10/10 Great resource for KB Instruction and Z-Health
 
By Alan Heddings / Seattle, WA, USA

As a fellow RKC, I have had the opportunity to teach 4 two day workshops as an co-instructor with Kristine. Although we were teaching the same material in each workshop, I found that I learned something new from Kristine each time we taught. She has a deep bag of teaching tools to call upon in dealing with the many different issues we see. Kristine is one of the most selfless and generous people that I know and it shows in her teaching. She uses every spare minute, before/after class and during breaks, to work with students on KB technique or help them work on corrective exercises with Z-health techniques. Although she is not CK-FMS certified, her knowledge as an FMS practitioner is top knotch. With her knowledge of Z-health and Muscle Activation Techniques, Kristine is an Kettlebell Instructor that can motivate and mobilize those in need of rehabilitation while advancing their level of conditioning. Most of all, she brings a smile to your face every time you see her. She is an outstanding instructor and a great human being.

 
10/10 Life Changing!
 
By Blythe von Reckers / Seattle, WA

I have been training with Kristine for 6 months now. Up until then I hadn't worked out regularly since college. To say I was out of shape was an understatement. To take the step to get into shape was terrifying, but Kristine was encouraging from our first meeting. She kept telling me how strong I was, which I never had believed before. I had tried to workout on my own, but realized I needed a more personalized approach in order to stick with it. Through Kristine I have met a great group of women to work out with, and everyone is very supportive of each other (and Kristine is their favorite instructor, too!). It just makes it all so much more fun. Kristine has an all embracing personality that draws people to her, and our workouts are never boring. We're always doing something different to help activate the right muscles to do a specific move, and she has eyes like a hawk to make sure our form is correct. Got to keep remembering to bend my knees! :) And did I mention how much fun we have? Lots of laughing happens between each exercise.

I highly recommend training with Kristine.

 
10/10 Kristine rocks!!
 
By Sue North / Seattle,WA

Kristine is second to none!!

After meeting Kristine, it took me less than a nanosecond to decide not only to join her kettlebell class but to hire her as my personal trainer to help strengthen my core and increase mobility to improve my golf game. After three short months I'm already seeing results on the course! Now, if only I could convince her to be my caddy.

Seriously, Kristine's passion and dedication to her clients' success permeates every facet of her preparation and instruction. She has an uncanny ability to zero in on areas of weakness interfering with performance and mobility, and then discerns proper corrective measure so potential is attained. Her gracious and encouraging teaching style dissolves any feelings of ineptness!

Exercise fun? Vigourous kettlebell workouts fun? Absolutely with Kristine's winsome personality and humor! Sometimes it's hard to decide if it's kettlebells I look forward to each week, or watching her in action. At times, I laugh so much I feel like I'm getting a two-for-one deal; core strengthening along with internal jogging.

You want to get fit & trim? You want a skilled, fun, dedicated instructor? Look no further! Kristine is the one you want to seek out!

 
10/10 Excellent Instructor
 
By Carla Quam / Seattle, WA

I've been doing KB with Kristine for a few months and I love it. It's challenging and fun. Kristines teaching style is the best because she is all about form and technique. She keeps it safe but kicks your butt! An incredible workout that I am addicted to. It's amazing to watch her demonstrate exercises because she is so skillful and strong, and you can tell she believes 110% in what she is teaching. That keeps the motivation going for me!

 
10/10 Great Workout
 
By Barb Jasper / Seattle, WA

Kristine's enthusiam is contagious. This is my first kettlebell class and I am hooked. Kristine is patient and dedicated to teaching proper form and building confidence in her students. She is a perfect role model for her sport. Her grace and muscle tone gives a beginner like me hope for positive results in my future. I have discovered muscles I didn't know I had and I feel stronger than I have in years. Thank you Kristine for introducng me to a fun way to work with weights that will keep me motivated and growing stronger. Kettlebells will be a permanent part of my workouts and Kristine is an inspiration.

 
10/10 Excellent Instructor!
 
By Betsy Sherpa / Seattle (Mercer Island), WA

Kristine is a fantastic teacher. She spends time with each student, focusing on form, and never stops perfecting any students efforts until they get it completely. Her enthusiasm for both the sport and teaching are contagious. I have greatly enjoyed her class and it has increased my interest in kettlebells as a permanent part of my workout.

 
10/10 Terrific Instructor
 
By Kevin Knapp / Seattle, WA

Kristine has a wonderful gift for teaching, a great delivery of instructions which is hard to find. All while making you work hard, stay tight, use good form and push yourself. The workouts are always exciting, fun, ever changing. I always find out what good of shape I am not in after a class. I leave more motivated then when I arrived to class.

Kristine and Andrea work very well together, run there classes and have lots of fun doing it. If you want to get in better shape, tighten up form, have some fun and meet some great people, you owe it to yourself to checkout Kettlebility.

 
10/10 Fun HARD Workouts - love it!!!
 
By Kristin Palmer / Shoreline, WA

Kristine was teaching the class I went to watch to see if Kettlebells would be something I'd be interested in trying. I was sold right from the start! Her excitement and enthusiasm for what she is doing is so strong that it draws you in! I could hardly wait to take my start up session so I could start taking classes! And Kristine was more than willing to get me started the very next day.

I like the way Kristine breaks down the different exercises. She has a way of breaking them down to help you better execute them. I've been struggling with the Clean lately and after she watched what I was doing she was able to point out a couple adjustments I needed me to make. Finally I think I'm getting the hang of it! Thank you Kristine! She also has a way of getting you to do more than you think can which makes you feel good about yourself.

I love Kristine's neverending energy! I always look forward to her classes - she gives a kick-a** workout, all with a great smile, and you have fun doing it! I always leave pumped and more energized!

 
10/10 Extremely effective instruction!
 
By Lt. Roger Sargent / Seattle Fire Department - Seattle, WA

Kristine Gill is an expert with Russian Kettlebells and is equally as skillful as an instructor. If you are looking for an instructor who pays attention to you for the entire session and balances safe technique with vigorous exercise Kristine will deliver.

Kristine walks her talk. She is very skillful in her use of kettlebells. She seeks to improve constantly and I have seen her demonstrate tremendous body control while doing extremely difficult routines using thirty five pound and heavier bells.

I have found that when she is teaching she is not self absorbed in her enthusiasm for personally using kettlebells. Instead when teaching she invests all of her effort in leading me to success.

Kristine's teaching technique is highly effective. She demonstrates the exercise and then breaks it down into the basic parts. Each time I start to exercise she watches very carefully for proper technique. If she sees a problem she immediately stops the exercise and describes the adjustment needed. Then she continues to watch to see the effect. Most of the time her first observation and explanation corrects the problem. But if I'm not getting it she makes quick assessments of the results and she uses a different approach to make her explanation clear. When I correctly make these adjustments I immediately feel the results.

Kristine Gill's teaching style is both technical and understandable. I have been able to avoid injury because she makes immediate and effective corrections to flaws in my technique. She is very patient and demonstrates throughout her instruction that she understands the process her students are going through to perfect each exercise. Her instruction has helped me gain core strength and endurance quickly without injury and has been a truly satisfying experience.

 
10/10 Kristine is Great!
 
By Julie / Seattle, WA

I have been going to class once a week with Kristine for about a month and a 1/2 and I love it! It is such a great workout, getting your heart rate up while getting stronger. I run a lot but don't do a lot of strength training. This is just wait I was looking for.

Kristine gives great explanations for the moves and demonstrates the proper form for doing them. She keeps an eye on how we are doing and makes "corrections" to our form as needed. The class is challenging and fun.

I highly recommend Kristine as an instructor!
