Total Satisfaction!

“I have tried all of the typical forms of exercise, and more, never really achieving total satisfaction.......until I found Dynamic Kettlebell Fitness!!!!! Wow.......what a workout! Keira and her staff are so supportive, dedicated, passionate about what they do AND encouraging of all kettlebell students to reach their individual goals and realize their potential to go beyond. When I started working out with Keira I was not happy with my body or my lack of strength, having 3 small children had definitely taken it's roll on my body. Now, thanks to Keira's amazing instruction, attention to detail, and drive for excellent form....... I have lost more than 20 pounds, dropped from a size 10 to a size 2 and am stronger than I knew was possible! Additionally, my training with Keira has helped my asthma tremendously, an outcome that I had not anticipated. I look so forward to my workouts at DKB Fitness that I hate to miss a single day! On days that I can't make it to a class.....my husband and daughters say I actually pout! I can't thank Keira enough for giving me back my confidence, my health and for helping to make me a much happier person. Whether you live in Santa Fe or are just visiting the city, do yourself a favor and attend just 1 of Keira's classes.....it will change your entire outlook on exercise and send you on your way to becoming a healthier you!!!”

Size 13 to 3

“Let me start by saying that, prior to joining DKB, I had not had any form of "workout" in over a year, had never been able to do a push-up (much less a burpee), and had the cardiovascular fitness of Jaba the Hut. Since joining DKB, I have lost 25lbs, dropped from a size 13 to a size 3, gained strength, speed, endurance, and overall health-----and I have Keira, and DKB Fitness, to thank for that.

I am not one to stick with any kind of physical activity, as it usually grows boring and my motivation slips away, but I cannot get enough of this exciting and ever challenging form of exercise. I never dreamed that I could be one of those people who actually crave their exercise. I never thought that I could withstand the intense, and surprisingly addictive, kettlebell workouts created by Keira and her talented DKB Staff, but I have realized that this time is different . . . this time, I can do this and I WILL ACCOMPLISH MY GOALS. All thanks to the support and relentless pushing of Keira Newton.”

Transfomational Experience

“My experience at DKB Fitness was nothing less than transformational. Never before had I found a form of exercise that I enjoyed, excelled at, and that produced measurable results. Never before had I found a gym with such dedicated and skilled trainers who inspired and motivated their students to break through physical plateaus and mental limitations both to discover themselves anew. Before finding DKB Fitness, I never imagined using the word athletic to describe myself. After losing 45 pounds, 23 inches and achieving a body fat percentage of 19.1% and maintaining these stats for over one year, I am thrilled to own that description. Keira Newton and her team of trainers are superbly talented at constructing challenging and innovative workouts, stressing proper form to avoid injury, and motivating students to transform their bodies. There are not enough words to capture how strongly I appreciate and recommend DKB to anyone and everyone.”

A True Miracle Worker

I have always been an athlete but in 2001 I was hit by a dumptruck and suffered many injuries. After 3 years of PT, I was told "this is as good as it gets. You'll learn to live with the pain." Several years, and a few injuries later, I found Keira and told her what I was dealing with. I told her I was at rock bottom and she was my last hope at working out, getting healthier and getting happier. 3 weeks later I noticed a significant decrease in my pain. At week 6 I felt virtually no pain and my flexibility had increased enough that I no longer felt like the tin man. 8 months later I am 25 lbs lighter, I'm stronger, healthier and infinitely happier. Keira has done what doctors said couldn't be done. She is a true miracle worker.
