Movement Competency & Testing↓

We believe that sound mechanics are the foundation for strength and power development. If you are an inefficient mover then it is difficult to be able to apply the required forces to the ground necessary to run fast or jump high. Additionally, movement compensations can be a precursor to injury.

We combine traditional performance testing such as vertical jump and sprint speed with a 5 level movement competency checklist for each movement pattern. This allows us to assess not only performance measures but how your child is progressing through a movement continuum.

Sprinting, Agility & Jumping Mechanics↓

A some point in our lives we all get taught how to throw and catch a ball, hit a ball with a bat or shoot a ball into a basket, but how many of us really get taught how to run or jump?

Some people are born to run and jump and can move fluidly, however for the most part most people (especially our youth athletes) don’t sprint, change direction or jump as efficiently or optimally as we think.

Spending time not only exposing them to intense efforts but to specific drills to optimise movement function is crucial to allowing your child to reach their full athletic potential.

Resistance Training for Strength & Resilience↓

We believe that a strong athlete is a resilient athlete. Being strong doesn’t always mean throwing a barbell on your back and away you go. For our growing youth athletes we primarily focus on developing tendon, ligament and bone strength along with muscular strength by exposing them to a wide variety of movements loaded in a variety ways.
