Adam and Zoe have been dancing since October 2009 and because of their focus, skill and hours and hours of dedicated practice - they have very quickly moved up the rankings and are now starting to make their mark. In 2010 they achieved the top ranked position in Wales! Then in 2011 they won the UK closed Pre-Amateur Latin American Championships. They made it to their first international final also in 2011. 2012 is going to a very big and exciting year for the pair as they have been invited to the European Championship this April!

We wish them the best of luck and are proud to have them in Team Ionic.

Young International Show Jumper, Matthew Foster (21) Has competed all over the U.K. and Europe, Germany, Italy, Belgium and Holland. He is leaving for Canada on the 7th of October to ride for a Canadian owner and then in January he is off to Florida to jump a number of horses for the Canadian owner, where the temperature in January averages 32 degrees!!

Matthew started with nothing and has worked his way up the Show Jumping ladder as a result of his natural talent, enthusiasm and total dedication to achieving international success. His ambition is to ride for Britain in Nations Cup Teams & eventually The Olympic Games.

He is delighted with his Ionic Balance Band. Show Jumping is a tough sport, lots of knocks, bumps and bruises!!!

Germany, Poland and the UK.  At home events in Scotland, Blair is a Champ!

Throughout Christian’s short, but illustrious career, he has been a keen student of the golf swing enjoying the benefit of coaching from some of the game's finest coaches. Since the age of 12 years,  Christian has competed at International level. His first major international win was in October, 2006 at 14 years of age, where at the Royal Dornoch he won the Donald Ross Junior International Tournament, taking the title from Icelander Arnar Freyr Jonnsson.  He was aided in this win by two Birdies, one at the 10th and another at the 11th Hole. He's won numerous titles and trophies throughout his highly successful amateur career, later turning Professional in 2010. He now spends his time competing in British tour events chasing for his first Professional Win.

When Christian is not competing, off course his goal is to develop and improve performance within golfers, both on, and off the golf course. This is achieved by introducing programmes covering technical, physical and mental performance, to enable better scoring on the golf course at all levels, for all players.

Christian’s first Professional tournament was held at Castle Stuart Golf Course early in 2011 against ex- Ryder Cup and European Tour Players, such as Ronan Raffery and Andrew Oldcorn.  After the first day, Christian had a tied 4th position walking into the final round, to overall finish in the Top 10. His Sponsors are Cafferys, Capital Homes, Fairways and Allied Surveyors.

Christian looks forward to seeing more Ionic Balance bands on the golf course, saying, “So you like to look the part on and off the golf course. You also want to feel comfortable within your game. You love attention to detail and more importantly… You recognize quality when you see it!”

Ross, an Highlander through and through, hardly needs an introduction to local folk, nor to those further afield and abroad, as he is a renowned Scottish Premier League football player, and Coach of Youth League side Farr United. He is the epitome of health, strength and fitness and enjoys widespread popularity.

Born in Aberdeen, Scotland, he was signed by Inverness, in 1996 from the Highland League club Huntly.  He currently plays Right Back No 3 for Inverness Caledonian Thistle.  He holds the distinction of having played and scored in every division of Scottish League Football, from Third Division, to the SPL.  He is Inverness Caledonian Thistle's longest serving member and has won every Shirt number from 1 to 11!

Ross was honoured by being made captain of the team for his 500th appearance for Inverness, a 1 - 0 win against Aidrie.  Despite receiving offers from overseas Ross agreed a new contract with Inverness, in June, 2010.

Throughout his long football career, Ross has enjoyed many successes and accolades and is a welcome addition to Team Ionic.

In 2010 he returned to the 1000cc machines of the all-new Mirror.co.uk BSB-Evo Championship. Starting the season with the MAR Kawasaki outfit, he was fast straight out of the box and was leading the championship by the time the series reached Snetterton. But just days before the event, he and MAR Kawasaki went their separate ways and Kennaugh joined Splitlath Motorsport, where he rode the Aprilia RSV4 machine for the remainder of the season. Dominating the final rounds he scored 30% more points than his main rival Steve Brogan in the final eight races, including five wins, two seconds and a third. He narrowly missed out on the title by just three points after winning the final race of the year at Oulton Park.

For 2011 Hudson moves into the MCE Insurance British Superbike Championship, continuing his relationship with Splitlath Motorsport for a second year. He will again ride the iconic Aprilia RSV4 machine. Look out for the Ionic Balance team at BSB tracks this year!

Rob started playing golf quite by chance at 16 years of age after injuring his knee playing football. Soon getting down to a scratch handicap, he won the North East of Scotland Boys Title 18 months after taking up the sport, and made the Scotland Squad aged 17! The next 2 years saw Rob playing for the North East Team, making the Semis of the Scottish and British Boys Titles. He went to university at Aberdeen Uni, and represented the university at the Scottish and British University Championships. He turned Pro in 1996 and spent 2 years playing Scottish Tour Events before turning to teaching. He now has a very large client base, having taught American Collegiate Players and Scottish Internationalists but is happy working with all levels of players.

Rob has a very keen interest in fitness and diet and spends at least 9 hours a week participating in the various aspects of fitness, strength and conditioning and finds this advantageous in passing on knowledge to his students. His main sponsor is Wilson Staff and he is looking forward to a great relationship with Ionic Balance.

He will be hoping for a win in the First Timers category and then go on to the UKBFF where he will compete against some formidable adversaries in the over 90kg class. Having been successfull at sports in his school years, it was clear from an early age that he had the genetic potential to do well in the world of Body Building and has added 50lb of quality muscle to his 6ft frame.

He likes to train hard and heavy at the Forge Gym, Inverness and boasts a 150kg bench press, 190kg squat and 220kg deadlift. His stats are as follows - 230lbs ,18.5" arms, 48"chest, 27" quads and a 33inch waist.

Ashleigh's passion for equestrian sports began at the age of 10, when her father bought her her first pony, helping shape and model her into the successful person she is today. By the age of 24, Ashleigh qualified as an Intermediate Instructor (the British Horse Society). Whilst  partaking in competitive riding and working as a professional instructor, she also achieved Best National Rider Under 25.
At the 2009 Royal Highland Show she rode a Highland Pony to Championship victory. Shortly after, Ashleigh excelled as Champion of the Black Isle Show and in 2010 she was Champion of the Blair Atholl Horse Trials.  Her accolades and successes have also been reaped at many other events.
Ashleigh's energetic lifestyle sees her following her love and speciality of breaking in and training problem horses, as well as giving daily teaching classes, instructing riders of all ages, drawn from all walks of life. Often her pupils later excel in the same disciplines in which Ashleigh has so ably and admirably demonstrated her wonderful capabilities.  Feats she can be justifiably proud of. 

Ionic Balance will be with Ashleigh all the way to her future triumphs!
