In an effort to expand Kettlebell Lifting in the West, World Kettlebell Club had scheduled the World Kettlebell Lifting Championships for Toronto, Canada. Securing Visas for the European Athletes proved to be a challenge this year, so the World Championships have been postponed to give the best athletes in the world a chance to get travel arranged. So, in place of the World Championships, the AKC/WKC will be holding a special demonstration on Saturday, September 13th from 8am to 7pm, hosted by The Toronto Kettlebell Club at The Fighting Arts Collective in Toronto. The Top Kettlebell Lifting Coaches from North America will be in attendance and anyone who can make this trip is welcome.
We are considering this event a Demonstration and will be opening it to the public. Any AKC Members can attend for no charge and may view the day as a Competition, Training Day or just a chance to meet with fellow Lifters and have some fun. There are no official events (open to demo any lifts!), but strict Judging will be enforced and Rank will be given. Come make Master of Sport!
In addition, for a $100 entrance fee, any non-Member may attend the full Meet and take part in a Workshop given by Head Coach Valery Fedorenko and his Top Coaches like Team Captains Catherine Imes and Marty Farrell. Contact AmericanKettlebellClub@Gmail.com for registration details.
