Fantastic experience: The absolute go to place in London for Powerlifting and learning the Olympic Lifts. The best coaches you will ever meet with years of experience under their belt. Established in 1929 it has years of history on all 4 walls, that is an inspiration to all. I first came here when I was 23 and inspired me to pursue a career in improving not only my own Physical Culture but others also. A decade has gone with multiple Judo competitions, BJJ and 2 Strongman competitions. I can all attribute it to being inspired here at a young age. Now at the end 2023 I'm 39 and recently competed in the -93kg Powerlifting. What else can I say and give back other than that I'm So proud to be part of Team Bethnal Green Get involved
