IKFF CKT-FMD Level 2 Certification

Feb 15, 2010 | News | 0 Comments

The CKT-FMD is a Level 2 course that combines the 5 Pillars of Steve Cotter’s Health & Fitness Program: kettlebells, bodyweight exercises, martial arts conditioning drills, joint mobility & flexibility and qigong (breathing training).  All of these are combined together in modules in a boot-camp like manner and is for cutting edge trainers who want to expand beyond their traditional training and emphasize comprehensive full mind-body training.

This program is perfect for those interested in getting in the best shape of their lives while at the same learning to realize their full “movement potential“!  This ability to move athletically through a full range of motion is a must for martial artists, military & law enforcement personnel as well as anyone interested in maintaining & improving their mobility through the aging process. In the true spirit of the martial arts, the FMD courses emphasized that you are in fact an artist, and movement is a powerful, yet graceful expression of physical art.

If you watch the top athletes in the world, they are highly conditioned AND highly skilled movement specialists!  If you watch Steve, he is exactly that! Thus, who better to lead a course on helping you cross the threshold into higher levels of athletic performance!

What will you learn at an FMD Certification?

  • Why specialized movement training is absolutely necessary in ensuring your joint health
  • How to combine kettlebells and bodyweight exercises in a program that will morph you into the “Ultimate Athlete”
  • How specialized kettlebell drills can be used to simultaneously improve your mobility and explosive strength for any sport
  • How to make significant and immediate improvement in your flexibility through correct movement, alignment and tension regulation
  • The role qigong plays in improving internal wellness and shortening your recovery time between intense workouts
  • The absolute best exercises for military, law enforcement and MMA fighters
  • Why as a trainer, this integrated approach will keep your clients coming back for more
  • How Steve’s unique bodyweight exercises will challenge even the most highly skilled athletes
  • How to super-charge your hindu push-ups and diver bombers with an amazing new variation
  • How to improve your foot speed and mobility in any direction/plane of motion
  • How using Steve’s integrated approach to fitness will fill the holes in any athlete’s conditioning program
  • And much more!

That’s not all!  You will be also glad to know that going forward, the IKFF will continue to evolve and offer advanced courses for continuing education.  Furthermore, we will work with other fitness experts on promoting diverse events to constantly bring our members the best information in the industry.

The IKFF prides itself on producing coaches that are the gold standard in the industry. Thus, our criteria for passing is strict.

Attending/participating alone is not enough to obtain CKT status. You must meet the designated criteria connected to the technical and coaching components of the course.

For the technical component, you must show proficiency in three areas:  breathing, mechanics/alignment and groove (trajectory of the bell).

For the coaching component, you must show proficiency in the following areas:  client assessment, program design and professionalism.

To maintain CKT status (Level 1 and/or Level 2), it is required that you re-certify every 3 years.
For recertification,  we charge 500 Euro / 750 USD.
If you choose to attend the a CKT course as a review, the cost is 250 Euro / $350 USD.
Please note, a review within the 3 year period does count as a re-certification.
