IMPORTANT: For Those Attending the IKL Kettlebell Competition This Saturday, 9/21

First, let me say that there is still space for more students who wish to attend the competition this Saturday.  If you have never participated, it is a lot like a regular class.  You will be performing 10 minute AMRAPs. The events are:
Single Arm Snatch
Single Arm Clean and Jerk
Double Half Snatch
Double Jerk
 
 
You can pick 1, or more, events to compete in.  Competition is based on age, gender, and weight class.
 
Every athlete will be judged on their performance by another person.  That judge will record the athlete's name, kettlebell size, and total reps at completion.  Every athlete competing will ALSO be judging
 
Here is the order of things:
 
8am: Report to the location for weigh ins.
 
8:15-8:30am- Rules
 
8:30-8:50 Athletes Warmup
 
9am-10am: Events start in this order:
 
                      Single Arm Snatch
                      Single Arm Clean and Jerk
                      Double Half Snatch
                      Double Jerk
 
Competition Location:
 
12041 Bournefield Way
Suite C
Silver Spring, MD 20904
 
***You MUST rely on the address alone to find out location.  If you have never been, allow extra time in case you get lost.  There will be no sign, as we just moved to a larger location.  Use your GPS, and plan ahead please!
 
Finally, bring your own towel and water.  Kettlebells will be provided.  You DO NOT have to use competition kettlebells if you don't want to.
