Following the recent disbanding of the United Kingdom Kettlebell Association (UKKA), CrossFit Tyneside owner Ben Walker has decided to take the baton and set up a new kettlebell organisation. The Great British Kettlebell Association (GBKA) aims to continue the good work of the UKKA.
Ben Walker says:
“The overall aims of this will be to promote safe and effective kettlebell training and coaching throughout the UK and promote kettlebell training…
…I am setting up the GBKA to ensure quality training and tuition prior to any of the big training providers moving in to feed off the carcass and promote poor quality “Instructor” certs. The lineage, heritage and ethos will always be traced back to Stan and Rob, to whom credit will always be given for what they have done for kettlebells in the UK.”
