ATHLETES' PERFORMANCE 2010 EDUCATION COURSES
Separate Yourself
Since Athletes' Performance opened in 1999, strength and conditioning coaches, athletic trainers, physical therapists and personal trainers have asked how they could undergo the same training and programming as the elite athletes that train at Athletes' Performance. The Professional Mentorship Training Program meets this request, allowing industry professionals to immerse themselves in Athletes' Performance methodology and gain hands-on, practical experience in the application of these programs.
Education at Athletes' Performance emphasizes learning techniques by actually performing them - this is not an observation-only experience.
The experiences can be as physically challenging as you would like. All Athletes' Performance requests is that you participate to learn. These are not "get in shape" programs, but learning experiences that will be enhanced by your participation.
Learn. Participate. Achieve. Succeed. Separate.
PERFORMANCE TRAINING MENTORSHIP
