"Steve has taken me from a girl who couldn't press a 12kg bell to an athlete who has competed and ranked in national Kettlebell sport competitions"

I became a formal student of Steve's in 2011 and in that time his programming, feedback and general interactions have been pivotal to my success.
I have smashed goals, beat PRs and set new goals that I had never even dreamt of. 
My body composition has changed beyond recognition and my power, strength and endurance abilities have all increased significantly. 
Steve has taken me from a girl who couldn't press a 12kg bell to an athlete who has competed and ranked in national Kettlebell sport competitions, a coach who has passed the IKFF Level 1 test and into a woman who can carry out functional lifting on a day to day basis. 
Steve is committed to ensuring his students have the best opportunity possible of achieving goals and he pushes you farther than you thought was possible but which he knew you could achieve. He understands the human condition, he can relate to anyone in the world, including children and he understands our physical and, more importantly, our psychological weaknesses and limits better than any coach I have ever worked with. 
He puts a significant amount of effort and cares into each week's programming, it is clearly individual and if I didn't know better I would believe that I was his only student.
 I do not anticipate ever training with another coach, Steve is a lifelong learner himself and very humble, he enjoys sharing new practises, methods of training and has a knack of applying it perfectly to any given situation. He is without a doubt a legend in his own lifetime
