Athletic Development

Athletic Development has many components including multi-directional explosive power and speed. We will gear our program toward improving all aspects of athleticism including speed, agility, power, strength and conditioning. The repetitive movement of sport activities creates muscle imbalances through overuse of certain muscles and inactivity of others.

Muscle imbalances of this type often lead to decreased range of motion creating an increased risk of injury. A pre-training functional movement evaluation will be performed on each athlete in order to assess areas of weakness, decreased range of motion and muscle inefficiency. Personalized corrective exercises are supplemented into each workout to ensure our athletes minimize existing imbalances through their training.

Programs are available for athletes as young as 7 up to professional athletes looking to extend their careers while increasing their Fitness.

Active Aging

During the class, participants receive individualized balance training according to the documented impairments obtained from the assessments. The goal of balance and gait training is to maintain good posture and balance while walking and performing daily activities. Such training is vital for older adults who must be able to quickly respond to conditions where balance is needed, such as walking across uneven surfaces. Education in balance and gait training can help prevent serious falls as well as other injuries.

This class will answer:

• The most important muscles for preventing falls
