best place ever
Junior has a wealth of knowledge. And is the best at his job. I have never had an instructor or coach with such a large background in his field of expertise. Junior is very scientific with his approach to fitness and performance and sports performance. He is the only teacher I know who can breakdown the workouts and the only one who can demonstrate. I have had years of injury from participating in so many workouts to destroy my body. Junior is the only one who did not destroy my bod, increased overall performance and health , and reduced any further injury. I can not thank junior enough. I hope he opens more classes. Furthermoe , I recommend this place to any athlete, fitness fanatic, and anyone who wants get and stay healthy.J
Awesome Program!
As soon as I took my intro class I knew this would be an awesome program! NDS has helped my strength, conditioning, and self confidence. I do several "at home" video workout programs that I love and will continue to do. But Junior's program has added that extra "layer" that has helped me feel stronger and much more confident with myself. As a member of the over 50 crowd, I highly recommend this training. You will SHOCK yourself when you discover how powerful you really are.
I participate in a variety of fitness activities, and hands down NDS Athletic Performance is the best road to Achieving a sustainable, physically healthy life. I CAN'T BELIEVE I WASTED ALL THAT TIME AT THOSE OVER CROWDED, DIRTY, UNHELPFUL GYMS! Junior is a real GEM! His experience and approach are PRICELESS. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you partake in the fountain of well being that is NDS Athletic Performance. ~Robin Smith
Fitness Enthusiast
I am an avid fitness enthusiast who is always on the search for the best, most effective training methods. I've tried weight training, MMA training, SPARQ training, and P90x to name a few. I've read countless books and fitness articles as well. But finding Junior and the NDS program has changed the way I view exercise forever.
I sustained two sprained shoulders and a serious back injury in early 2010 and needed to find a program that would help me get back my fitness levels, as well as develop my 'functional' strength. Finding the NDS program and use of kettlebells has brought me all the back...and then some!
The knowledge gained and methods learned at the NDS 'school' focuses on movement patterns and functional, practical fitness.
Thank you Junior (and fellow NDS-ers) for the enlightenment!
Reached the summit!
This is my second testimonial. I have now been practicing with Junior for a year and a half. This summer I went to Africa to attempt to reach the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro. After reading hundreds of blogs on the internet about fatigue, headaches, altitude sickness, shortness of breath etc., I was expecting the worse. What I found was the training I've done with Junior, made getting up that mountain a piece of cake! I could not believe that my conditioning enabled me to get to 19.340 feet with ease. I anticipated the air to be so thin that I could hardly breathe but what I found was I could still take a deep breath at that altitude. When you practice with Junior, you feel like you are getting stronger, your clothes fit better, you have better balance etc. But I didn't realize what great condition you get in as well.
Kettle bell training is a way of life and again, I'm thankful for Junior and his classes.

Way of Life
When I tell people about Junior and what he teaches at NDS, everyone asks, Kettle bell?? What’s that?? I simply say the wave of the future that has already began. I worked with kettle bells years ago and in the time of 4-5 months I saw and noticed major change in everything a person does in everyday life. Such as, motion and function of my body, not as sore after and work out and able to sleep better and wake up with more energy than ever thought possible. Also changes in my athletic performance. Such as decrease in body fat increase in strength without bulky muscle mass, cleaner hips, better balance and stability in addition to increase in speed and control. Having the opportunity to meet and learn from Junior was a great experience he took what I know as an athlete and made it to a better lifestyle. Instead on coaching Junior, instructs and teaches with explanation which I feel everyone needs. With all the flying questions people have about why do this or why not like that Junior explains and gives detailed background into why this is the way to do it.
Junior hands down knows what he is teaching and knows how to do it well.
Bang for your Buck!
NDS Kettlebell Athletics is bang for your buck! I have been training Mark Wahlberg for 5 years now. When we train, we train to feel better and look great! By incorporating the kettlebell into our workouts (especially those swings! talk about a blast of energy!), we are stronger, more athletic, the aches and pains are gone, and the famous abs have never looked better! A big thanks to Junior and his talents!

It's hard to explain to people how much myself and my son enjoy this training. Training the brain to control your body movements and energy is something I have never thought to do. My brain has been tainted by all my past coaches and developed really bad habbits in training. Junior is helping me gain my control over the movements of my body and how to effectively use my energy. The Kettle bell training is the "BEST" training I have ever done. I am hooked for life and I look forward to starting our new cycle next week. Also, I wanted to add that the people who train at NDS are all awesome individuals. All ages and different levels of atheletes but Junior is intensional about making sure we all learn the same things and train the same way. Junior "Thank You", for being committed for change the right and honest way. What are you waiting for folks, join our NDS family and stop waisting time! GET IT GET IT!!!!!!
BEST I'VE FOUND!
Junior and his NDS facility has the ability to inspire you to work yourself into shape utilizing functional movement and kettlebells.
Just about the best I have found - yet close to home and reasonable without any sense of being pretentious or judgmental. Try it for yourself!!!
Immediately HOOKED!
This review for Junior and NDS is long overdue. I took an intro class probably well over a year ago at the urging of a friend and still faithful NDS student. It was from that little taste that I was immediately hooked. I recognized at once that Junior, his philosophy and his instruction was something very different and very special. Although I was unable to join at the time, I never forgot about NDS and immediately joined as soon as my budget allowed for it.
Having recently suffered a knee injury while playing soccer, Junior has taken the time to take care of both me and my injury. Although temporarily sidelined from my sport, I'm feeling great and know I'm on the fast track to recovery. I also believe that w/ Juniors help, I will come back even stronger than ever!
Junior is so kind, caring and selfless. He's your biggest cheerleader, and your favorite teacher rolled into one. People like Junior are so rare, and I feel very lucky to know him and privileged to be his student.
Oh, and I can't forget to mention the students at NDS! They are AWESOME as well. No attitudes here. Only a fun and supportive environment. After every class, I leave feeling so content and with a big smile on my face. Now how often can you say that after just being thoroughly worked out?
I've already raved to all who will listen about NDS, so go, just go, take an intro class and you'll see what all the hype's about!
