I signed up for Jason's kettlebell 1 class and I am so glad that I did! I have never been real crazy about working out, but now I love it and I owe that to Jason. He is a wonderful instructor and is very knowledgeable. I have gained strength and my balance has improved tremendously. I highly recommend Jason to anyone who is looking to have a healthier, happier life. Thanks, Jason!

I worked with Jason for 5 weeks and would probably be working with him still if I hadn't moved to Australia. His classes are like a support group for "movement enthusiasts". I had been kettlebelling on my own for about half a year before meeting Jason and it was awesome having a full-timer who I could talk to. His level of energy was always high and he approached every class with a sense of humor. His expertise really goes far beyond kettlebells; each class we would do quite a number of Z-health movements to loosen up and cool down. He really is terrific to work with.

I found J here at Dragon Door and ask him if he could help me with my form. We have been working out at the park down the street for a few sessions and I have learned more than I thought I would ever learn. I was looking towards the KB workouts but I have learned so much more!! He is working with me on mobility something I never thought about. I HIGHLY recommend J to anyone in Denver who is looking to change their life path because working with him is more than just getting back in shape. He adds the increase in lifestyle that will come with beeing inshape to the whole package with the mobility work.

I started taking kettlebell classes with Jason one year ago. I am a pretty fit person and have always exercised in some form or another, mostly with team sports. I found kettlebell to be totally invigorating to my workouts and my motivation. Jason's explanations were direct and easy to follow, and his demonstrations were always in perfect form. I continue to practice with kettlebells and tell as many people as I can about its benefits.

My name is Darryl Lardizabal CPT,CES,PES, USAW Sports Performance Coach, and Z-Health R,I,S,T Sports Performance Specialist and have been around the block so to speak, working with several trainers, doctors, physiologists, etc, and not many who I feel are "with it" in terms of knowledge and practical application of what makes the body really tick.

I met Jason at both Level 2 and Level 4 Z-Health certifications and really spent some time talking to him about what makes his training tick, and not only does he make training fun (we had a blast throwing around kettlebells), but brings on the technical expertise to go with it. I've watched him training clients and had tips from him that saved me months of learning on my own.

Next time I'm back in Colorado, I'm planning to give him a visit, because he's not just a good trainer, but a good friend!

Watch out now!

I thought that the class was fun and challenging. I Not only got stronger I shaved 14 seconds off my 500 freestyle during my high school season. Kettlebells rock !! Thanks Jason

I would recommend this instructor because of his ability to modify the exercises to meet my needs. Even though I have a bum-knee, I'm able to improve my strength. That's really important to me at my age and stage in life, to save my bones. Jason keeps it interesting by introducing a variety of kettlebell moves in combination with the Z-Health work. I'm energized and inspired by the growth I've achieved under Jason's capable instruction, especially after sitting at a desk all day!

Jason Wood's Kettlebell-I class has been an incredibly rewarding experience. In my line of work as a pastry chef I consume thousands of calories daily, and the aerobic fitness has helped me to maintain a healthy weight. In 5 weeks I have gained strength and coordination that has improved my quality of life. I have enlisted two friends to participate in class with me, and their results are the same, if not greater than mine. I would recommend this class to everyone!

I originally heard about this class through Jason, as well as through the WR Rec Center. Originally I wanted to take this class to increase strength, stay lean, and develop different types of speed skills. From this program I have lost about 2lbs and I have decreased my body fat% by 2 1/2%. I have increased my strength by about 15-20 pounds per exercise when I'm in the gym. I've been through basic training with the Navy and kettlebells training was much more difficult and effective than there training was. I have never experienced such rapid results as I have with this. I've discovered that my range of motion far greater in my shoulders than it ever has been and I am now able to touch my toes where as before I wasn't.

Jason made the learning process extremely comfortable and easy. He teaches different moves, such as Turkish getup, in stages, focusing on proper form so that you receive maximum results. On of the best parts about his teaching style is that he is focused on pushing your abilities to the limit, while reducing pain, and preventing personal injury. Z Health is amazing in terms how it works only with your bodies "wiring." It seems that your body will instantly become more flexible, without stretching, by simply lubricating your joints with Z Health.

The class was absolutely fantastic and that is why I'm taking it again. I'm looking forward to seeing how kettlebells and Z health will affect my performance as an athlete.

I was looking for something to increase speed, change overall body composition, and to decrease the chance of injury. I am a competitive Roller-Derby player, and wanted to improve all aspects of my sport. I signed up during the off-season to get in shape and prepare me for the season. I have had a great experience with Jason's kettlebell and Z-Health classes that I have signed up again to keep the results coming. It is such a different approach and Jason has been a big part of it. He pushes me to try harder and work on technique. I laugh that I don't feel it during the workout, but the next day is killer!

I have been working out for most of my adult life, typically 3-5 hours a week, without ever seeing much change in my body. After five weeks of kettlebells, I feel stronger, leaner, and much more fit! I have tried every workout and have never had this much fun. Not to mention great results! I have increased flexibility and reduced joint pain.

Watch out...it's addicting!

Jason teaches a great class! He includes a great mix of training and discussion of body mechanics and movement. I have learned a lot and have increased in both strength and flexibility.

This is definitely a class for everyone! I like the way Jason pushes you to do more and recognizes when you're done and had enough.

I lost approximately 7 lbs over the duration of the Jason kettlebell class. I believe I have less cramps in the foot and legs. I feel healthier and better about myself after taking this class. My ADL's as a musician seem to be more fluid and smooth as a results of Jason's education and knowledge about the body and muscles. As a newcomer to kettlebells and fitness classes in general, I think the class was fun and what I liked most was how everyone else made me feel. Great class, great fun and great job Jason I am hooked.

