Hanging with DragonDoorTV and friends at the Chicago RKC this weekend!!

September 9, 2011 By Adrienne Leave a Comment

Promise I’ll be back to writing articles for you soon! Right now as in this very second, I am observing and conducting interviews with some of the very top people in the RKC community here at the Chicago RKC – the first in the Chicago area.  More importantly, this marks the 10 year anniversary of the certification program.  Needless to say spirits are high and LOTS of learning is going on.

Tagging along at the “Media Table” with Amanda Salas and Spencer of DragonDoor.TV is really too much fun – we’ve even had the chance to get video of some UNBELIEVEABLE kettlebell juggling!!

It’s only the first day but already I’ve talked to so many super inspiring people and not only am I getting this info for Dragon Door, I am asking questions specific to YOU – the readers of GiryaGirl.com  Interestingly (not to mention surprising and just a little bit bewildering) several people have recognized me from this website and Facebook.   Long time reader Laura even came up to me with a batch of the Chocolatey Pecan Date Coconut Treats – she added some cayenne pepper and they were DELICIOUS (yes, I took a picture and will be uploading it very soon).

So far I have had great conversations with several Senior RKCs, Master RKCs, Level 2s and accomplished RKC instructors from all over the world.  And not to worry, you will hear all about it – from me and from the Dragon Door website.  By the way, I have a newfound respect for my folks’ effort on past Christmas Eves… I helped the teaching assistants unpack and organize all the kettlebells for the certification- there are several hundred here of ALL sizes… a surprisingly big job for all involved.
