Youth speed & agility (ages 5 to 12) builds quick-feet foundations, running mechanics, footwork, a plyometric intro, and reaction games, within the 8-week academy framework.
The half-day youth session, block by block.
The full academy runs in four two-week phases. Youth use bodyweight only; teens and adults add light resistance and timed tracking as they progress.
Posture, body control, deceleration, and landing mechanics. Athletic stance, wall drives, single-leg stability, and ladder footwork.
Powerful first three steps and clean sprint posture. Wall drives, sled pushes, resisted starts, and 10 to 20 yard accelerations.
Top-end speed and efficient cutting. Flying sprints, wickets, 5-10-5 pro agility, L-drill, and T-drill, with deceleration control.
React, decide, and explode under game-like cues. Mirror drills, partner/ball reaction, depth jumps, and bounds; full re-test vs. Phase 1.
A full testing battery is recorded at the start and end of each block, measured by Ashlee Austin-Bean.
10-yard, 20-yard, and 40-yard sprint times recorded at the start and end of each block.
5-10-5 pro agility and L-drill for cutting efficiency.
Vertical jump, broad jump, and reactive shuttle measured by Ashlee Austin-Bean.
