INDIVIDUAL ASSESSMENT
The difference in professional sports and amateur sports is routine...In order to guarantee we are working with a purpose, and creating a plan for success, our assessment is required for all first-time athletes. We will formulate a plan of progression, simple to advanced, and evaluate baseline knowledge, strength, and ability in order to get the most out of your time, and effort. Athlete assessments are the beginning of the training cycle. We are now a 100% technology-based training facility. The player, trainer, coaches and parents all need to understand the "entire athlete", create a plan, set goals and parent/player expectations. View all assessment options on our site or contact us for more information.
FUNCTIONAL MOVEMENT SCREENING
The functional movement screening (FMS) was developed to assess an individual's ability to perform fundamental movements that help identify movement quality. This screening provides a baseline for athletes and instructors to improve mobility and performance. Player reports and exercises are provided. We have FMS certified instructors.
PRIVATE INSTRUCTION
One on one time is a vital component to the development of an athletes progression, and the best way to optimize mechanics. The goal is to help your body "feel" what its like to throw, swing, and field efficiently while understanding the mechanical chain, and how each movement creates momentum for the next. Rip City instructors will blend video, visual, and demonstration learning techniques to relate information to the different ways student-athletes learn.
GROUP INSTRUCTION
Group instruction is a great way to create a different learning environment. It promotes competition, keeps athletes focused while maintaining the needed workload.
