Bio
Yav was born and raised in Bulgaria. At the age of 13 he got seriously involved with Muay Thai and started competing at 14 and coaching when he was 15 years old until his early twenties.
Fast forward to 2014, he was living in Maryland, USA and randomly found a video on CrossFit®. Yav thought to himself “That’s the old age I want!”
Within a week he had attended his first CrossFit® class and was hooked! Shortly after he took his L1 and by the end of 2014 decided to pursue a career as a CrossFit® trainer. He did that full time until May 2021, where he took a 2 and a half year long sabbatical to travel and rock climb around the world. Now in London he is stoked to be a part of an amazing CrossFit® community again.
