Holst's early years were spent abroad, travelling with his family to the various postings his father was given as a government official. It was whilst at school in Bonn that his skills as a swimmer became recognised.
He gained his first selection for the Dutch Team for the European SC Championships 1998 in Sheffield. He was disqualified in the heats of the 4x100m Freestyle Relay at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia.
