ABOUT THE BRIGHTON KETTLEBELLS TEAM
The Brighton Kettlebells team is hand picked to ensure the highest standard of training possible. Each one of our coaches can put into practice everything that they teach as they themselves regularly train with kettlebells.
We require that each coach is certified by the best in the industry and that they themselves have a high standard of fitness. Furthermore, each coach has their own unique style of training, giving each class a different twist with varied and fun workouts, so you never get bored.
CHRISTIAN VILA
Founder and Operator - Brighton Kettlebells
Christian was one of the first Personal trainers to become certified to teach Kettlebells in Brighton & Hove. Having been in the health & fitness industry since 1998, he has a passion for training and helping others achieve their fitness goals. After graduating with a BA (Hons) Sports Science degree, he’s had the best training in the industry possible, leading to a level 3 Personal Training qualification from the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM).
Disillusioned by the fitness industry, Christian turned to Kettlebells in 2008 and has trained under the world’s best trainers, including Angie Dowds (Biggest Loser series) , Steve Cotter (IKFF) , Martin Rooney (TFW) and Mike Mahler (Aggressive Strength) to become one of the country’s top Kettlebell trainers.
Christian went on to launch the successful Brighton Kettlebells classes in 2008, which now has several classes a week around Brighton & Hove.
Christian also offers personal training under the CVPT banner around Brighton & Hove.