I've been working out with Jason twice a week for over a year. I've been able to run/bike/hike faster and farther and I never get sore. Kettlebells definitely work. Improvements in core strength and flexibility are amazing. I would recommend Jason to anyone of any age that is interested in increased strength and movement without having to commit alot of time to working out.

I have been training with kettlebells with Jason for almost a year now, and I'll never go back to traditional weight lifting again. The results have been amazing. Jason keeps his classes fun by always adding new things. I have never seen a trainer more passionate about what he does.

I would highly recommend Jason to anyone looking to get in shape and see results. His combination of Z-Health and Kettlebell as well as attention to detail result in a highly effective workout. I saw more results from a few months of training with him than I did from 5 months of intense triathlon training. I still have a ways to go to meet my overall goals, and I plan on having kettlebells as part of my workout to get me there.

Jason is much more than a trainer. He is a coach that will help you get to where you need to be. During his sessions you do work out, but he is always teaching you and adding things for each individual as well that will help them get exactly what they need. I enjoyed his teaching style too,he isn't mean but isn't gentle either, he is just enough of what anyone needs. A true Guru and great to learn from and work with. Thanks Jason.

I had the privilege of meeting Jason at a Z-health certification last year. Jason helped me organize a program for my kettlebell studio that included z-health with kettlebell. I have used the program with much success ever since. He has a wonderful sense of humor which makes him fun to work with.

Jason also took away an elbow problem that I was having during presses, which was very helpful, and I have gained strength with my new ability to press.

I would highly recommend Jason to anyone invested in having a good time, feeling great and getting fit.

Thank you Jason!

jason is an awesome instructor because he honestly loves what he does and he passes that enthusiasm on to his students. he is always ready to give advice and help you with your form, etc. even if you are not in class. if you are looking for someone who is really interested in you succeeding on the highest level possible jason is the kettlebell instructor for you.

I took Jason's Intro to Kettlebells class earlier this year. Due to my work schedule, I can't be a regular student of his. But today I was in the gym and he saw me working out. He took some time to critique my workout and offered some advice as well as taught me some new moves. He also gave me permission to use the kettlebells that he has in a back office so I don't have to lug my own to the gym. Thanks, Jason!

Jason is a great instructor and really knows his stuff. I thought I was in good shape and had good technique, so I called Jason for some fine tuning before I went to my RKC certification. I had so much to learn! Jason did a great job of pushing me in every way- polishing my work, correcting mistakes, pushing my conditioning, and saving my hands. In addition, he taught me some great Z-Health drills to keep me limber, relaxed, and strong. I couldn't reccommend him more!

I arranged a 1 on 1 training session with Jason after meeting him on the Dragondoor forum. I must say I am not usually one to seek out a trainer but typically buy the dvd, book, etc. and figure things out on my own. I've been doing that with KB's for 4-5 months now with ETK and Superjoints and Resilient dvd's (all of which are excellent). However, after just one session with Jason I have to say it was worth every penny. Jason's depth of knowledge both as an RKC and Zhealth instructor was amazing. Before even picking up a KB, he had that nagging knee and shoulder pain pretty much gone. I'm not sure if this makes sense but I just felt like I was moving better all from working through specific joint mobility Zhealth drills. I've since received and begun working through the R phase program at home but don't think it would have made as much sense if I hadn't worked with Jason. Then we pulled out the KB and within minutes my swing felt crisper and sharper and just generally better. Little things that seemed to hurt with the swing were gone under his sharp eye. My TGU form was much farther off of what it needed to be and probably contributing to some of my nagging pains. He was very patient in working me through the drill from bottom to top and back again. Now I feel more confident and stable as I'm working my TGU's. His attention to detail and level of expertise were mind boggling. I am not a professional or even amateur athlete in any sense of the word. I'm a 40 y/o working dad who really just wants to keep up with his kids without killing myself and yet working with Jason I felt like his interest in my success was no less than if he was working with a professional athlete. Again, Jason's attention to detail, knowledge base and depth and passion for what he does are second to none in my book. The books & DVD's I have from Dragondoor and Zhealth are definitely excellent resources, but now they are making more sense. It's like I now have the context to really understand what they are teaching. If you're anywhere near Denver, CO schedule a session with Jason. I drove over an hour to meet with him and haven't second-guessed that decision for a minute. Thanks so much Jason.

I came to the Jason's Kettlebell 1 class for two reasons: One was to learn proper form using Kettlebells and two was to learn the whys and how Kettlebells differ from other weight training. I believe I got both. As a person with coaching experience myself, I could appreciate how well Jason was presenting the material. As someone who has participated in fairly consistent strength and conditioning for the past 30 years I could tell Jason knew his stuff even and opened me up to some new stuff has well. Even when I disagreed with some of the stuff he taught, I always was able to understand his point of view and the concept he was presenting. Jason also broke down some very difficult movements into easy to master segments.All of these things will make continue using Kettlebells simple and effective

