The Best Physical Training
You Experience In Your Entire Life.
Participant praise for the April 2003 Russian Kettlebell Challenge Certification Workshop
"The very best certification training I have ever attended and that includes ACSM, NCSA, and IDEA. The all hands on format with the Certified Instructor Guidebook as a reference made grasping all the info presented very easy and meaningful. Would take anything Pavel would offer in the future."
—David Barrett, Owner, Why Weight Personal Training & Sports Conditioning. Director of Health, PE and Recreation JCC of Akron; Akron, OH.
"This is a great and functional certification. Pavel and his instructors were excellent in methods of teaching kettlebells. This is by far one of the most in-depth certifications technically due to the instructors, the format and the hands-on methods."
—Ethan Reeve, Head Strength Coach, Wake Forest University, NC.
"Hands down the absolute best physical training experience one could wish for. Top notch - none better!"
—Craig T. O'Connell, Research & Training Specialist/FDLE; Tallahassee, FL
"This weekend was worth the trip from Australia. I learned more in the three days than two years reading books. It was a turning point in my life and I am a lot stronger now than ever. The quality, scope of material and practical use is by far the best in comparison to anything else, you actually learn real world strength techniques."
—Simon Forsyth, Detention Officer; Whyalla Norrie, South Australia.
"Compares highly with the USA Weight Lifting course - Outstanding and much better. The professionalism while at the same time being given individualized instruction was outstanding. To have the level & professionalism of this group of instructors is and was well worth the price."
—Mike Burgener, Strength Coach; Buena Vista, CA.
"Without a doubt one of the most informative, professionally run seminars I have ever attended. Pavel is a master trainer who knows how to bring the best out of everyone."
—Shawn Mozen, Martial Arts Teacher; Montreal, Canada.
"The best certification course I have ever taken in terms of each and every participant being able to correctly perform the exercises. It rivals the USAW course and may be even better in that it is possible for anyone to become proficient in what we were taught in three days. This was a great overall experience very much worth the time and money. I learned a great deal."
—Josh Everett, Strength and Conditioning Coach; Riverside, CA.
"Absolutely the most awesome hands on seminar I've ever taken. Practical, effective, challenging and fun. The techniques and tips you learn you can apply immediately and feel the immediate strength improvement. This is stuff I can use tomorrow with my clients."
—Franz Snideman, Strength Coach and Trainer; San Diego, CA.
"This weekend has been unbelievable. It's still hard to imagine that Pavel and Dragon Door are so generous with this information. It's worth every penny."
—Doug Garbarz, HR Consultant/Ice Hockey Coach/Power Skating Instructor; Pinckney, MI.
"This was the best, most complete training I have ever received, period I was greatly looking forward to this training and was a bit leery that it would somehow fall short of my expectations. Not only were my expectations met - they were unbelievably surpassed. It was fabulous. As far as fitness training goes it surpassed the other training by leaps and bounds."
—TR Smart, Sergeant; Kettering Police Dept, OH.
"Better than any other training in the fitness profession. Equal to dance masters in modern dance such as Erik Hawkins, Martha Graham, Paul Taylor (who were all more than twice Pavel's age when workshop taken)."
—Kathy Foss-Bakkum, Exercise Specialist/Corporate Fitness; MN.
"It was an outstanding experience and you over-delivered on your promise for the weekend. It is nice to associate with true professionals from a business field full of so many amateurs. I was very impressed with your staff, instructors, and clients—it just shows across the board the quality outfit you all have created at Dragon Door."
—Tim Larkin, Master Close-Combat Instructor, Las Vegas, NV
"It was well worth the money I spent. I've been using kb's for over a year now, and the RKC certification still taught me some new things & it refined my technique. Overall the quality of instruction was top-rate, safe and very professional. The very high character of people I met impressed me as well - the instructors as well as fellow participants. I know for a fact after this certification, that kb's will be with me for the rest of my life. Kb's are the thinking man's strength tool!"
—Monty Singer, Student/Soldier in US Army Reserve; Veguita, NM.
"The quality of the instruction was better than anything I had ever experienced."
—Tyler Hass, Student/Publisher/Entrepreneur/Athlete; Medina, WA.
"This weekend has been unbelievable. It's still hard to imagine that Pavel and Dragon Door are so generous with this information. It's worth every penny."
—Doug Garbarz, HR Consultant/Ice Hockey Coach/Power Skating Instructor; Pinckney, MI.
"A fantastic experience for anyone serious about strength performance. Amazing for becoming a better instructor & coach."
—Josh Henkin, Strength & Conditioning Coach; Phoenix, AZ.
