mark makes things fun but he also we work hard. he is willing to work with anyone and help them get the proper technique down. all in all i feel that mark is a great instructor.

Mark is my uncle but he doesn't treat me differently than other people. I love working out with him because I feel like I have accoplished something when i'm done. I also like it because he is always looking out for our saftey.

Great workout!

I have been enjoying my Kettlebell experience with Mark. Mark is a good instructor. He is motivating, pushes you, but is very kind. I look foward to continuing on this journey to become more physically fit with Mark's help. I like doing these workouts so much I am going to get up at 5:00 A.M. to do it. Mark is very accomodating and wants to help us all achieve.

After a year plus of hearing from several friends about how great the KB workouts were, I finally took the intro course with Mark on July 4th this year (he didn't even charge holiday pay). What a difference it's made for me!

I've always lacked motivation, interest and commitment for "conventional" cardio & weight training - that has taken a complete 360 since starting KB workouts with Mark. His dedication to driving each client to reach their full potential is apparent at every workout. I've benefited first hand from Mark's attention to detail and proper technique, which he's always demonstrating and reminding us about. You will not get "bored" with these workouts - I've attended 4-5 workouts weekly since starting 3+ months ago, and have never had the same workout twice. The results have been awesome, I'm in the best shape I've been in 15 years..

Thanks Mark for your loyalty in helping me, and all your clients, work toward our fitness goals.

Mark is a great instructor! He has a geniune desire to create the best kettlebell workouts for each and every member in the classes. Mark keeps the workouts different and challenging each time. He is encouraging and works to ensure that all participants are doing each move correctly to gain the maximum benefits of a Kettlebell workout. Kettlebells was the push I needed to focus on strenght training and a well rounded fitness program.

I was feeling lost after my personal trainer of several years left for greener pastures. I needed a change but wasn't ready to resign myself to yoga or aerobics classes.

Online research led me to contact Kettlebell Advantage. Right from the start, Mark was encouraging and enthusiastic. After taking the required introductory class I was hooked and signed up for a few one-on-one training sessions with Mark. He is incredibly patient, has the ability to explain and break down moves and always emphasizes technique and good form. Also, I really can't say enough about how nice and accepting Mark is. At 56 I may be Mark's most senior female trainee to date, but I never felt that he "went easy" on me because of my age.

I'm practicing kettlebells on my own now and plan to take periodic refresher sessions with Mark to make sure I don't develop any bad KB habits. I can unreservedly recommend that if you want to learn kettlebells right, go see Mark at Kettlebell Advantage!

This is exactly what I've looking for! I just started taking the KB class about 2 weeks ago and have already started to see results in my energy level and confidence level! Like so many others I've tried other exercise routines and found myself bored, frustrated, and with little to show for it. With having Mark as an instructor he always keeps the days regime interesting, fun, and fast paced. Time flys during class. Being a mom of 4 kids and 1 with special needs, my energy and alertness needs to be at it's peak, and KB's have given me what I've been searching for.

MARK IS JUST WHAT I NEEDED TO HELP IN MY JOURNEY IN MY WEIGHT LOSS...I LOVE HIS DRIVE..HIS PASSION FOR WHAT HE DOES..IT SHOWS AND MAKES ME WANT IT...

As a former college athlete that had been away from a regimented strength and conditioning program for ten years - it was time to find what worked for me in taking care of my physical being. I had tried it all in working to find a workout plan that met my needs. Upon moving to Vinton in 2008, I learned of Mark and Kettlebell training. For about a year I listened to people talk about Mark and the opportunities he was affording people in the Vinton area. In speaking with Mark about the Kettlebell Advantage, I quickly felt like I might have found the right workout plan for me. I took the Introduction Class and have been a regular attendee since the beginning of August 2009.

Mark has made a difference in my life and in the lives of so many others. His positive demeanor and consistent approach works for me. His encouragement only makes me want to work harder and do more in the "gym". Mark is a positive role model for the community of Vinton and is an excellent motivator of people. I feel more accountable to myself and others because of Mark and the Kettlebell Advantage.

He made the difference for me.
