About Taz
I came to Olympic weightlifting as an adult with no athletic background. What started as curiosity became a genuine passion, and over 8+ years I've trained seriously enough to compete in the 69kg category. That journey, from complete beginner to competitive lifter, gives me a particular empathy for anyone stepping to a barbell for the first time.
I'm a British Weightlifting Level 2 accredited coach and my technical education has taken me beyond the UK. I've trained at camps in Bulgaria and China, learning from coaches and athletes who work at the highest levels of the sport. That experience shapes how I coach: with high standards, an eye for detail, and a genuine belief that good technique isn't just for elite athletes.
I teach because I know how transformative this sport can be, and how much difference the right coaching makes early on. Too many people either never try Olympic weightlifting because it looks intimidating, or pick up bad habits that hold them back for years.
My coaching is patient, precise, and tailored to you. Whether you want to compete, get stronger, or simply learn a new skill, I'll meet you where you are and help you progress with confidence.

️ Olympic Weightlifting Coaching – 1:1 & 2:1 Sessions in West London
I'm a British Weightlifting Level 2 accredited coach with 8+ years in the sport. My approach is technique-first: I believe that learning to move well is the foundation of everything — strength, performance, and longevity. I've developed my coaching eye through training camps in Bulgaria and China, learning from some of the best coaches and athletes in the world, and I bring that standard to every session.
How I teach
Every session starts with an assessment of where you are: your movement patterns, mobility, and any prior lifting experience. From there, I break down the snatch and clean & jerk into their component parts, building correct technique progressively before adding load. I make sure that you understand not just what to do, but why.
️ Session length
Sessions typically run 60 minutes — enough time for a proper warm-up, focused technical work, and a cool-down.
Who this is for
Complete beginners who want to learn proper technique safely. Intermediate lifters looking to fix technique and break through plateaux. Athletes from other sports wanting to add Olympic lifting to their training. Adults of all ages — no prior experience required.
1:1 or 2:1 sessions available. Bring a friend and split the cost.
