MOVEMENT EVALUATION

Athletic Development Coaching can conduct baseline movement screening using the FMS System and a more in-depth evaluation via the state-of-the-art DorsaVi VPerform System, both of which provide a roadmap for designing programming and protective strategies. ADC is the only athletic development company in the area that uses the DorsaVi System.

TEAM AND LARGE GROUP TRAINING

Our methods allow us to efficiently and effectively work with teams and other large groups, providing athletic development training appropriate across the full spectrum of ages and ability levels, for both female and male athletes. Our goal is to enhance movement skills and in-game conditioning while creating a more resilient athlete and mitigate the risk of non-contact injuries.
