What Is the TKC?

The Texas Kettlebell Club (TKC) is Seguin's premiere Strength and Conditioning training facility. This is NOT your normal health club or gym. We use Kettlebells, Tires, Battling Ropes, Olympic Lifts, Hammers, and Olympic Rings. We train indoor and outdoor. Our Instructors have Certifications in Kettlebells(RKC/HKC/IKFF), CrossFit, Personal Training, and Warrior Diet. The TKC takes ordinary people and in a short time produces extraordinary results. There is no B.S. here! It takes training hard and eating right to get those results. No magic pills or short cuts!
The TKC operates like a family, our instructors are always there to help you out with whatever you need. Whether it be nutrition, scaling a workout, or help on a particular exercise.

Interested in joining the TKC family? We offer 2 FREE trial classes. Decide for yourself if the TKC is right for you. Contact us now at texaskettlebellclub@gmail.com or 830-556-4180.
