In-person coaching – Based in Melbourne’s south-east, sessions are held in a strength-focused gym environment.

Olympic weightlifting consists of two main lifts:
Snatch – A single-motion lift from the ground to overhead.
Clean & Jerk – A two-part lift from the ground to front rack, then overhead.
-
Olympic weightlifting (snatch and clean & jerk) requires high levels of mobility, strength, coordination, and power, making it an excellent tool for both rehabilitation and performance enhancement.
It is especially valuable for:
Improving movement patterns (hip hinge, squat, overhead positioning)
Developing power and explosiveness (useful for athletes and active individuals)
Enhancing joint stability and mobility (shoulders, hips, ankles)
Teaching proper load management to reduce injury risk

Why Work With Me?
I’m not just a physiotherapist—I’m a weightlifter who has faced injury setbacks myself. I understand the frustration of being sidelined, the challenges of rebuilding strength, and the importance of a structured plan to get back to peak performance. That experience shapes how I coach and support lifters like you.
If you're serious about lifting stronger, moving better, and staying in the game longer, let’s work together.
What Sets Me Apart?
Physio-Led, Lifter-Informed Coaching – As both a physiotherapist and an Olympic weightlifter, I combine movement science with real-world lifting experience to help you train smarter and perform better.
I’ve Been Where You Are – Having battled injuries myself, I know how it feels to be held back and how crucial it is to rebuild with the right approach. My coaching isn’t just theoretical—it’s built on personal experience and proven methods.
Technique & Efficiency Focused – I don’t just help you lift heavier—I help you lift better, fine-tuning bar path, mobility, and stability to maximize performance.
I Understand the Mental and Physical Side of Injury – Recovery isn’t just physical—it’s mental, too. I help lifters regain confidence under the bar so they can train without hesitation.