I have just finished a five-week beginning kettlebell class after working with Jason as a personal trainer for five weeks. I went to Jason because I was getting NO results using treadmills, weights, etc. I felt I had tried everything and was getting bigger. And, I was hurting in my shoulders! I bought into the "correct" shoes, which as it turned out, were totally wrong for me and part of the problem not part of the solution. I started with Jason and the first thing he said was "get rid of those shoes"! Since he explained everything to me first instead of just telling me what to do, I was able to understand why I should do the specific movements and why I should change shoes (which I have done and it's made a huge difference). This information and Jason's patience made a big difference in the results and in my motivation to do my homework and continue in the kettlebell exercise process. In the five weeks of personal training, I dropped a clothing size and was not experiencing nearly the frustration of keeping the weight off and even continuing to drop a few pounds. With the Z Exercise, I was able to start lifting my arms over my head which had not been the case when I started the personal training because my shoulder joints were always hurting. I have found the Kettlebell classes to be terrific for overall wellness in terms of strength and cardio. I'm feeling better and using every muscle in my body!!! I am telling more people about Jason's Z Health and kettlebells and trying to get them off of what I now know are detrimental training practices. I will be starting Kettlebell boot camp classes in a week -- in the meantime, I am going for walks in my flat, flexible shoes. Jason did a great job in the beginning class that I just finished. We had people who were really at all different levels of fitness and Jason was able to give each of us the attention needed for our respective level of ability. Jason was always cognizant of the safety issues and, not only corrected the safety lapse, but told us how to remedy the move and how we could be injured from the safety lapse. I wish I had met Jason sooner for not only the kettlebell classes but for the Z Health. During my life outside of class, I find myself using the Z Health drills for overall well being. Good job Jason! Keep up the good work and I will continue to tell people about Z Health and Kettlebells!

The results I experienced at the end of this class were achieved because Jason pushed us all to an extent I didn't feel I personally was capable of achieving when I first started. I'm 77 years old, inherited great genes, so I feel this gives me an excellent start on my own program to achieve a level of good fitness that I can apply to tennis and golf using kettlebells and the Z Health DVD's.

Jason's Kettlebell and Z Health workshop was a awesome,fun, and Informative. He interacted well with students and the class feel like a team. I look forward to learning more about training with Russian Kettlebells soon. Thanks for the workshop Jason.

Considering the different age and fitness level. Jason Kettlebell workshop was has good has it could of been. Kettlebell training seems practical for increasing full range of motion. I had a great time at the workshop

Jason has been my personal trainer for over 16 months. I have developed arm strength that I never had before because of his knowledge of kettlebells. He is willing to listen and help when I have a problem with a specific exercise. I enjoy the Z-health drills as I can do many of them before a golf game.

I enjoyed Jason as a personal trainer and then as a class instructor. He has a way of pushing for a person's best - he knew what I could do long before I did. It is evident that Jason loves what he does and he is eager to share his expertise. Thanks, Jason!

I have been overweight my entire life and always DESPISED exercise classes. Jason's Kettlebell class is truly the only class of it's kind that I have ever enjoyed.

I have grown substantially stronger it the 5 weeks I've been taking the class and more confidence in my physical ability. Jason is an excellent teacher whose commitment to keeping us safe in class was exemplary. He gave us more individual attention then I've ever received in other classes.

Jason also has this sense of humor about him that makes people in his class feel more like friends then some stranger standing next to you. Very supportive, very fun and very effective.
Thanks Jwood see you next class

I am stunned at the speed with which KB's created big improvements in my body. I learned how to recruit the larger muscles in my body my hips have never felt stronger. Near life long issues with my back have disappeared in only 3-4 weeks.

Being a Feldenkrais practitioner and movement teacher for over 13 years. I appreciated Jason's clarity of teaching new and complex skills. His integration of Z health makes learning kettlebells go faster and greatly decrease the chance of injury. I recommended Jason Class to my 77 year old father, who was in my class and experienced similar results. Kettlebells are for everyone.

Using Kettlebells under the instruction of Jason has been a great experience. My lower back and hernia condition where not effected at all and Jason made sure I never over did it. Being one of the older students it was nice to know I was in good hands. I never felt I was treated like I could not do something because of my age(77). This class also was a great combination of aerobic and strength training. I only wish I had stared this 30 years ago. Better late then never though.

Ok, so it is 9:05pm in Denver, CO and I'm chilling in the airport waiting to go home. Five days ago, I made my way to this beautiful city to train with the one and only, JWood (a.k.a. Jason Wood from How do you move.com). What a learning experience!

We started Thursday off with Jason's private clients at 5:45am and continued on until we finished around 9:00pm that night. What a day! And what a trainer!
I watched as Jason interacted with his clients, teaching them Z-Health and Kettlebells. I was amazed at how well he was able to teach them movement drills and how important follow-up homework for the client really is.

And you know what the best part is? Not a single client of Jason's has any pain! He has been able to help an individual sleep through the night who hasn't had a full nights sleep in over a year. And he helped her to do this in only two weeks! Amazing right?!

Jason not only helped me clear up some of my own questions about Z-Health and the RKC, but gave me a better understanding on how these tow systems work and just how amazing they really are! I have so many new ideas and ways to incorporate the program into my clients' routines that I can't wait to get started.

He was also able to teach me some key points to look for with my own clients, and how to be a better individual personally and professionally. I leave my experience with Jason to be uplifting and insightful, and I would highly recommend anyone take the time to work with him!

I continued to take Kettlebell. I have high blood pressure. I was never into salty foods or TV dinners and the high pressure was found to be a genetic issue. I was put on medication. I stared training for a half marathon and did the Horsetooth Half in Fort Collins and my blood pressure didn't move. After 3 weeks of kettlebell level 2, my blood pressure went down 20 points! Maybe some day I can come off these meds. Thanks Jason!

I recently started taking kettlebell classes with Jason Wood. I was only a little interested when his classes first started but after a few, I realized I was accomplishing the best performance goals of my life. I am a competitive cyclist and the improvement I've seen in my biking abilities has been far beyond my expectations. I would highly reccomend him as an instructor!

