Youth Performance Training
Empower’s performance development for youth athletes is unique. Our program fosters a supportive learning environment that provides an appropriate balance between challenge and fun, which helps young athletes develop robust levels of athleticism, reduce the risk of injury, and enhance their health and well-being.
We offer age-appropriate exercise programs for middle and high-school age youth athletes to empower them to live active and healthy lives and elevate their athletic performance. Led by our team of expert Performance Development Coaches, our program uses the most up-to-date scientific research and focuses on improving the coordination, strength, power, speed and flexibility of growing adolescence.
Your kid enjoys playing sports but . . .
- Struggles with pain or injuries that sideline them from the sport they love.
- You worry they will suffer a severe inury such as an ACL tear.
- They need to increase their strength, mobility, and coordination to improve performance.
- You worry they are specializing too early and will benefit from cross-training.
- They lack the confidence to try out for the team.
Getting Started with Youth Performance Training
By enrolling your child in our program, you’re not just investing in their physical performance—you’re investing in their future success, both on and off the field. Let us guide your child towards their fullest potential and help them develop the strength, skills and confidence they need to compete at the highest level and stay healthy.
To get started, sign up for a Youth Athlete Evaluation, where our Expert Coaches will assess your athlete’s current levels of strength, speed and reaction time, as well as their biomechanics and movement coordination. Following their evaluation they will receive 3 – 30 minute private sessions to cover basic lifting form and plyometric movements.
Then, you and your athlete can decide together if they want to continue with private personal training sessions, join one of the Youth Performance Development training groups, or, like many of our younger clients, do both!
