MIDDLE SCHOOL
SPARC Middle School programs emphasize proper movement patterns over loading weights. The programs run for 60-75 minutes. Athletes will learn proper warm up prior to the start of training. After the warm-up our coaches will guide them through a speed and agility session. These sessions teach change of direction, first step quickness, jump mechanics, and overall coordination. Sessions conclude with strength training to reinforce optimal motor patterns.
The Middle School Sports Program runs Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 4:15pm to 5:15pm. It costs $125 per month.
HIGH SCHOOL
SPARC High School programs reinforce movement patterns taught in the middle school program. This program runs for 90 minutes and includes a warm-up, speed and agility, strength training, and conditioning.
