We all know that Brian advocates using yoga as a
comprehensive approach to health and fitness. We also know that Brian has been
a fan of kettlebells for years (his private clients know this, too). But did
you know that Brian is a certified HKC™ instructor? That’s right; Brian
received his HKC™ certification after attending an event lead by world renowned
expert and author, Franz Snideman with the help of local kettlebell experts: Tim
Shuman and Adrienne Harvey. This is great news for the WGY community because
Brian is accepting applications to train clients privately in the art of HKC™

What is a kettlebell?
A kettlebell is a traditional Russian cast iron weight
the looks like a cannon ball with a luggage handle on it. The origins of the
Kettlebell go back over 200 years and have been used in Russian culture in a
variety of ways including, but not limited to, strength training, conditioning
for the Russian military, and circus performance.
Why train with a kettlbell?
According to the HKC™ training manual, “Because they
deliver extreme all around fitness and no single other tool does it better.”
Kettlebells have been referred to as “a gym that fits in your hand” because no
other equipment is required. That is to say, kettlbells are very versatile. You
can press them, pull them, swing them, squat with them, and all with a single
piece of equipment.
Oh yeah, and it’s a lot of fun!
Brian will teach you the three fundamental movements of
the Hardstyle Method: The Swing, The Get Up, and The Goblet Squat.
The Swing is the foundation of Russian kettlebell
training. It dramatically improves your performance in almost every athletic
application from running, martial arts, yoga, and power lifting because it
teaches and reinforces the proper use of the hips. “The swing is a fat burning
athlete builder,” said Dan John, Master RKC™.
Tracy Reifkind lost over 100 pounds and totally reshaped
her body by using the swing alone.
The Get Up is a versatile training tool. Fitness expert,
Steve Maxwell, brought the Get Up to the kettlebell community near the turn of
the century. The Get Up can be used to develop the core, the shoulders, the
legs, well… pretty much the entire body. It can also be used to bring balance
to muscles that are weaker or less coordinated than others.

Author and creator of The Functional Movement Screen,
Gray Cook said, “If I were limited to choosing only one exercise to do, it’d be
the [Get Up].”
The Goblet Squat was developed by Master RKC, Dan John to
develop the fundamental squatting pattern to safely unlock the hips and develop
leg and glute strength.
With these three moves alone, Brian will be able to help
you achieve your health and fitness goals.
