This phase is perhaps the most important in terms of forming overall athletic development, and creating a life-long enjoyment of physical activity. The neuromuscular (mind to muscle) system at this point is a fresh sponge soaking in everything that it is exposed to. Movement patterns learned during this time can either increase or decrease the athlete’s chances of having a successful, injury-minimized career depending on if they are taught properly. Our youth programs are 60 minute sessions dedicated to the development of efficient neuromuscular patterns that lead to proper foundational movement patterns in terms of acceleration technique, balance, deceleration technique, total body coordination, multi-directional movements(agility), and beginning strength training exercises.

Foundational movement patterns form next level athleticism. Even at this phase our main goal does not change. We still aim to develop efficient neuromuscular (mind to muscle) patterns that lead to proper foundational movement patterns in terms of acceleration technique, maximum velocity technique, deceleration technique, total body coordination, multi-directional movements and strength training exercises. At this point most athletes have developed these mind to muscle patterns and it is now time to fine tune them. In addition, during these 90 minute sessions, we begin to combine all of the different foundational movement patterns together in various forms to show the athlete how everything comes together in competitive situations. In addition, our strength training portion evolves in intensity and complexity to further challenge neuromuscular development as well as optimize strength and power production.
