SEMINAR/WORKSHOP PROGRAM

The kettlebell workshop consists of discussion and exercises for becoming comfortable with the use of kettlebells. Kettlebells are cast-iron cannon-ball like weights with a handle on them. Through kettlebell lifting exercises, the entire body can benefit greatly from a thorough workout. During the seminar, a few select exercises will be shown. The seminar will also cover correct body alignment, posture, and training techniques. Learn how to develop your own full-body daily workout routine. The strength, power, and balance developed from kettlebell training readily incorporates into any other physical exercise, sport, and activity that you do.

WHO'S TEACHING?

YMAA instructor Ben Warner is a certified RKC Kettlebell Instructor and will be leading the seminar exercises.
