You’re motivated. You make the time. You show up. But if your Instructor or the Community or the location isn’t the right fit, it can feel like you’re spinning your wheels — or worse, risking injury.

A Great Instructor can be the difference between:
progress and frustration
confidence and confusion
showing up... and giving up
So, what exactly makes a great Instructor? And how can you tell when you've found one?
📚 They Know Their Stuff — And Keep Learning
A good Instructor has certifications. A GREAT Instructor keeps learning beyond them.
They understand form, function, programming — and they can explain the why behind every move.
💡 At Studio 30 Fitness, specifically kettlebell training, is our specialty. We teach safe, powerful, and purposeful movement — not just swinging kettlebells around.
🧩 They Don’t Do Cookie-Cutter Workouts
A great Instructor customizes / modifies workout:
every class is custom
every day is different
we don't repeat workouts each week or month
WE ALWAYS BRING THE FUN!
✅ Studio 30 is NOT the cookie-cutter type. Every single workout is different.
You’ll never repeat workouts. This is crucial to a results driven environment.
🎯 A Coach, Not a Drill Sergeant
Accountability matters — but yelling doesn’t. A great Instructor challenges you with:
Respect
Encouragement
Clear, real guidance
🙌 Our goal is to build confidence, not tear it down. You’ll leave Studio 30 feeling stronger, not defeated.
👀 They Watch Your Form Like a Hawk
A great Instructor is PRESENT. They don’t coach from across the room or scroll their phone or workout with you.
Their JOB is to:
Correct form
Offer Pain Free modifications where needed
Maximize performance
💥 With kettlebells, technique is EVERYTHING — and we’ve got your back every rep of the way.
❤️ They Care About More Than Just Your Workout
Fitness doesn’t end when the session is over. It's a Journey and should be treated as such.
A great Instructor cares about YOU & how outside influencers affect your overall wellness:
stress
recovery
overall well-being
injuries
💬 We take time to get to know YOU. Because what happens outside the gym shows up inside it.
✨ Don't Settle!
If your workouts feel boring (they probably are) or you're not seeing results or you're just NOT motivated, it might not be you — it might be the coaching & the facility.
💬 “The right Instructor & Community make all the difference.”
When you’ve got someone in your corner who knows their stuff and truly cares, you’ll feel it — in your energy, your strength and your results.
