Eastside Kettlebell Collective

Making it official with the Hard Launch! We are very excited to announce, to absolutely no one’s surprise, that Eastside Kettlebell Collective is now a HYROX Training Club! And with that we are adding on more Hyrox Training classes to our schedule with unique programming starting this week. In addition to the Wednesday morning Engine Builder class, there will be a
Wednesday evening Hyrox Open Gym, and a Friday evening Hyrox Base Building Strength class. Starting Sunday 9/13 we will be offering a 90 minute super class to train the specific elements of the competition. The programming for the Wednesday and Friday classes will be made available early in the week for you to do at your availability at Open Gyms. To access the Hyrox specific training we have a new Hyrox Expansion Pack available for purchase This will give you priority access to the classes programming.
Hyrox is coming to Portland May 2027 and we have many members already training for SLC, Anaheim, Nashville, Vancouver BC and more! Training is always better with friends so let’s gooooooo!

Our DollyRockyHorror tribute workout to the divas we lost last week was super silly and fun. We got to dress up, and some people tried on long red stiletto nails and most made it through the whole workout! This diva with long stiletto nails was so proud 🥹 We celebrate the lives of two people who brought so us much joy 🌈🌟🥹

Special Powerbells mashup workout tribute class this Friday in honor of the passing of Tim Curry and Dolly Parton. Come dressed as your favorite Dolly or Rocky Horror character 💜💫

September’s focus is Mobility! Here’s a quick animal flow we are going to in tomorrow’s class. If this looks like a lot-don’t worry! We can modify and movement for any body🤗

Another year of Soapbox Derby done! This year we continued winning at being the Gayest 🌈 Not The Fastest 🤣. We made The Ice Melter, our Heated Rivalry inspired Big Gay Zamboni. Almost everyone only got in two runs due to many medical issues on the course but we still had a blast. Huge thanks to the team who made this year better than ever- Andy (also Ilya on brakes), Ash, Cody (also Shane, driver), Brit (Scott, pusher) Amanda, Gabby, Charlie and everyone else who pitched in. And it was great to see everyone who stopped by The Pit to say hi! And of course huge thanks to the organizers and volunteers, especially our own, Lea! We’ve got even bigger plans for next year! 🤩

We will be celebrating Madonna‘s birthday (which is Sunday) with a special Powerbells class this Friday morning at 7:30 AM. Please come dressed as your favorite Madonna era!

She’s almost ready to go! We are putting on the finishing touches this week to send her down Mt Tabor next Saturday 8/15! Bring your friends and family to check it out! Huge thank you to Andy, Ash, Cody, Gabby and Amanda for spending many a hot summer afternoon working on her. This is our 4th year and we keep getting better! 🏒 🏎️🌈✨
