Tharindu excelled in the corporate sector in Investment Banking, until he decided to ‘simplify’ his life. Today, he is a wanderer, explorer, bodybuilder and an avid personal fitness coach. Tharindu’s passion for all things Sri Lankan sees him in wayward corners of the resplendent isle. Traveling often, Tharindu explores caves, climbing sheer cliff mountains and treacherous ravines and it is no exaggeration that he has explored this little island we all call home, like no other. Tharindu’s approach to life in general, and his personal coaching, is rather unique and he understands that if focused discipline sets in, then, half the battle is already won.
