I met Ron back in April of 2008 at the RKC Level I certification. We were both serving as Assistant Instructors and were partly responsible for making sure the candidates were up to standards when the testing rolled around. After some brief chat's over the weekend and a few longer ones over dinner, I was convinced Ron was a great coach.

Fast forward to June 2008, our paths crossed again at the RKC Level II Certification, where this time, we were both candidates. Over the course of the next three days Ron coached and corrected my form on the 5 new drills we were to tested on. A tweak here, a tweak there and the test was a breeze.

While geography is not my strong suit, if you are anywhere near the East Hanover area and want to learn to use Kettlebells, YOU NEED TO SEE RON!

His attention to detail and ability to break the complex down to simple will ensure you get the most out of you Kettlebells, use them correctly and achieve your goals.

Ron Farrington's a great instructor who gets right into your form and fixes the details that mean the difference between an injury and "being packed" right.

Ron provided me with a great one-on-one session that really helped me set up my form properly. He's very approachable and tailors his instruction and his pace to fit every student. His instruction was dead-on and we were able to cover a lot of ground in just a short amount of time.

His new gym is just about done and it's going to look great.

Definitely recommend Ron and his gym (NJ Kettlebells)!

Ron is the real deal. He showed up on a 45 degree morning for a 12 hour day. The next day was nicer with rain. He taught a short notice outdoor certification course to 28 of the best America has to offer. All are deployed at this time hunting in some of the harshest terrain and against some of the most dedicated enemies America has encountered.The average time of service is over 10 years with some nearing 20. I can speak for all of us that this was some of the best, most challenging, most useful training we have recieved. Through kettlebells we were trained in full body training, breathing techniques under stress, and the proper way to explosively move weight while incorporating endurance. One of the most important take aways was the focus in operational durability. As the number of tours mounts, a more critical decision making process is required on the battle field. America needs to retain the experience of the seasoned operator and the training that we recieved allows the operator to strenghten and rehab our bodies in austere environments. Ron exemplifies the training and theories Pavel and his training brought to our command.

Ron was one of my instructors at the Russian Kettlebell Certification Course (RKC I) in Philly, Oct. 2009. He was very professional and knowledgeable and offered positive feedback on ways to correct my form. Although R.K.C. was a very difficult (but rewarding) experience for me, Ron was always supportive and helped me believe that my goals were obtainable. With his expert advice and guidance, I passed the course!
