What is a Kettlebell?

The kettlebell or girya (Russian: гиря) is a cast iron weight looking somewhat like a cannonball with a handle, used to perform ballistic exercises that combine cardiovascular, strength and flexibility training. Invented in Russia and used for decades by strongmen, kettlebells offer users a wider range of motion than dumbbells that sit in the palm of the hand, and they also better simulate the way we carry things in our daily lives. Kettlebell training is accessible and practical for all. From the elite athlete to those looking to discover fitness for the first time, and everyone in between. It truly TRANSFORMS your body. All can benefit.  

What is so special about the Kettlebell?
Well this cannon ball with a handle has an offset center of balance and forces you to use the much neglected stabilizer muscles when performing the exercises. The result is that it challenges your body in a way that regular weights can not.

Kettlebell Basics

Kettlebells are the ultimate all-in-one fitness tool promoting strength, cardio, flexibility, and mobility all at the same time with a special emphasis on CORE STRENGTH. This type of training is perfect for those looking for ‘the most out of the least’ thus maximizing workouts and this class is a refreshing break from the normal workout routine. Kettlebells are definitely more challenging but also extremely fun at the same time. Kettlebells develop a lean, strong, and graceful look. You will also become less susceptible to injuries because you are training in all three planes of movement rather than a single plane which most traditional training methods address. You will be introduced to the deadlift, swing, clean and much more. Workouts are performed barefoot; bring a water bottle.
