Desi Tricoaching was founded in 2019 by Shray Kandhari. It is a month to month online coaching service for endurance sport athletes such as swimmers, runners, cyclists, triathletes and mountaineers. At Desi TriCoaching we create personalized training programs for individuals trying to accomplish atheltic goals such as a triathlon, half marathon, full marathon. We leverage the power of technology such as online training log and delivery platforms and smart watches to create and deliver personalized training. We coach athletes from all walks of life and from all over the world. We coach athletes in India (New Delhi, Mumbai, Indore, Cochin, Pune, Calcutta, Guwahati, Shillong, Tezpur etc), UAE (Dubai etc), USA (San Diego, San Jose, Houston etc), Australia (Sydney etc) etc. Location and currency has never been a problem. We work on a month to month basis because we believe that if an athlete enjoys training with us, there is no reason for us to bind them to quarterly/yearly commitments. We understand the rigors of training full time while having a full time job therefore we help them optimize the training programs by weaving it around their hectic lives. We assist you in all aspects of training till you reach your desired goal. Reach out to us and we will find a way to make things work.
Our vision is to help folks from all walks of life become a better athlete and to help them accomplish their athletic goals no matter how unrealistic they might seem at this moment.
Our mission is to make coaching for endurance sports accessible to the general public at an affordable price. We want to disseminate information about the fundamentals of endurance training while we coach athletes.
