The RDCC Approach
- Focus on Functional Training - Because our staff have both a Fitness and Kettlebell Training background we help students build functional strength, agility, and increased range of motion. We also have functional strength training sessions, available to students only where we train people at no extra cost utilizing Olympic Rings, Bodyweight Training Equipment, and Traditional Bodyweight training.
- Stress Safety, Train More Frequently - We believe that the more time spent on the mat, the faster the technicual progression for students. Therefore, we ensure and enforce SAFETY FIRST. We believe its better that people train safe, than train recklessly. Hardcore training is not training to pain, but rather TRAINING EVERYDAY!