Jay is one of the best kettlebell instructors I know.

His depth of knowledge of kettlebell training is immense, and Jay is really an expert on human movement at a level that most trainers will never reach.

I strongly recommend Jay Wood. I feel really fortunate to be friends with Jay, and I know I learn something about training every time I hang out with him

The combination of Kettlebells and Z health has changed my life. Jason does an excellent job at mixing exercise and drills that complement each other in order to produce a killer workout that address muscular strength , pain relief and cardiovascular fitness. One of the biggest improvements I have noticed is the pain I used to get in my calves and lower back when I used to run is gone. After taking his level 2 kettlebell class I completed my best time ever in the Boulder Boulder 10k race...pain free. The classes also build great comradery amongst other students keeping things interesting and fun. Jason continues to be an excellent and fun Kettlebell instructor and think everyone would benefit from training with him. Thanks again Jason Keep it up

Jason's Kettlebell class has helped me in more ways then I thought it would when I signed up for his 5 week beginner class. Having a physically demanding job left me with a hurt back and weak core. Jason showed me the skills I need to decrease my back pain and increase my movement quality. After 5 weeks of daily Z health and 2 days a week of Kettlebell swings and Turkish get ups my back feels great and I can sleep through the night. Jason was great with each students individual needs and I felt totally conformable learning kettlebells form him, and best of all I can sleep through the night.

I signed up for Jason's level 1 Kettlebell class to improve my physical fitness and strength. To my surprise my nagging shoulder pain has disappeared and my carpal tunnel is so much better. I can now do things I was unable to do. The class was fun and filled with people with different backgrounds all working hard together. Jason's classes are hard, but well worth the effort.

Jason Wood infuses the class with an electrifying energy unlike any other. His blended style of drill-sergeant and stand-up comic transforms an intense work-out into an enjoyable event.
His knowledge of kettle bell training is outstanding, and his enthusiastic approach is motivational. Jason is aware of everyone's individual needs and tailors the program to maximize each persons workout.
My personal progress is fantastic,and Jason is an absolutely stellar instructor.

After a serious cycling accident a couple of years ago I was told never to cycle again. I have been able to ride again since then but minimally and always with pain. After training with Jason and Kettlebells I can not only ride pain free, but my position is where it is was pre-accident. Jason runs a well designed class and is more fun then I have ever had getting in shape. I highly recommend training with Jason.

When registering for Kettlebell 1 I was looking for a workout to replace traditional weight training. After the first class it was apparent the Kettlebells and HARDSTYLE was the way to go. Jason's no fluff approach to teaching and constant focus for improvement is unmatched. After 3 weeks of training I passed my CPAT fire fighters test with ease, I was even able to snatch a 53lb KB for 100 reps in 5 min. I have recommend Jason and Kettlebells to all of my friends. I cannot wait to learn more drills.

I have worked with Kettlebells for over a year following one of Pavel's videos. I joined Jason's class to gain advancement in my Kettlebell ability. Jason's combination of Z health and Kettlebells made the whole 5 weeks an excellent experience. He knows how to instruct in a way that pushes you to your max yet, never goes over the line. I will be taking Kettlebell II and make sure I tell me friends about the benefits of Jason's class and how well Kettlebells work

Jason's 5 week Level 1 Kettlebell class helped me gain strength,endurance and flexibility. The classes progressed well and we never moved on for the sake of moving on. I found to be very knowledge and helpful on all things fitness. I look forward to more classes

I made some pretty amazing changes in Jason's 5 week Kettlebell class. I gained muscle tone, lost 1 1/2 inches in bust, 2 inches in waist and another 1 1/2 in hips without really changing my diet. Jason showed correct form and would "punish" us he we fell out of it. I am glad i found Kettlebells and Jason. I also ran a 5k with much training.

recently had the privilege of training one afternoon with RKC and Z-Health instructors Jason Wood and Brian Copeland. As an Olympic-style weightlifter with national-level competition under my belt, I was already strong and flexible, but these men and their expert techniques helped spot some significant areas for improvement in my squat. The importance of this insight cannot be overstated, as the squat movement is at the heart of every Olympic-style lift. Within a few minutes of analysis they were able to spot one leg bowing in towards my center, and a few Z-health techniques later, I was able to feel the joints loosening. Under their instruction I reached the point where it was like a light flipped on in my nervous system, and I said, "Aha!" and realized what I'd been doing wrong all this time. They were able to recommend movement patterns and related drills that will undoubtedly be of great benefit in the future of my training, for both greater strength and healthier knee joints. I highly recommend Jason Wood for learning how kettlebell and Z-health methods can and will work for you.

Jason has my full endorsement. He taught a great intro class about something I knew nothing about. He blends great energy/attitude and explanation of Kettlebell Philosophy along with straight forward talk about fitness and other methods of exercise. Excellent workshop

What I liked about Jason's Kettlebell workshop was that anyone could do it, even if you are over weight,out of shape and have back problems. It was a great alternative to machines or mundane workouts. over all it was a great class

Jason is a super efficient and effective kettlebell teacher. He is straight to the point style and gives feedback when needed. Jason will be seeing more of me.

Jason's great personality makes him a great instructor. Jason's Kettlebell 1 workshop was was harder than I thought. Jason believes 100% in what he does. The only problem I had was the hard wood flood the class was taught on.

Jason is a very good instructor who knows his subject( Kettlebells) and goes at the learning pace of the entire class. When asked what improvements I would have made I could not think of any. His workshop was a very good intro.

