What does RKC stand for?

November 14, 2015 By Adrienne Harvey Leave a Comment

RKC is an abbreviation for “Russian Kettlebell Challenge” or “Russian Kettlebell Certification” and refers to Dragon Door’s 3-day kettlebell instructor certification workshops held all around the world.  This challenging workshop teaches six main kettlebell lifts along with many other non-tested drills.  Participants are required to pass technique tests, a teaching test, and a grueling kettlebell snatch test of 100 reps in 5 minutes with the weight chosen according to the participant’s weight class. Unlike many certifications and workshops in the mainstream fitness industry, participants are strongly encouraged to train for this event to be able to pass and more importantly to best use the information they will receive.
