Not only does this series offer safe and effective instruction on how to use kettlebells with clarity and confidence, each movement session is designed to optimize learning by tuning your nervous system and fascial matrix, priming your developmental organization, improving core support and upgrading your dynamic stability.
Learn basic squats, deadlifts and lunge patterns with the kettlebell as well as upper body pulls and presses. Get effective teaching cues for kettlebell carries, swings, cleans and turkish get-ups. Additionally, enjoy Somatic Groundwork and mobility practices for your active recovery days.
Every odd day (day 1, 3, 5 etc.) is a unique 45 - 60 minute Kettlebells and Fascial Fitness class. The even days (day 2, 4, 6 etc.) are either a bonus classes, specific guidelines on active recovery activities, or activities to design a personal fitness session based on the previous classes.
You are encouraged to keep a journal during the program to track your activity and reflect on your progress. Each session provides guidelines to individualize the exercises for your needs based on acute variables (like reps, sets and load) and on rate of perceived exertion, or intensity of effort. You choose the level of difficulty and make agreements with your own body.
The videos for each class are high quality and user friendly. All you need is the space of a yoga mat, a stability ball, a few sets of light weight dumbbells and a few different sizes of kettlebells. All classes begin with somatic techniques for nervous system downregulation and fascial health. Movement prep follows and includes things like mobility explorations, myofascial unwinding and stability ball exercises. The bulk of class is about progressing the basic kettlebell lifts.
Enjoy the program for 1 year and keep refining and progressing your skill + stability + stamina + strength.
with a unique somatic movement approach. At the end of 20 days, you will move better with a renewed foundation from the ground up and from the inside out.
"After each class I felt stronger, more connected and skilled, curious for more!"

"This program improved my lifting skills and how to safely use and move with kettlebells in various ways."
LEE BREWSTER
somatic movement educator and personal trainer
“I definitely learned enough to be in control of the kettlebell, especially with swings. Before this prorgam, I felt uncomfortable training with kettlebells. The progressions were logical and it was easy and fun to follow the videos.”
KANDY BERNAL
integrated movement coach
Over 30 years of teaching, I developed the movement system Somatic Groundwork. I am a dancer, registered somatic movement educator and certified personal trainer. My approach has emerged through a systems science, co-creative, relational way.
I have taught and designed curriculum for collegiate, vocational and studio programs for fitness professionals, yoga teachers and dance educators. As an experienced 1:1 practitioner, I help people 1) with healing and repair from cumulative injury and under-recovery and 2) improve stability, stamina and strength.
"Kaila's expertise in the field of movement science is the hard-won result of cumulative years of interdisciplinary study and hands on work with hundreds of clients and students. As a teacher, there is no one I would trust more with the hearts and bodies of students. She brings a dedication to working collaboratively, and an acute sensitivity and ability to respond valuably to whoever she’s with."
