Kettlebell Practice
Body - Mind - SpiritāIt is an art, a meditation, a path to balance and resilience. Stronger body, sharper mind. No destination, no final point – only the journey, lived fully in each lift.ā
Growth Through Practice
When body, breath and movement work together, kettlebell practice becomes more than exercise. Strength grows naturally, confidence increases and movement becomes fluid rather than forced. The repetitions become quieter, the timing improves and the movement becomes economical.
The practice is the joy and the journey is the reward.
Whether you’re completely new to kettlebells or looking to refine your technique, every session is adapted to your experience, mobility and goals. We build solid foundations first, then gradually introduce the more dynamic lifts as your confidence and skill develop.
Each lift carries layers of subtle movement and precise breathing. Mastery takes patience and attention and it is in this deliberate, mindful unfolding that the deepest joy of kettlebell practice is found.Ā

Experience
I have been immersed in kettlebell practice since 2008 and guiding others since 2010.
In 2014, through direct mentorship with the late Steve Cotter, I became Englandās first IKFF Master Kettlebell Trainer.
The IKFF remains a living system – evolving, refining, and deepening with each passing year. Every lesson is rooted in decades of personal practice, international certification and continual learning.
I am delighted to offer the International Kettlebell and Fitness Federation CKT1 Qualification in the UK.

ECHOES FROM PRACTICE
“
āMikeās training methods focus on the fundamental kettlebell lifts; the swing, press, clean, jerk, snatch, long cycle and the Turkish get up and these are the centre-piece of the workouts he has tailored for me, with a few bodyweight exercises thrown in such as Hindu push ups, Hindu squats, pull ups and some āman makersā for good measure. I am stronger, healthier and I feel more energetic than ever before. Mike has a wealth of knowledge and Iām constantly learning. If youāre looking for real results, get some kettlebells and Mike is your man.ā

āI was extremely pleased to find Mikeās on-line persona was no different to how he is in real life. Friendly, welcoming and extremely knowledgeable about Kettlebells. Each training session Iāve had with Mike has been appropriate to my goals and has built on the previous session both in terms of technique development and exercise intensity. Iāve always left feeling tired, but not absolutely shattered and not had the disabling muscle soreness the next day, which some trainers see as a badge of honour. As a result my Kettlebell technique has improved hugely as has my fitness. Iām now able to use heavier Kettlebells for longer sessions than I ever thought Iād be able to. ā
