Michelle ShentonOnline Kettlebell Camp
Your kettlebell course taught me things about kettlebell use that I didn’t even know I needed to know! I was holding the kettlebell all wrong and I kept wondering how to hold it so that my wrist and forearm wouldn’t hurt. Plus the tips on body form were so specific and helpful. Fabulous course!