Being in the fitness industry for over a decade I thought I had a good grasp on body mechanics and exercise training, boy was I wrong. I just attended Jason's Level 1 Kettlebell workshop, and what an eye opener it was. I learned more about my body and its limits in the 2 hours I worked with him than from years of weight training. I now not only know what I am capable I fell like I have a better understanding of the benefits of Kettlebells and plain on seeking more training.

When I first heard of Jason's Introduction to Kettlebell class, I knew I had to sign up. I had only a brief understanding of the benefits to Kettlebell lifting prior to the class. Now after 5 weeks I not only feel great and in shape, but I know feel comfortable using Kettlebells on my own. Jason's class taught me how to use my body and how to lift the way I should for my body type. I think everyone should train with Jason if they get the chance.

I was a flabby mess 6 months after giving birth. So, I turned to Jason for help. In 3 months time, I have lost 20 lbs and carved muscles out of what was once just pudge. I'm feeling great and looking fabulous. My energy levels are higher than ever. His programs are simple and straightforward and the results are undeniable. I look forward to continuing training with Mr. Wood.

Jason's Introduction to Kettlebell class was a great blend of Z Health, Kettlebell Mechanics and proper progression. I thoroughly enjoyed the class and feel comfortable to do the exercises at home. His knowledge across general health and fitness, along with Kettlebells made the class exceed expectations I had. The collective feedback and encouragement really makes Jason a great value to learning the skills of Kettlebell lifting from. Thanks Jason See you next time

I would highly recommend Jason if you are just beginning to take an interest in kettlebells. His instructional methods keep the class fun and challenging for all levels. The pointers he provides to individuals while the whole class is working on a drill allow you to progress from wherever your ability started.

Jason's passion was obvious from the start of the class. I really appreciated his willingness to give all to your students. It is apparent that your truly want the best outcome for the participates.

Jason did an excellent job at teaching a class with so many different levels of students. He spent individual time with everyone on their technique while keeping the class moving forward. Jason also did a great job analyzing peoples form and giving them tips on how to correct it without giving up on them. I had no problem staying motivated because it was fun and results oriented. Thanks Jason see you in the next class.

Jason was very well informed and a dynamic instructor. The class was challenging and I learned so much from his style and am looking forward to learning more during his next class. I noticed a mark improvement in my strength and endurance not only in the class but in my daily life. Kettlebells rock!! I cannot wait to learn more about them from Jason

The first thing I noticed with Jason is he pays so much attention to detail. Especially your form, it really makes all the difference. His class has been a blast! I would definitley sign up again soon!

Jason communicated well. He took time to explain each drill and let us go at our our pace has needed. He also gave us indivdual drills to fix our weak points. over all jason taught a well paced and fun class. I look forward to more

I came to Jason's class wanting something new to add to my off-season training as a cyclist. I got way more than I expected. With the combination of kettlebell's and Z-Health, I am stronger, more flexible and feel great on the bike. Jason gave the me "tools" necessary to continue training at home.

I liked how Jason demonstrated everything we did multiple times. He was funny at the right times, and gave specific suggestions on how I could do better. The class size was perfect

Jason is such a top notch instructor that I decided to take his Introduction Kettlebells class again. His class helped me improve my form and get a much better workout than I could on my own.

Overall the Intro to Kettlebell class Jason taught was great. I was impressed with the results and the job Jason did with the instruction

I have been a massage therapist for 20 years and specialize in rehabilitation work. Jason's insight and knowledge was excellent. Due to my injuries I have problems with martial arts and ROM. I have responded excellently to this type of training and will continue. He will also receive referrals from my clinic and I will talk to other health care providers about about his expertise in this field

Jason is a fun instructor who keeps it interesting. He is always trying to help individuals be their best. Whether it is spending extra time with someone who is having pain or encouraging someone to do their max. RKB is a great workout and I am glad to have found an enthusiastic instructor to learn it from.

Jason has the unique ability to motivate people to enjoy exercise. I never liked working out and could on one hand count how many times I have been to a gym. When Jason introduced me to kettlebells all that changed, It stated at a workshop and ended up with me buying a full set. I cannot believe how strong I have become in such a sort amount of time. Jason made me realize the Benefits of Strength training and Kettlebells. Thank You Jason

As a Fitness trainer, I was introduced to Kettlebells at a training seminar 2 years ago. I started seeking instructors in my area and was introduced to Jason. He was training for the RKC at the time and worked with me on basic KB exercises.

I have since taken many classes and workshops to become proficient with Kettlebells and incorporate them into my training sessions with clients and athletes.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Jason when he came home for the holidays and was extremely impressed with how far he has come in the past 2 years. His method of instruction and patience is 2nd to none and he definitely surpassed my expectations.

As a professional in the industry, I can say, without hesitation, that I recommend working with Jason Wood, You will not be disappointed!

Jason has been a great trainer. He introduced me to the kettle bell and now I am hooked. I saw great results in a small amount of time. I took his introductory kettle bell class and I am anxiously awaiting the next class to start in January. I highly recommend Jason as a trainer.

Jason was my RKC team partner and just like an amazing trainer should, he pushed me everyday beyond my perceived limits. Here I am now one year later in Denver CO finishing another great workout with him. Jason has exceeded his prior knowledge and potential as an RKC. I am proud to not only have Jason as a resource for my own training but also as a friend! I highly recommend Jason to anyone looking for REAL change!

