Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
When working with a prospect, the most important aspect of the entire process is building a rapport. At this point in time, athlete's have potentially struggled with various skills , so the importance of instilling confidence in them before any training begins is essential to their success. Nevertheless, prior to scheduling sessions, I like to meet with the student and/or parent(s). We work hand in hand to build their specialized plan of action. Athletes create a detailed description of their current skill sets and their desired results. Next, we come up with a set of goals and how to implement the plan of action appropriately in order to accomplish said results. This plan depends on the immediate needs of the athlete , but many plans include some sort of accommodation to pre and post-session communication in order to track progress.
