Speed – Agility – Quickness Training Classes

Each athlete can then monitor their progress and use the ranking as a motivational tool to reach the highest ranking of Speed – Agility – Quickness!
One hour training session Recommendation: 8- 12 sessions
Jump Training Classes
During this class, participants’ vertical jump and ground reaction time are measured and ranked. Participants then go through flexibility, strength and jump technique training. Through a systematic progression athletes will see the link between strength and speed of movement to produce power and a BIG Jump. Each athlete can then monitor their progress and use the ranking as a motivational tool to reach the highest ranking of Vertical Jump.
One hour training session Recommendation: 8- 12 sessions
Advanced Target Jump Training Classes
This unique jump training program tests an athlete’s ability to jump in real sport situations like blocking a basketball shot, heading a soccer ball, catching a football or spiking a volleyball.