"First in all categories. Unquestionably the best strength training seminar I have ever attended. I was amazed at how much information was presented by instructors and comprehended by students in such a short time."
—Steven Knapstein, HVACR Mechanic; Oreland, PA.
"Up there with the best. Similar to USAW ( but more in depth, intense/difficult) and blows CSCS/NSCA away. It was a tough weekend, but a worthy challenge. Great coaches, hard work, much learning and a joy. I am a better coach/athlete for having come. Pavel is a master who knows his subject at an incredible level and is great at communication pretty complex stuff in a manner we can understand/use. Instructors have been there, done that/know what it takes, so they can teach."
—Stephane Rochet, Strength Coach; Westlake Village, CA.
"I cannot imagine a more effective training weekend than the one I've just experienced. The focus on 'practice' and not just 'working out' is novel in the world of fitness industry and may very well be Pavel's most important contribution. We were encouraged to perform each and every repetition to the very best of our abilities. I set several personal bests during the training almost without realizing it because the atmosphere was so conducive to giving 100%."
—Steve Freides, Computer Consultant; Ridgewood, NJ.
"The course, like everything else I have obtained from Dragon Door, exceeded my expectations. The grey areas and various questions I previously had were all answered as the course progressed. The training was tough but extremely fun and invigorating. I can't believe how good I feel mentally despite the pain my body is in. This is a tool that can be applied to all ages and fitness levels. There is nothing more practical in terms of versatility and portability. Finally, it has been a life-changing experience spending a weekend with other like-minded individuals. The energy has been incredible."
—Keith Weber, Physical Therapist; Red Deer, Canada.
"Indispensable, not just for kb exercises but for all types. Emphasized principles not just exercises."
—Larry Hutchins, Physician; Marshfield, WI.
"The quality is top notch. Pavel is undoubtedly world-class - a true master of his trade. The guest instructors were humble, strong and patient. An excellent, excellent team. The most practical training I have taken by far (I have a B.S. degree in kinesiology). Very thorough in terms of drilling the foundational skills. My formal education and post-graduate certifications were 99% theoretical, this is real and immediately useful. You guys have done something very special. All the planets have aligned, so to speak. From the top down, this is a first-class program."
—Steven Cotter, Trainer/Self-Defense Instructor/Consultant; El Cajon, CA.
"Unbelievable amount of knowledge was shared by Pavel and the instructors of the utmost quality and expertise on kettlebells that cannot be found anywhere else in the country. By far the most challenging, practical, and valuable material that can be put to immediate use for outstanding results in minimal time frames."
—Joseph C. Latella, Commercial Underwriter, Hartford Insurance; Frankfort, NY.
"I was expecting a lot, and was still floored by the improvements in both talented athlete and less conditional people a like. By far the best workshop I've attended."
—Stephen Troy; Chicago, IL.
"RKC focuses solely on the bottom line, getting stronger and more athletic. Not supplements, muscle fibers, who has bigger arms and all that other hoopla. I don't think the quality could be any better. It has been probably the most enjoyable money I have ever spent."
—Paul Lough, Police Officer; Milwaukee, WI.
"This was a no frills course. All the info I learned can and will be applied to my business."
—Anthony DiLugilio, Fitness instructor; Providence, RI.
"Quality crossover of usefulness in multiple sports. Highly practical for off-season. Quality of instruction is equal to that from Oly Training Ctr - USAW."
—Doug Fairchild, CSCS, USAW Reg. Coach, EMT; Amarillo, TX.
"Dragon Door has provided a unique and invaluable educational experience with a level of professionalism that far exceeded my expectations. Dragon Door and Pavel and the instructors that were provided more than met my expectations. I'm looking forward to the next seminar. The emphasis was on learning the fundamentals, rather than minor esoteric details, in a straight forward, intelligent, consistent and sometimes humorous manner. The instructors themselves were professional, kindhearted and caring as well as being humorous when humor was most needed."
—George Spears, Teacher of Yoga, Neuromuscular Performance Specialist; Rochester, MI.
"On your own you just can't self teach, self evaluate your way to the incredible level of expertise you gain at the cert. This has been an amazing experience for me. The instructors, Pavel, the fellow students, John and Andrea, all wonderful. My admiration could fill a book. Dennis is great. Put me down as a very happy customer."
—John H. Myers Jr., writer; Mountville, PA.
"The quality, scope of material and focus on the details was better than any training I've seen or heard of."
—Al Shaw, Web Developer; Pawtucket, RI.
"Far surpassed any other training I have done before."
—Anthony Arcuri, Real Estate Appraiser; Broad Channel, NY.
"I had the most inspiring, motivating wake-up call of all time."
—Mark Jernigan, Concrete Truck Driver; Kenilworth, NJ
