Athletic Performance Training

Our performance program builds the qualities your sport demands: speed, power, strength, agility, resilience, using evidence-based methods and repeatable testing. You’ll follow a customized plan, retested regularly, so progress isn’t a guess – it’s measured.

• 1:1, 2:1 or coaching (contact us for small groups/team training & testing)
• Testing-driven programming and retesting every 4–8 weeks
• Sport-specific needs analysis and movement assessment
• Tools for reaction, speed, and power (OVR speed timing & jump/power testing, Blazepods)
• Clear goals, clear data, clear results

Start with a Free Athlete Consultation

If you’re coming to Ignite as an athlete or youth athlete, this is your starting point. Please choose the Athlete Consultation, not our general new-client consult. This will be your chance to tour our facility and also receive:

• A Sport Needs & Training History Review
• Postural / Stability / Movement Screen
• Goal setting + season timeline planning
• Intro baseline tests as appropriate

Outcome: your training roadmap + next steps for the Advanced Assessment.

Choose Between 1-1 Coaching or Small Group Training

Personal Training

At the start of your training program, you’ll complete a deeper, sport-specific assessment. Depending on your goals and sport, your testing battery may include:

• Maximum Power (e.g., jump height, take-off metrics)
• Linear Speed & Acceleration (10–40 yd/m splits)
• Change of Direction & Agility
• Maximum Strength (appropriate variations)
• Muscular Endurance
• Anaerobic & Aerobic Capacity
• Technical Benchmarks tied to your position/event

We use OVR for speed and power testing and BlazePod for reactivity and decision speed.  Results create your baseline and guide training.  We retest every 4–8 weeks.

Training Approach

• Customized program designed by Nicki around your sport calendar, then work with Nicki or any one of our other sports performance specialists.
• Strength, plyometrics, SAQ, mobility, and recovery tactics
• Technique coaching + workload management
• Return-to-performance progressions (when relevant)
• Ongoing data tracking to adjust and progress

Small Group Training (6 max participants)

Athletic Performance Classes

We have also recently added two Athletic Performance classes during the week on Wednesdays at 4:00p and Saturdays at 9:00am.

These are 60-minute small-group training classes for high school and collegiate athletes who want to improve speed, explosive power, strength, and overall athletic performance, led by our Director of Performance, Nicki Thurston.

Each session includes a combination of sprinting, change-of-direction work, explosive drills, strength training, and other exercises designed to improve the physical qualities that carry over to sport.

With a maximum of six athletes per class, participants get the energy and competitiveness of training with peers while still receiving individualized coaching, technique instruction, and appropriate progressions based on their needs and experience.

For student-athletes ages 14+

$35 per class ($30/class with a 5-pack)

Either the 1-1 personal training or group classes work great as a standalone option, and some athletes will prefer a combination of working privately with a coach and also with the group.

To get started for either personal training or group – the first step is to schedule a free athlete consultation. If you are interested in group, be sure to schedule with Nicki. If you are interested in 1-1 training, schedule with Nicki, Maximiliano, or Chase.

If you are interested in small group training, but do not see a class time that works for you, contact Nicki at fit.nick8@gmail.com.