Jason is accommodating three women in a "personal training" environment after we learned of Russion Kettle Bells in CA and sought him out. Five sessions in, all three of us have signed up for his beginning RKB class. His insistence on good form and skills keeps us coming back for more. He is slowly convincing me that an hour with RKB is a better work out and better for me than a run. His included Z Health instruction is also making me a believer!

I just finished a 1 1/2 hour class with jason. It was great. He explained how to do the exercise and why form was so important.
He is a good teacher.

Jason had great energy and was very thorugh in his explainations. I would have liked more time, perhaps some more demo so I could take notes. Iam afraid I won't remember some it(or all of it). Thank you very much.

Jason is great. As a personal trainer I loved his clear instruction, his energy and his style. He was very helpful with keeping by body tight and in line. I reallyed enjoed his training very much.

After tearing my ACL in December I contacted the only person I know to be able to speed up my recovery. That person was my brother Jason, Jason was able to distinguish between me as his little sister and me as a client. With real goals. Jason found many muscular imbalances's that my soccer and softball coaches were unable to see. Now as an SSgt in the ROTC and getting ready to enter the Air Force academy the exercises he had me do had made me able to continue to make gains in my strengths and condition programs

It's been almost a year since I had the pleasure to train with Jason in CT. I found out that he will be in CT for a week in December. I took this apportunity to schedule another session, hour of Z and KBs. During the training session Jason blew me away with his increased knowledge, keen eye on technique, and ability to effectively correct and teach. Will use what I've learned to improve my performance and prepare myself to become a RKC in 2009.

Jason is a true professional instructor/personal trainer with a dedication to his clients, desire for growth as a trainer, and is very enthusiastic. If you want to improve your performance, become stronger or get in great shape do not hesitate to train with Jason.

Jason is an awesome trainer. When you want or are about to give up he gives you the extra push we all need sometimes to finish the task/or set of reps. that you swear are going to kill you. Afterwards I have experienced a sense of total accomplishment even on a bad day. Would highly recommend this regimne of excersize to anyone.

Our whole family has known Jason as a personal trainer for years. It has truly been a Family involvement which evolved for each of us due to his progressive interests in the training field regarding movement performance and enhancement. It began with the typical desires to improve overall personal performance and wellbeing and went into rehab needs body awareness and motivation for our teenage preteen girls. Jason is truly a professional at all that he does. His knowledge and desire to improve himself leads him to the excellent resource he is to any client he comes into contact with today. Besides he is a fun guy to know

Been working with Jason for two weeks and i have lost 10 pounds and i am seeing result with my body that working out at the gym with free wieghts and running machine for a year could not do match the results that he is helping me with. I referee Ice Hockey and play mens league hockey. I can not believe how much better i feel after a game that i ref or play in. After reffing or playing i would have to go to my Chiropractor for adjustment and since Jason, the Z-health and Kettlebell training i have no need for the Chiropractor. Jason is great instructor and i recommend him to everybody!!!!!!

I was fortunate enough to have Jason as an instructor at the October 2008 RKC. Jason is a fabulous instructor! He is very thorough and patient with people of all ability levels. Jason was very encouraging and helped me to excel and pass my certification. I would recommend Jason to anyone.

I have trained with free weights for a number of years, but in just a few weeks Jason showed me how to improve my strength and flexibility with kettleball. He is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic and pushes each class member to excel and improve. I look forward to his leading another class soon.

Jason's Kettlebell and Zhealth knowledge has really improved my workouts. He is an excellent instructor that I would recommend to anyone!

I served in the Marine Corps for six years and am currently a Police Officer. I have been through Marine boot camp, Marine combat training, Marine Corps Martial Arts Program, and I am also a self defense instructor. With all my training experience I have not met anyone better than Jason at getting you in shape. Jason's no nonsense approach, work smarter than harder, along with his vibrant personality makes him an excellent personal trainer and Kettlebell Instructor. Jason can put a great program together for the beginner or professional athlete. His teaching style of Kettlebells and Z health have greatly improved my workouts. I would recommend Jason to anyone!

Jason is very understanding when his students are not able to sustain or able to do some exercises, he gave me some alternatives that keep me feeling good and getting strong. Jason is very enthusiastic and helpful and always encouraging. My wife and I look forward to more of Jasons classes and training

Awesome intro to kettlebell classes. Not being a huge exercise fanatic prior, this was a fun way to exercise. I have gained a lot from this class and from Jason.

An accident at work left me with a torn quad tendon in my left leg. After my rehab I started training with Jason and Kettlebells.His enthusiams and knowledge as an
instructor helped me get back in shape,I will forever be greatful.

Jason Wood is a fun and passionate kettlebell instructor. He loves what he does and you can see it and feel it in the way he talks and teaches. Jason's blunt, honest and goofy "east-coast" personality meshes perfectly with his approach to teaching kettlebells. I mean, would the guy have this many testimonials if his clients didn't love him? Jason's outside of the box thinking allows him to help his clients get out of pain and get into shape!

I have been figure skating for about 18 years so my legs are my strongest part of my body. With weight trainging bulked them up and really no explotion with my hips that I need for jumps and spins, but with the kettebell has made me aware of the power and srengh in my legs and hips. Jason is deffenetly passionate about what he does and knows how to make anyone feel good about working out each time.

Jason is an awesome kettlebell instructor. He is obviously very educated in his field. He is enthusiastic about sharing his knowledge with his students and pushing them beyond the limits that they have set for themselves. He's great at leading a group class and giving everyone individual attention at the same time. I am very excited by the results I have seen in my strength and muscle definition in just a few weeks by taking his class. I even burned fat without a boring diet for once.

