I obtained certifications in both Hardstyle and Sport Style. I didn't pick a tribe — I studied them all. Here's what I believe.
The kettlebell doesn't know if you're training Hardstyle or Sport Style. It responds to force, timing, and technique — not labels. I obtained the StrongFirst SFG Level 2 (Hardstyle) and certifications from RGSI and IKSFA (Sport Style). I bridge both because limiting yourself to one methodology means leaving tools on the table.
Anyone can follow along. But understanding why a swing starts with the hinge, why the clean requires that specific wrist rotation, why your rack position affects your press — that's what makes training stick. I teach biomechanics: joint actions, muscle groups, movement phases. Not just "do it this way."
My courses are NASM and ACE accredited. That's not a marketing line — it means they meet the standard that professional fitness bodies require for continuing education credits. Quality is the selling point.
"I don't know everything. I'm on a path of lifelong learning. There is always something to learn from someone, no matter who they are."
I've been training with kettlebells since 2004. I still learn something new regularly — from students, from other coaches, from movements that surprise me. The moment you think you know everything is the moment you stop growing.
In February 2026, Facebook deleted my account. 217,000+ community members across multiple kettlebell groups — gone overnight. That's why I built KETTLEBELL MONSTER. Your community, your content, your progress — it should live somewhere that can't be taken away by an algorithm.
