The Kettlebell Workshop
A kettlebell is a cannonball with a handle! It originated in Russia but has been developed and played with globally for some years. Many companies now manufacture their own kettle bells with some varied results. Regardless of the design, just swinging one of these pieces of equipment can have great benefits for full body power and strength development.
Our kettlebell workshop has been designed to cater for a wide range of capabilities. Whether you are just starting on your fitness path, workout and want to add to your training tools or are a kettlebell user looking to tweak your technique and improve mechanics this workshop will be beneficial.
Through structured coaching and training we will teach you safe and sound technique and development in the squat, deadlift, sumo deadlift, the two handed swing, single arm swings, high pull, the clean, press / push press / push jerk, the snatch, the windmill and the turkish get up.
To allow for better coaching places are limited to 15 with only 5 working at one time. You won't turn up and find 30 people crammed in to a hall. This is un-ethical and places attendees in danger.
We will use specific training techniques to work you through all the movements. The movements will be broken down and each part of the movement explained and then built back up.
We are not in the business of charging ridiculous prices for our workshops. We want to provide excellent coaching and support at a reasonable price that allows everyone to benefit from using these tools.
