Welcome to Pura Vida Kettlebells!
Pura Vida Kettlebells is dedicated to pure living and the development of strength. Strength of body, strength of mind and strength of spirit. By training the body, we develop our will, by developing our will we grow in faith as we seek to connect the physical to the spiritual. Training for strength from the outside in.
"When we say strength, we mean Kettlebell. When we say Kettlebell, we mean strength."
-Pavel Tsatsouline
The main tool of choice for developing strength from the outside in is the Russian Kettlebell. This tool of strength development has been around for at least 300 years. It was popular here in the States during the later half of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
Over the years the Kettlebell in America faded into obscurity, while in Russia and Soviet block countries, it became a secret weapon to develop hard men and women into rugged warriors. The Kettlebell (Girya in Russian) eventually became a national sport and source of national pride.
Now thanks to the efforts of Pavel Tsatsouline, John DuCane and DragonDoor.com, the Russian Kettlebell has returned to America.
Kettlebell training will help you. Whether your quest is strength, conditioning, weight loss or muscle mass, Kettlebell Training will help you get there.
What about confidence? Low self-image? Lack of spirit or will? Do you feel like the guy in the old Charles Atlas ads? Is that you? Even on the inside? Nothing builds strength of mind and spirit like good old fashioned hard work. Setting, working toward and accomplishing goals will develop the confidence you've missed out on. Watch as it filters into the rest of your life.
Have you struggled with or are struggling with an addiction? Is your spirit weak? Do you have some inner demons that need exercising? Nothing purifies the body like exercise and training. Kettlebell training is a form of what Dan Millman likes to call Conscious Exercise. In No Ordinary Moments, A Peaceful Warrior's Guide to Daily Life, Millman writes:

Kettlebell training is a form of what Dan Millman likes to call Conscious Exercise. In No Ordinary Moments, A Peaceful Warrior's Guide to Daily Life, Millman writes:
"Conscious exercise is a form of balanced, integrated, movement specifically designed for the overall health of the body, mind and emotions. Conscious exercise includes and incorporates all the basic qualities of physical talent: strength, suppleness, stamina, and sensitivity (including balance, rhythm, timing, coordination, and reflex speed)."
Millman also goes on to say:
"Our bodies are the roots through which we connect heaven to earth. We can't blossom until these roots run deep."
By strengthening the body and pushing our physical limits, we can find inner strength that we didn't know we had. When you're body says quit, but you find a way to press on and get one more, that is strength. In American football, when a running back gets hit, he pushes forward trying to get one more inch. Kettlebell training will give you this strength. The strength to press on and forward when life's toughest challenges hit you straight on.
You have goals. You have dreams. You have a body that needs training. You have a mind that needs discipline. And you have a spirit that needs to be lifted.
Kettlebell Training will forge the body, mind and spirit of a warrior, but only if you accept it's challenge.
In Costa Rica, the national slogan is "Pura Vida." Literally translated it means "pure life," but in Costa Rica its meaning is closer to "full of life." That is what Kettlebell training has done for me; filled me full of life. What could it do for you?
