BETHNAL GREEN WEIGHTLIFTING CLUB

This is a new website for a very traditional and long established Weight Lifting club situated in the very heart of Bethnal Green, East London, England (UK)

The club is based at 229 Bethnal Green Road, E2 6AB, and is part of the adult education college.


Access to this club is through the adult education services of Tower Hamlets. Basically you join an evening adult education course at a discounted and funded rate. You pay up front for a 10 week course

Heres the link to the learning ladder website.


If you want to check out the venue, staff, facilities, or ask some questions, you can pop down to the gym, thats in the grounds of the Bethnal Green Centre : try evening times, 6.30 to 7.30pm, Monday to Thursday


You have discovered your doorway to learning how to perform the Olympic Lifts ( the Clean and Jerk and The Snatch) and the Power Lifts ( Deadlift, Squat and Bench Press).

These are recognised sports which gives the added opportunity of competing if you want to.

The coaching staff have an impressive list of both personal successes and success in the people they have trained.

We have started posting some great videos on you tube. You can click here to see them

I am an Olympic lifter from Chicago and will be working in London from late-January to mid-February.

May I train at the Bethnal Green club perhaps twice per week?

Thanks,
Bob Bondiman

Hi,

I work at Liverpool street and would love some coaching on my squat and deadlift.

Don't think I can commit to the 11 week training courses on Learning Ladder given work constraints, but interested if there was the opportunity for someone to help me with my form?

Cheers!
