Matt Hill – Source Endurance

Matthew Hill is a familiar figure to most Cyclocross riders in the Seattle area, having led the cyclocross skills sessions at the Jerry Baker Velodrome for more years than he is entirely comfortable admitting. His coaching and bike fitting history is equally long, and in his decades-long career, he has been lucky enough to work with clients that range from Olympic, World, National, and regional medalists in all disciplines of cycling to absolute beginners in the sport, and at all levels in between.
A multidisciplinary teacher, Matthew is also a black belt professor of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and his pedagogy is informed by the curious intersection of high level practice in both endurance sport and martial arts.
Matthew is a member of the Source Endurance coaching team and an instructor at the Slowtwitch bike fit school. He offers fit services by appointment at his fit studio in the Lake City area of Seattle, and is available for training, training plans, and skills coaching for individuals and groups at all levels of skill and experience.
Matthew can be reached via the Source Endurance website, or please feel free to email crosssports@gmail.com to schedule a coaching consultation, bike fit, or enquire about any of the services he offers.
