Programs for Sport Coaches

Coach with children's sports team 
As parents seek activity options for their youngsters, both athletic and personal training programs are exploding in popularity.

While sports programs often utilize developmental strategies for the specific skills within a sport, there are often limited resources for general physical development of skills like coordination, speed, flexibility, and strength.

In the fitness industry, most current training resources focus on adolescent athletes. Historically, this has been the largest youth demographic seeking fitness professionals. More and more, personal trainers are beginning to work with large numbers of pre-pubescent children who may or may not have any interest in sports participation. The heightened neural and synaptic plasticity of this age group highlights the importance of early training in foundational motor skills that can lead to more competent movers for a lifetime. Practical strategies and developmentally appropriate resources for working with these kids have been nearly non-existent.

Until now.

SPIDERfit has created a multi-faceted developmental youth program for all professionals committed to improving the fitness of today’s youth. This revolutionary model is based on a world-wide culmination of years of research and best practices from physical education, child development, pediatric medicine, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and the professional fitness establishment.
