This week on 5 Questions we will have one of the top Kettlebell instructors in the nation, Rekha Ayalur and she will teach us How to Safely Master Kettlebells! Rekha is a gem. She was the one that first certified me in Kettlebells and was really patient and helpful along with giving easy to use feedback. She started out as a D1 middle distance runner and then moved on to be a Team Lead with RKC (Russian Kettlebell Certification through DragonDoor) and is justifiably viewed by her peers as one of the top kettlebell instructors in the nation.
