[Sufian]

dont mind me saying this...

is there official cert coming out of this course?

if there isn't, then i really think the prics should be lowered.

[hermanchauw]

It is very cheap already compared to IKFF, RKC, AKC, CST etc. CST was SGD1200 WITHOUT certification.

[Weib]

But you have to note that RKC,AKC,IKFF are international organization with top coaches and sought after speakers/presenters.
I believe you should make it cheaper via boot camp method and get more people involve before moving on to such prices.

$500 per pax is alil too much to ask for imo.

[galapogos]

Herman, don't take this the wrong way, but you can't compare your 2 day workshop with IKFF, RKC, AKC, CST etc. AFAIK those courses are geared towards KB educators/instructors/coaches, whereas your workshop is geared towards KB enthusiasts, i.e. for personal consumption only. Correct me if I'm wrong here. Besides, the instructors of those other coaches probably have more/better credentials and experience than you. Again, correct me if I'm wrong. Lastly, the demand for such courses is probably higher for those courses held overseas, so they can afford to charge higher as they have no lack of participants. Compare this to Singapore where KB awareness is still virtually non-existent. $500 would be pricing yourself way out of the budgets of most people, esp with the current economy situation.

But of course, if you feel you can attract enough participants at this current price, then feel free to ignore what I've mentioned. Just my 2c...

[hermanchauw]

Where were you when Steve Cotter's workshop was only SGD200?

Where were you when Adam Steer was here?

Where were you when i offered classes for free?

Where were you when i offered classes below market rate now?

So why should i listen to you?

Take out your money first then we'll talk.

[galapogos]

You have absolutely no reason to listen to me. If you feel my opinions are not constructive, feel free to disregard them.

[Weib]

dude, if we don't want you to succeed then we'll not bother even giving you feedback.
You can argue here and say this and that, but end of the day the everyday people will not give a crap about who's who rather who are you.

Maybe just maybe If you're a celebrity trainer or a star (read Vincent Ng), then maybe you can have that kind of attraction to price it at this kind of pricing.
You need to get in touch with consumer's mentality and find a nice compromise with their wallets.

I dare say even if Pavel were to come here, only a few of us will go and that's about it.
We're giving you frank constructive feedback, I don't know why you're so defensive about it.

[hermanchauw]

I dare say even if Pavel were to come here, only a few of us will go and that's about it.

See what i mean.

[Weib]

okay, good luck in your work- though i don't see what you mean.

[hermanchauw]

What i mean is if you have no intention to come, your opinion doesn't count.

[jerry.mobbs]

I dare say even if Pavel were to come here, only a few of us will go and that's about it.

Hey fatso.....

You are always going on about how bad form can cause long term injury.

You have the worst kettlebell form out of everyone, especially considering your a 'trainer'.

According to your own logic, you therefore run the risk of serious long term injury.

You must know this because you have seen your own form on the video, and your a trainer so you should know what good form looks like....

By not attending this course that is in your home town, you are showing that your own personal long term health is worth less to you than S$500

It just goes to show that ignorance can be fixed, but you just can't fix stupid.

not at all louis

its not about the letters after the cert

you have quality instruction on your doorstep

your a 'professional' trainer

you state that poor form will cause long term damage

you have poor kettelbell form

you choose to ignore that fact and not correct it using the readily available tuition thats in singapore

you choose to continue to use a kettlebell

how smart is that?

[hermanchauw]

Jerry, he is smart. He doesn't anyhow spend money on worthless things.

I am stupid. I spend thousand of bucks on certifications and courses when the market don't even think it is worth that much. Can't even make my capital back.

[xarope]

Sorry Herman, I would have signed up, but my wife and I are going to be in HK+Macau from 1-7 May.

[jinn]

Sweet! Now there is one less reason for people to not attend and learn.

[Sufian]

Thanks for reducing the price Herman. Awaiting wife's clearance for the financial into-herman flow. BTW, what are the dates of the course? Still 1st and 2nd May?

[Sufian]

Anyone else wanna go? The more friends the cheaper for us, and of course the less objection from my wife.

Before u guys blast me as a cheapo, I have plans to take a few certifications by the way. So, i am like putting aside a lot of money for those I have in mind. CF being one of them.

Anyway Herman can provide certificate of participation or something? U know a cert would help me cover my ass a lot in my line of work.

[hermanchauw]

Seriously, is it that important for you to have a certificate of participation? Your technique don't lie.

[galapogos]

Herman, I'm going to go out on a limb for you and attend this one, if there are no schedule conflicts...

And yes, as a teacher, certifications are very important for Sufian.

[jerry.mobbs]

Seriously, is it that important for you to have a certificate of participation? Your technique don't lie.

Just create the cert

Singapore kettlebell certification- level one

Use the cf cert text for level one. Bassically says you showed and got instictuon in the method.

[Sufian]

Changed my mind about attending the class. No go for me.

[king]

why need a cert to pratice KB?
if u are good, u r.....full stop

[vicvic]

depends on who you are, if you're a teacher like sufian who will be responsible for his students when he come to impacting them skills, paper qualification does matter.
