Austin, you say you like keeping things "weird"? Well, if a sport that combines the explosiveness of power lifting, the cardio of endurance running, and the flexibility of yoga sounds weird enough for y'all then you should keep reading.
Kettlebell sport was popularized in Russia during the Cold War and involves lifting one or two kettlebells for ten minutes straight without setting them down. A training session can combine kettlebell work, barbell movements, running and mobility so you'll always get a varied and challenging workout. Another great thing about kettlebell training is that it's infinitely scalable, so both folks new to fitness and die hards can find what they need at Texas Kettlebell Academy.
Owner, Aaron Vyvial is the Lyndon Johnson of kettlebell sport (the great society, rural electricity providing Lyndon, not Vietnam War Lyndon). It's hard to say exactly when kettlebell sport was imported from Russia to the United States, but in the world of this young endurance sport, Aaron Vyvial has been around for a very, very long time. His team travels the world to compete, and regularly scorch the earth at kettlebell meets. Aaron's dedication also takes him to Russia once a year where he works with the best coaches in the world and brings that knowledge back to the students at Texas Kettlebell Academy.
The Lady Bird to Aaron's Lyndon (though they're not married, I just had to follow through with that analogy) is Jessica Gorman. Jessica has achieved the highest rankings kettlebell sport has to offer, is an expert in mobility, and runs the expanding program of fitness classes at Texas Kettlebell Academy that include joint mobility and athletic yoga, kettlebell fundamentals and tactical fitness classes. And did I mention that she is also fantastically cool, too? Well, she is.
So, whether you're already a dedicated kettlebell sport athlete, or someone who is finding fitness for the first time, the Texas Kettlebell Academy is a place where you'll find a commitment to proficiency and an unparalleled dedication to the well being of students. Oh, and an ass-torchingly hard workout, too, if that's what you're into. read more
