Your father was one of the kindest, gentlest but fiercest men I’ve ever met. He was an extraordinary teacher and one that believed in leading by example. After watching the grace, wisdom and courage you displayed in making this video Daniel (not to mention your mannerisms and appearance!) it is clear that your dad has passed down his legacy and is surely looking down and smiling knowing it is in great hands! If I can be of any assistance to you guys along the way, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Love (with a capital “L”) Jeff Cavaliere
I'm staggered and apalled that someone in such a prime of life has been lost. I hope that the the outpouring of support from the wider community allows you to draw some comfort in your grieving.
I wish I could have been part of this. Steve was my inspiration and helped me get to what I do now. I'll forever be thankful and will help in any way I can from Swing This KB Club and KBOMG. You'll never be forgotten friend. Joe Daniels
Thank you Steve for everything you have taught me. Commitment to wellness and honoring my vessel. Giving me the strength to push on through hard times. You have always there guiding me to push me limits and be a guiding light of love to the world, repecting all walks of life with respect and appreciation. Your legacy will continue on in the hearts of those you have impacted, creating a better world for all with the Love energy that is you, my friend. I know your energy and your soul will continue to guide me and others. I feel so honored to have been your student since I was 8 years old. Thank you for holding on during your transition to give time for family and friends to spend a little more time with you. It was so amazing to connect with old friends again and by doing so, making the community stronger. Thank you, buddy. I Honor you, Love you ❤️🕊❤️
Steve and IKFF changed the trajectory of my life. Almost 15 years later and I am still using and teaching others the techniques taught by Steve. No words can some up how thankful I am for his teachings. Sending Love to all those out there in the KB family.
I'm deeply saddened for your family's loss. We as a community will mourn his passing but we are all grateful for his teachings and his positive messages. For me personally, he helped me find something to do during the lockdowns that helped me physically and mentally.
I am one of the untold thousands your father inspired since he first came to prominence in the kettlebell community and I am very grateful for the few days I got to spend time with him in person and assist him with demos. I always hoped our paths would cross again and I am so sorry for Steve's family, friends and students to lose him so suddenly. I had already written on Gregory's Lebe Stark and Nsima's interview with him that it is up to us who knew him and understood the value of his teachings to take it on and continue to develop and share what we got from him with each other and those who have yet to discover his work. It's great to hear that his legacy is in good hands. Thank you.
Thank you, Steve, for your mentorship. thanks to your teachings I was able to support my family and make people healthy again. Without those teachings at that time, who knows where I would have ended up? Blessings on your friends, family, and students as they carry the example you set forward.
Steve got me in great shape through highschool and college working out to his DVDs. He had some of the most ridiculous strength I've ever seen displayed with kettlebells and calisthenics! Prayers to your family and Mr. Cotter.
I did not know your father personally, only through his work on social media including UA-cam. In this world full of self proclaimed fitness influencers, he stood out vastly from them all due to his eagerness to help with questions, eagerness to teach and share information, and kindness in the manner in which he did so. I can only imagine just how much more so this was magnified in his personal presence. I pray that God brings you comfort. There is no easy way or right time to go through something like this, my Mom passed on recently and I testify to the difficulty of these things. Your father said he wasn't afraid of dying, and I don't believe he had a reason to. God be with you.
I am honored to have known your Dad, be his student and close friend. I have been fortunate to have been part of the IKFF since he founded it. I will always do everything I can to honor Steve’s mission and message! Much love Daniel!
I didn't know him personally, but Steve Cotter was a very important reference for me during my kettlebell training journey. I have all his DVDs and books. My condolences and greetings from Brazil.
I'm truly sorry for your loss. Steve's techniques were introduced to me around 2012 and I've consistently used a few of his training flows regularly since then. I'm very grateful to have learned from him even if I never had met him in person. May his warrior spirit live on!
Unbelievable! I only now saw this information and im shocked. Steve Cotter was one of the biggest motivator for me at the beginning in my kettlebell journey ever since 2008 when i started and through the years. I learned so much from him. My deepest condolences. Big love from Finland.
Made me quite sad and certainly shocked on hearing of his passing. Have followed Steve since his time at Dragon Door. Incredibly inspiring and capable guy and I honestly think he was likely one of the best trainers around. My condolences to his family and friends.
Oh my God... so sorry to hear this. I just had a 1-1 free online consultation with him on 10 January and was thinking of having some training from him. What a sad news. I will continue to enjoy some videos that he posted here. RIP Steve.
I had no idea, I am so sorry to hear this. Steve was a legend and I enjoyed the videos he posted here. My condolences to your family, he was such a positive influence on so many.
Attended the IKFF CKT course in Edinburgh in 2009. Steve was an extraordinary athlete and an even better human being. A really fitting tribute. Well done.
My condolences to you & your family. Steve has been a huge part of my training career for many many many yrs. I wouldn’t be where I am today without his coaching.
Unbelievable!!! Can't help wonder now if he was vaccinated?? My heart goes out to you all. Sincere condolences. I found Steve's kettlebell DVD's over 20 years ago. RIP
I’m truly sorry about your loss. Your father is inspirational to so many . In an era of bravado in fitness, Mr Cotter was a kind , compassionate and serious in his approach as a teacher and mentor. May the mission continue strongly, spiritually, with a capital L! 💪
Man I didnt even believe this! I so thought this was jusy honoring him in general as he was and is an amazing feat of what to strive for in fitness. My blessings are with your family. You are Steve Son 100% (almost thought it was him talking) and Im sure you will carry his legacy on!
May your dad rest in peace! My dad passed in 2022 unexpectedly, I can understand how you feel. Your dad spread a positve message and I am sure he is proud of you helping continue the mission of health fitness and love :)
I was shocked and saddened to hear about Steve’s death through Liebe Stark how someone so seemingly fit strong and healthy could have a cardiac arrest. One can’t wonder was he C vaccinated

Kettlebells wouldn't have half the popularity without Steve, RIP sir.
