Our AWESOME Kettlebell Classes
Our classes group essential kettlebell movements with other classic strength movements to build both strength and stamina! Kettlebells, dumbbells, medicine balls, sleds, and ergometers....all tools are fair game here!
Strength & Power
Classes emphasize learning and practicing optimal form and technique for creating power and building strength in Essential Human Movements (HINGE, SQUAT, PUSH, PULL, LOADED CARRY).
Aerobic Fitness
Once you know how to move well, then you can start moving faster and longer for developing your aerobic fitness.
Full Body Mobility
Our repertoire of exercises - a combination of resistance training, bodyweight calisthenics, supplemental stability work, and kettlebells - has been shown to promote flexibility and improved awareness and stability across joints.
Have Fun!
Learning how to move well, and building a base of strength crosses over into all the other recreational things you love to do, whether they be like hiking, skiing, sports, or whatever!
Strength is your cup, and the bigger your cup the more you can fill it with the things you enjoy doing!

Can I drop in or try a free class?
The Nanaimo Kettlebell Club is a community based on enhancing overall health through physical education, skill acquisition, self-determination and goal setting. In that sense, the NKC does not promote a "one-off", "drive-in" or "drive-by", or "weekly dose" approach to fitness. We recommend that if you are serious about your desire to change your life, learn something new, or apply yourself fully and honestly towards self-betterment - then we are definitely for you! However, if you think that "wrecking yourself", "feeling the burn", or "shutting off your brain" are more indicative of your approach to physical activity, then we are definitely NOT for you.
Each class is led by the head coach of the NKC, and he cares deeply about self-betterment and the application of that philosophy by each of his club members. Whatever he says in and out of class is meant to guide you, protect you, and improve you - and your safety is non-negotiable.
We do not run large aerobics style classes where a tired and sweaty instructor moving with the class barks catchy, motivational phrases from one end of the room to 20-30 people. We run small-group class of 3-6 people where the instructor addresses the needs of each member one-by-one and on a need-by-need basis.
The NKC strives to make real connections with real people to make real progress mentally, emotionally, and of course physically. That's what makes our members stay for years on end and what makes for such a special and inspiring community of people.
If you think this sums up what you've been looking for, we'd love to have you try a class! BUT FIRST - Please first fill out this Intake Form so you can tell us about you.
