As a police officer, Pete Diaz has always displayed a high level of energy and enthusiasm toward his lifes work, but never have I seen the level of passion and commitment that he has for RKC Kettlebell training. Pete introduced me to the sport recently and I was hooked. His ability to communicate and demonstrate why strict technique and form is vital to not only prevent injuries but receive maximum benefit helped win me over. As a 50 year old male, I felt healthier within a few weeks of training and I have made significant gains in joint mobility and strength. To this, I credit Pete Diaz' passion for the sport and his desire to share his knowledge so others can succeed. Thank you Pete.

I had the opportunity to train with Pete Diaz in a group setting for several months. More recently I had the opportunity to train with him in a one-on-one situation. In a group setting his enthusiasm was contagious. One on one his attention to detail was unbelievable. As I trained, he was able to pick my movements apart and critique them. Each tweak made movement feel more natural. His meddling made me feel stronger. He explained ???why.???

Pete Diaz???s strengths are in his abilities to break down techniques and teach them in ways that are appropriate to the individual. On several occasions he would try to explain a movement one way. If I couldn???t get it, he would come up with another way of communicating what he wanted to know until I had that ???Ah-Ha moment.???

The other thing that amazes me is how open Pete Diaz is to new ideas. His attitude with exercise seems to be, ???Try it. See if it works for you.???

I have trained at many different levels of a wide variety of sports and still consider myself a competitive/recreational athlete. Before I met Pete, I was a kettlebell virgin. Now, as I prepare for a variety of upcoming sporting events I am excited to try my new training techniques inspired by his progress and enthusiasm.

Pete Diaz provides excellent instruction on the proper technique of the different kettle bell drills.

He is skillfull in explaining how the drills should be performed and the benefits each drill provides. Pete first reviewed my technique on the swing and immediately broke down the areas where I was either missing the point of the drill or where I was performing drill in unsafe manner. He helped me focus on what I needed to do in terms of my hips, knees, shoulders, lock out, and the arc of the swing. The kettle bells drills now makes sense to me, and I now know where I can incorporate them in my conditioning routine.

I highly recommend Pete as an instructor. He was generous with his knowledge and with his energy to help me understand.

I have had the honor of training with Pete Diaz off and on for several years now. I was first introduced to Kettle Bells by Pete while I was in the Police Academy. A few years later I was training for an upcoming boxing match. I didn't feel that my traditional boxing training was enough and turned to Pete. He took time out of his own schedule and helped me design a Kettle Bell program that would work for me. The excersies were great. Pete's knowledge and willingness to teach and help make him an awesome instructor.

Pete was one of my team instructors at the RKC in September 2007. He was a fantastic support for me and the rest of our group. The RKC experience is unbelievably grueling, mentally and physically. But Pete always knew exactly the right moment to step in and make a correction, offer encouragement, or put a fire under my tail. He was a huge factor in making really hard work, really fun. Also, as a fairly slight female, I was always impressed that Pete -- a tough male Sacramento cop -- could easily identify and explain what I needed to do to my technique to nail a move. And, if I didn't get it the first time, he's creative enough to figure out another way to say it so that I will. His skills as a trainer are so strong, and made even stronger by the fact that you just like working hard for the man.
