North Beach Kettlebell was pleased to present this full-day workshop featuring Dr. Mark Cheng — an expert in martial arts, Chinese medicine, functional movement, and RKC kettlebell training.
Workshop content
- Dr. Mark Cheng’s Tai Cheng system — traditional Tai Chi fused with Functional Movement Systems training principles.
- Pistol progressions — how to use mobility and stability to power up the one-legged squat.
- The RKC Big 6 — polishing the fundamentals: the swing, the squat, the Turkish get-up, the clean, the press, and the snatch.
Who it was for
The workshop was aimed at anyone who was:
- a kettlebell enthusiast wanting to fine-tune their lifts;
- an athlete after more performance with greater safety;
- an RKC II hopeful struggling with the one-legged pistol squat;
- curious about martial arts, especially Tai Chi, and how it supports strength training;
- a trainer wanting the clearest possible coaching cues for kettlebell instruction.

The small capacity was deliberate. Fifteen participants is roughly the ceiling at which one instructor can still correct every repetition in a technical workshop, which is the whole reason for attending one.
