
Marc was engaged to a woman at 23 and had to undertake a year of counselling in 2006
to get comfortable in his new relationship with a man. Marc and Graham moved to Edin
burgh in 2009 and were married in 2014 and puppy, Murray joined the family. After growi
ng apart in Lockdown, the relationship sadly ended in 2023.
In May 2024, Marc entered his first international athletics competition in Albania, winni
ng silver in the aged 40-
45 Men’s Long Jump. In the process, he dislocated his elbow! Newly single and now "dis
abled", suddenly he was in a dark hole.
With his stress reliever - exercise, removed, and isolation preferred, a drop in self
confidence and depression followed and the craving for affection turned into over
indulgence of junk food.
It was at this time Marc felt real empathy for Gay Men of all backgrounds, going through
the similar struggles, alone. This was the inspiration for the creation Inside Out Pride.
The experiences of being bullied at school, being a closeted bisexual in his early twentie
s, maintaining a long
term gay relationship and now on the single scene gives Marc that personalised touch t
o help and support other gay, professional men, like you.
On a personal level, Marc has a passion for stepping out of the comfort zone and trying
new adventure activities. He loves exercising, partying and being in nature and is a creat
ive soul that loves to draw, write and perform. Festivals, Crusies and travel are his loves
and he has visited 58 countries to date.
Coach Marc has spent over two decades helping people from many backgrounds feel st
ronger, healthier, and more at home in themselves. He understands the pressures of m
odern professional life and blends with experiences as a gay man and the empathy for t
he struggles entailed, to creates a gentle, uplifting space where you can grow without
judgement.
With honest, enthusiastic encouragement and simplistic guidance that is easily incorpo
rated to create real lifestyle change, Coach Marc guides you to tune into your body, stea
dy your mind, and reconnect with the parts of yourself you’ve been too busy to nurture.
When you embark on a journey with Coach Marc, becoming the best version of yourself
doesn’t just feel possible—it feels proud, powerful, liberating, and genuinely life
changing.
