While I have previously taught at University level, this course is not about reading tonnes of
literature or completing tests and assignments. It is a real live, interactive mentorship with
immediate practical application.

From day 1 you will be applying concepts to yourself, your athletes and your business.
The content is based on theory, best practice, 20 years of coaching experience, 15 years of
business experience and 10 years of powerlifting specific experience.

​At the end of this mentorship my coaching company, Barbell and Beyond will be hiring a new
coach or new coaches.
- For the 2025 hiring, this coach needs to be NZ based. Show us your interest, dedication
and commitment now.
- For the 2026 hiring, we will look to expand for an internationally based coach.
