KB Kickstart
Your Kettlebell Journey Start Here
Many people set goals to get in shape for a particular season or event. But what if
this wasn't a short-term goal? What if it is the beginning of a lifelong journey
toward better health and overall well-being?
​
KB Kickstart – is a 6-week small group kettlebell training program designed for women in midlife and beyond. Over the six weeks, we’ll gradually develop a stability, strength, and power, and build up to doing the Kettlebell Swing and Turkish Get Up. What you learn during these 6-weeks will lay the groundwork for getting and staying strong. This might just be the spark that ignites a passion for training for life.
​
This is also your chance to learn new skills and have fun with like-minded women of similar age and improve your strength, power, and athleticism while doing it. That’s right – if efficient, fun, impactful, powerful, confidence, and social are words you’d like to associate with exercise, come join us.

Before the first Live Team Training Session, you’ll complete the forms, the movement screen/assessment, and become acquainted with the Trainerize App.
From the first Live Team Session on, we’ll gradually build the skills to become proficient and confident in the Kettlebell Swing (or Reset Swing) and the Turkish Get Up. Along the way, we’ll sprinkle in additional exercises that carry over to these two powerful exercises. Between Live Team Sessions, you’ll use Trainerize to practice for 30 minutes on your once or twice weekly. You’ll also submit weekly videos to me for feedback on form.
What Clients Are Saying!
"Building strength and stability was my goal when I signed up for Tara's KB Kickstart class. Unlike other group classes, Tara breaks down kettlebell techniques in a way that’s easy to understand while always ensuring proper form for everybody, making the workouts both safe and effective. After just six sessions, the entire class was able to complete a full Turkish get-up—an incredibly challenging yet rewarding experience. More importantly, I’ve gained strength and a deeper understanding of weightlifting thanks to her coaching! "

"I joined KB Kickstart because I had been looking for a weight class to improve my strength. I am 59 and have osteopenia. Doctors keep telling me it is more important as we get older for women to do weightbearing exercises. This class offered a convenient solution that is designed specifically for women over 50.I was very impressed by Tara’s expertise. Her careful, step by step instruction and demonstrations and individualized feedback were extremely helpful. I enjoyed learning something new and saw a marked
improvement each week. I now feel confident that I can build strength in a safe, fun manner. I strongly recommend it for anyone interested in learning the proper technique for working with kettlebells. I am looking forward to taking more classes that will build on this introductory one. "

"I approached Kettlebells with some interest and some trepidation. I was recently diagnosed with
osteoporosis (so I knew I had to do something with weights) but I also found the prospect daunting. I knew Tara to be thorough and patient and so I threw caution to the wind and signed up for her KB Kickstart
class. Fortunately, Tara did NOT throw caution to the wind — everything we learned in this 6-week class
was built up incrementally.
While I was in class with some folks with some weight training background, I was never made to feel uncomfortable, and it was always clear that Tara was meeting each of us “where we were.” So, let me say, it’s fun to swing a Kettlebell! It’s exhilarating! In stasis, they’re heavy. But, with your body engaged, and using your muscles correctly, you can make those weights move. I felt, and now believe in the benefit of llifting weights!
Tara began the class at zero — assuming we all knew nothing, but quickly tuned into our individual progress . . . especially helpful was the feedback Tara provided when we sent her videos of ourselves. Tara is incredibly detail-oriented, resourceful, thorough and hard-working. You can feel how hard she’s rooting for each of us to learn. I went from zero to swinging kettlebells and somehow managed what felt like the impossible task of learning the Turkish Get-up!
If you’re remotely intrigued, try it! Tara makes it possible to venture into unknown territory without fear and it’s clear how much she believes in (and embodies) the benefits of weight-training!"

Hi, I'm Tara,
Over the years, my clients and I have used all kinds of equipment: dumbbells, kettlebells, TRX, barbells, rowers, assault bikes, and more. The more I honed my skills, developed knowledge and technique ,and experienced results, the more my passion for kettlebells has grown.
The kettlebell is unmatched in its ability to train for strength, power, mobility, stability, and cardiovascular fitness with minimal time and equipment. As a midlife woman, these are the qualities that allow me to lead an active life in a strong and resilient body. As a mother, entrepreneur, and caregiver life is busy – a few kettlebells and a bit of time hits multiple muscle groups, boosts energy, and burns calories. If those reasons aren’t enough, swinging kettlebells and doing Turkish Get Ups make me feel strong, powerful, and just plain awesome. I bet you’ll feel the same.
Staying active and strong is critical to aging well. Kettlebell training is not only great for building lean muscle and burning fat but also for improving mental clarity, balance, coordination, and joint health—all key considerations as we age. It’s time to redefine what aging looks and feels like. Are you in?