Jason is a great Kettlebell instructor,he takes the time to make sure everyone learns how kettlebells will benefit them. Iam amazed at how much stronger I've gotton the last 2 months just by doing kettlebells twice a week. I strongly recommened Jason as a Kettlebell Instructor Jason rocks two thumbs up!!

Jason brings enthusiasm to his classes ehich is infectious. His class was my first real experience with weights, the Kettlebell exercises made it fun to go to class and the strength benefits were immediate

Jason is very enthusiastic about the benefits of Kettlebells . He is knowledgeable. He promised results and results where achieved. this is a workout you do not want to miss

I appreciated his postive feed back in class. I also appreciated him giving individual attention to everyone, you his ability to modify a routine to meet individual needs. Even though I was unable to do some parts of the program, I am stronger than when I started. An indication of my enjoyment of the class is that I tried to sell Madame Butterfly opera tickets in order to attend his class. Thanks Jason

I did not know anything about kettlebells and Jason was a great instructor. He is very knowledgeable and has contagious enthusiasim. He pays close attention to form to prevent injury. I look forward to more classes

Jason is the most motivating instructor that I have trained with. Prior to working out with Jason I had gained weight and was feeling very sluggish. His workout sessions increased my energy level and I actually looked forward to exercising. The kettlebells added definition to my arms and abs. My husband and son also benefitted from the kettlebell training. I highly recommend this workout for anyone who is looking to have fun while toning up.

Jason is a great instructor, he really knows what he is talking about it and is helpful in training for all types of people. I am a volleyball player and I trained with Kettlebells during the season. I saw a great improvement on my jumping ability and height after just one session of training with the kettlebells. These are great training tools and I would reccommend Jason to anyone wanting to get a different type of workout that makes you feel great.

Jason is an extremley motivated instructor who has a strong passion to sontinue to grow in his KSAs when it comes to fitness. He has started an explosive kettlebell class here in Wheat Ridge and has single handedly sold it out for the first 4 months. We are getting ready to start a couple new sessions for this class and those look as if they are going to fill up fast as well. If you are looking for someone who will push you to your limits and motivate you to do things you never believed you could do before, this is the instructor for you!! Fantastic person and I look forward to continuing to work with him in the future!!

These are the three words I chose to define Jason Wood. I had the opportunity to have Jason as an assistant coach during my RKC certification course in October 2008. Although Jason was very intense, and hard on his students, he demonstrated great concern for each person in the group. His knowledge in general fitness and kettlebell training allowed him to push us beyond our limits with great common sense and safety! Jason has the ability to instruct a large group, and at the same time focus on each individual and his/her needs. He is also fun to be around and has a great sense of humor and awesome personality. Unfortunately I live too far to continue training with Jason. But I do recommend him to anyone who is serious about getting in the best shape of his life.

I had the opportunity to work with Jason at the October 2008 RKC where we both assisted. Jason was very patient and knowledgeable and also a lot of fun. He is proficient in helping with mobility which leads to better kettlebell lifting. I would recommend Jason to anyone interested in working with bells.

With his true passion and knowledge with KB, Jason has been a great inspiration for me and has had a huge influence on my training methods. With his enthusiasm and "go do it" attitude one can not help but to deliver and strive for the best. Thank you for getting me involved!

I met Jason a few years ago and he had always been an amazing trainer making every workout challenging, as well as an enjoyable experience. As soon as he introduced me to kettlebells, I was HOOKED! He taught me a variety of different exercises on them and how it drastically improved my core strength and more importantly, helped strengthen my lower back to the point where it wouldn't hurt anymore after power lifts such as squatting, deadlifts, and clean and jerk. I used to wrestle and I still workout fairly consistently, so I thought I had good core strength to begin with. Nevertheless, Jason's kettlebell training made a world of difference and I can't stress enough how much it changed me for the better. I Ranging from those of us who only hit the gym on occasion, all the way to well-conditioned athletes, his kettlebell training can still improve you regardless of your condition. I had a well defined mid-section before, but with the kettlebells, it really gets that extra definition in the right places because it's a full body encompassing workout. I didn't even run when I did the kettlebells and I was becoming shredded from just the training itself! Try him out, and you will be in for some of the most interesting, enjoyable, and productive workouts you've ever done!

Jason introduced the kettlebells to me and now they are all I use to train myself and my clients. His expertise is incredible and he always knows exactly what to do to tailor the workout for the individual. Listen to Jay and you will reach your goals, he is not only an amazing instructor and speaker, but also a great motivator and mentor. He makes the workouts fun, educational, and very effective. I highly recommend training with Jay!

I was lucky enough to experience Jason's extensive knowledge of KBs and motivated method of "spreading the word" about the benefits of KB training. He's an exceptional trainer and I would highly recommend him.

At the October 2008 RKC Level 1 Instructor Course, I had the pleasure of learning from a team of incredible RKC Instructors. Jason Wood, stood out as a positive and motivated instructor. As a trainer, I was also impressed with his level of professionalism and his true desire to see all those he worked with be successful. Jason is a true leader and coach. If you ever have the chance to train with him I am sure you will walk away a stronger and better person.

J-Wood is awesome! One of the best teachers I have seen! I have gone through many workouts and have had a lot of coaches and instructors- he motivates and trains very well! Very good- def ++++ Plan on training with him again!

Jason strives to bring the best out in his students. I had the great opportunity to watch his expertise first hand when we were both assistant instructors at the October 2008 RKC. Jasons knowledge and his ability to deliver information to his students is a rare gift. If you have the chance train with Jason, you will not regret it.

