Gyms or any sponteanously organized group of people: if you book me, I will come.
I've conducted workshops and seminars for many years, covering a very wide range, from powerlifting and Olympic weightlifting technique and methodology, to helping top level roller derby teams, and teaching non-competitive lifters how to use kettlebells. Here are some of my current offerings.
My rates: €800/day or €150/hour.
Plus expenses for travel and accomodation.
