Geoff, I really enjoy reading the blog.. thank you for taking the time to share with us all…
I was handed a kb about 2 years ago and fell in complete and utter obsession with it.
I was lucky enough to attend the first HKC last September and I have signed up for the RKC in Orlando for this October.
While I look to October with some trepidation (I have never participated in anything like this before), I am also filled with excitement – having the opportunity to learn all weekend from the best… well, what can a girl say?
Keep writing, keep inspiring… would love to see you in Orlando!

Jesse – The RKC is no joke. It’s a tough weekend and you EARN your RKC designation. It is a fantastic weekend. I love going back to them. I’m teaching at 3 this year and that doesn’t seem to be enough.

It is ALL that, that Geoff stated…. I can say first hand as well. the RKC Level I cert in Oct. ‘07 changed my life… Empowered me really, in ways I NEVER imagined…. Started for me before that in June of ‘07 . I was a lucky one, I trained under Geoff Neupert. The Level I cert was very memorable for me, I will never forget it! So now, like many RKCs I get to share my passion for the kettlebell and safe total body mechanics gaining strength and flexibility simultaneously. I have been in fitness MANY years and I can truly say that teaching kettlebell training the RKC way has fulfilled me as an instructor in ways nothing else could. WHY? Because we are teaching people how to move better, safer one person at a time. I have enjoyed getting to know so many like minded individuals from so many different backgrounds in the RKC. It’s simply awesome. Pavel leads by example and we as RKCs have learned from him, THE BEST. To Geoff, a big heart felt THANK YOU for all you have done for me…. I guess in what we do it is kinda like “paying it forward”…..

I don’t normally respond to these blog posts, although I frequent a good number of them often. But I just wanted to say, that if what you write is true, then I cannot wait to try my hand at the October RKC in Orlando. I’ve been a lone wolf throughout my life, working on my own, living on my own, breathing everything on my own, and then I found kettlebells…

Just got my HKC, and now I want that damn RKC. I don’t care about the money. I don’t care about the marketing or prestige I might gain. I just want to be there, and do it. Just to see.

Once again, thanks for the blog.

Fantastic article! I fell in love with Kettlebells a year ago and I still lov4e them! I have made amazing gains in strength and balance without working out to my full potential. I am planning to do HKC next year and RKC the year after. Long wayto go to get there but it will be so cool to be able to say “Justin Matthews, RKC”.
Geoff you are one of those I look up to and aspire to be like!
Functional Strength forever
Justin

I really can’t imagine where my life would be had I not decided to attend the RKC in Feb 2002.
