Australian Brennon Dowrick is one of Australia’s most successful male gymnasts. He has represented Australia at two Olympic games, three Commonwealth Games and seven World Championships. Brennon was Australia’s first ever gymnastics Commonwealth Games Gold Medallist in 1990, a feat he repeated in 1994. He also was Australia’s first Olympic games finalist at the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games. 

From the age of seven, Brennon had the goal of representing his country at the Olympic games. Joining the Australian Institute of Sport at the age of twelve and spending sixteen years on scholarship, Brennon lived through highs and lows with an unwavering passion to achieve beyond his dreams.

Brennon has been speaking since the age of twelve when he started winning high school public speaking competitions. Upon his retirement from gymnastics in 2000, speaking became Brennon’s full time career choice. It is a challenging and rewarding path for him and he embraces each presentation. Brennon especially appreciates the opportunity to meet so many people who are committed to giving their best to their work and personal lives.

In addition to his elite sporting career, Brennon completed a journalism degree and worked with one of Australia’s leading corporations. Brennon is married to Kym and is father to Nathan, Mia, Troy and Kira. Fatherhood, he believes, is the most challenging career of all! These life experiences allow him to understand the demands of corporate life and to motivate and lead others to achieve success. 

Brennon and Kym are also the owners of consulting company Performance Max that provides corporate training programs focusing on the benefits to the workplace of personal health and fitness. Performance Max is proud to contract Australia’s top sports science and medicine professionals as our presenters to deliver a one-day program that can change personal health and wellbeing for the better.

Brennon’s future goals are to continue to deliver exceptional services to clients and to keep enjoying speaking to audiences around the world. He loves spending family time with Kym and the kids and really wants to find time to play golf more often!
