I had the best weekend. I was on a course with the International Kettlebell and Fitness Foundation to get my Certified Kettlebell Teacher Certification.
I didn't necessarily need it as I'm already qualified to instruct but for anyone that loves kettlebells they know this is the course of courses! To be honest I took it more for myself. I love training with the best people and that's why when I found out Ken Blackburn was coming to London, I had to sign up. Ken is one of the Directors and a world champion.

People came from around Europe to attend the course. We had someone from Germany and two people from Portugal. Funny how I don't know anyone who is portuguese in London and yet I meet three on a kettlebell course. Now that's Portuguese Power :)
The weekend was brilliant. I met some great trainers and learned a lot. Kettlebells are a tool that I love for many reasons. I use them a lot with clients as they are dynamic, fun and get quick results. They're not the only tool I use as I also love body weight training, using the olympic rings, clubbells and Thai Boxing but they are an important part of my training. I think whatever type of training you do it's important if you are training others to master the movements yourself.
What's next? I might try competing this year. Yup there are Kettlebells competitions! I'll likely write more about that later :)
In the mean time, I'm going to train hard, keep training my clients hard and just have some fun!
Stay fit and active!