Jason is a devoted, extraordinary RKC trainer. He is down-to-earth, friendly and always reassuring me "I can do it" when I insist "I can't." He positively communicates and demonstrates proper techniques and encourages the importance of breathing, visualizing and believing in yourself. Jason puts together exciting, powerful training sessions that are the hardest workouts I've ever experienced and the most rewarding.

My training started in a traditional manner along with Z-Health movements with much success. After only one month Jason introduced me to Russian Kettelbells. My body has never been the same, the fat has melted-off my body in the most delicious way. I can never thank Jason enough for helping me to find my new passion Russian Kettlebells, helping me get the results I wanted (true weight loss of 40 pounds) and getting me into the best shape of my life. Don't hesitate; call Jason now and start getting the results you desire! Your body will be glad you did.

Thanks to Jason, I feel motivated about working out for the first time in my life! I've noticed a big difference in my body after four weeks of Kettlebell training. Jason is a great teacher and continues to challenge me during workouts! I would highly recommend Jason as a trainer because he is not only knowledgeable, but very passionate about you making your life better through Kettlebell workouts!!!! I can't say enough about how he is helping me change my life! Thanks Jason!!!!

I have learned more from Jason in a few short weeks than I have in a lifetime spent pursuing my fitness goals. Not only does he have a great knowledge and passion for Kettlebells he also has the qualities of a great teacher. As a bonus the Z Health moves that he has taught me has had an impact on my over-all well being. I can't thank him enough!

Jason and I assisted together under Ron Morris, RKC Team Leader, at the October, 2008 RKC. We were RKC underlings one year prior in 2007. It was awesome to Jason one year later as a mature and respectable instructor. He takes his training and passion for people very seriously and wants to spread the word to everyone he meets. Jason's enthusiasm for bettering the human body is infectious which makes everyone around him energetic. I would highly recommend Jason and his training services to anyone looking to better themselves, physically and mentally.

Just make sure to take a few shots of espresso before you meet up with Jason so you can keep up! ;-)

At a recent RKC Jason took the time to really help me out. All of the instructors were full of knowledge, but Jason had such passionate teaching ability which really set him apart from the others. I took notice and I listened. With a well rounded background in z-health and functional movement Jason is on pace to become a great leader in the fitness industry. I would advise him of getting involved in speaking events and putting on presentations in near future.

Jason is very knowledgeable about Kettlebells and mobility. He is very good at helping people adopt good form and motivating everyone to workout intensely. Great instructor!

Jason has kept things very interesting for me to say the least. He started training me at a local soccer field with the kettlebells. After about a week we would have an audience. No one has ever seen a cannon ball with handle. I'm a 130lb woman. In 6 months I am doing get ups with a 53lb kettlebell and loving it. My abs are steel now. Thank you Jason for everything !

I thought I was in great shape until Jason introduced kettlebells into our workouts. That's when I learned I had areas on which I needed to work. But with Jason's assistance and the kettlebells, my flexibility and muscular endurance have improved dramatically. These exercises have helped me to become a stronger fire fighter. Not only that, he has also worked with my wife and three daughters who continue to use the kettlebells. Jason has recently moved to Colorado where I know he will be making the same impact on the folks out there. His enthusiasm for kettlebell workouts is definitely contagious!

I just finished an introductory kettlebell class with Jason. He was quite enthusiastic with his teaching and certainly opened my eyes to the value of training with kettlebells.

I had been working with kettlebells for several months before I had the pleasure of training with Jason. During the initial functional movement screening his keen eye caught many subtle flaws which he immediately pointed out. We discussed changes in form which would pay big dividends in function. Based upon his assessment we also talked about exercises that would open up blocked neural pathways and thus improve balance and flexibility.
The subsequent kettlebell session was an eye opener. After just a few repetitions of various exercises he pointed out simple yet critical imperfections that we addressed right away. I am confident that after one session I have made exponential strides. I am looking forward to training with Jason again.

Training with Jason has made me more aware of my body and how strong I can be in less time then I thought possible. After 3 sessions with him I not only feel stonger, but I swear I'm 2 inches taller. Jason's high energy and understanding of bio-mechanics makes him the only person I would go to for current and future kettlebell training... and oh yea, don't let his small frame fool you. He's very strong for his size.

I had the opportunity to train with Jason for the first time and can't wait for our next training session. Jason is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic which makes for a great experience. I would highly recommend him for KB training.

Mr. Wood has been my Instructor since he has received his certification and the increase in my strength and physique is the true testament to his proficiency. I would highly recommend to anyone who is serious about seeing actual results in there strength, conditioning and form to make the time; and put forth the effort to train with Mr. Wood. You will be the better for it.

I had the opportunity to train with Jason several times. His attention to form and technique coupled with his high enthusiasm make him an outstanding kettlebell instructor!

I have been training with J. Wood since he got his certification. He's changed my body in ways that I never thought were possible. My boyfriend can't keep his hands off of me anymore. I find his form to be a perfect example for me to model my own performance after. I highly recomend him as an instructor.

I have had the pleasure to be screened and have my KB lifts form corrected by Jason Wood, RKC. During the screening process he was able to tell me more about my body alignment and mechanics than anyone else did within minutes. After performing some swings, cleans, C&P, snatches and get-ups Jason corrected my form. This made made my KB lifts and holds feel much more natural and safe.

Following the corrections Jason put me through a brief workout routine that was interesting and got me breathing. I look forward to the results from the program he gave me to improve my body alignment and movement. I highly recommend Jason Wood, RKC to anyone that wants to improve their body's function, movement and strenght.
