Continuum Performance

Programs

Structured training, written down

Defined grade range, session length, and written learning objectives for every program. Book a single session or a month at a time.

Open registration — all programs

Every program is open to any athlete who registers — no tryouts, auditions, assessments, testing, or prerequisites. Movement screening happens inside the first session as a coaching tool, never as a condition of entry.

Grades 2–5

Athletic Foundations

Fundamental movement skills for younger athletes.

Grade range
2–5
Session length
45 minutes
Sessions
1, 2, or 4 a month
Group size
Small group

Game-based, coach-led sessions building coordination, body awareness, and control in space. Nothing is loaded and nothing is rushed.

Learning objectives
  • Perform fundamental locomotor skills — running, skipping, shuffling, galloping — with coordinated form.
  • Demonstrate a stable squat, hinge, push, and pull pattern using body weight only.
  • Land from a two-foot jump with soft knees, hips back, and balanced control.
  • Identify and demonstrate basic body-awareness concepts: balance, base of support, and posture.
  • Follow multi-step movement instructions and safety rules in a group setting.
  • Cooperate with peers and participate positively in partner and small-group activities.

Grades 6–8

Youth Athletic Development

The three-pillar framework, tiered by readiness.

Grade range
6–8
Session length
60 minutes
Sessions
1, 2, or 4 a month
Group size
Small group

The three-pillar framework on a tiered progression, so a first-time athlete and an experienced one work the same session at different levels. Load comes after the pattern is clean.

Learning objectives
  • Demonstrate technically sound squat, hinge, lunge, push, and pull patterns under age-appropriate load.
  • Apply bracing and breathing mechanics to stabilize the trunk during resisted movement.
  • Execute acceleration and sprint drills with correct posture, shin angle, and arm action.
  • Progress through a plyometric sequence from controlled landings to hops and bounds.
  • Explain the purpose of a warm-up and independently complete a general warm-up sequence.
  • Track personal progress month to month and describe improvement in their own terms.
  • Demonstrate training-floor etiquette: spotting, equipment care, and respectful communication.

Grades 9–12

High School Strength & Conditioning

Periodized training for in-season and off-season athletes.

Grade range
9–12
Session length
60 minutes
Sessions
1, 2, or 4 a month
Group size
Small group

A periodized block that treats the competitive calendar as part of the plan, with deliberate attention to the deceleration and landing mechanics tied to lower-body injury risk.

Learning objectives
  • Execute compound lifts with sound technique and self-select appropriate working loads.
  • Describe and apply progressive overload across a multi-week training block.
  • Demonstrate sprint acceleration and max-velocity mechanics at high intent.
  • Perform deceleration and change-of-direction patterns with controlled knee and hip alignment.
  • Complete a plyometric progression from bilateral to unilateral and reactive work.
  • Monitor training intensity using effort-based scales and communicate readiness honestly.
  • Explain how recovery, sleep, and nutrition affect training adaptation and performance.
  • Take ownership of an individual warm-up and mobility routine.

Grades 6–12

Speed & Agility

Sprint mechanics as a coachable skill.

Grade range
6–12
Session length
45 minutes
Sessions
1, 2, or 4 a month
Group size
Small group

Focused work on running fast and changing direction without losing speed. Short and high-quality, with full recovery so every rep is a good rep.

Learning objectives
  • Demonstrate an efficient acceleration position: forward lean, positive shin angle, and full extension.
  • Apply upright sprint mechanics including front-side arm action and active foot strike.
  • Decelerate from a sprint under control using a progressive braking pattern.
  • Execute lateral shuffles, crossover runs, and cut mechanics with balanced alignment.
  • React to a visual or auditory cue and change direction without a preparatory step.
  • Explain why full recovery between sprint efforts is required for speed development.

All ages

Adaptive Athletic Development

Inclusive programming built around the individual athlete.

Age range
All ages
Session length
45 minutes
Sessions
1, 2, or 4 a month
Group size
1:1 or small group

Individualized training for athletes with disabilities or differing physical needs, planned around the athlete’s goals, sensory and communication preferences, and any guidance from their family or care team.

Learning objectives
  • Participate safely and successfully in a structured physical activity session.
  • Demonstrate improvement in individually selected movement goals — which may include strength, balance, gait, coordination, or endurance.
  • Build familiarity and comfort with a consistent training routine and environment.
  • Communicate effort, fatigue, and preference using a supported method that works for the athlete.
  • Develop independence in one or more components of the session over time.
  • Experience physical activity as enjoyable, dignified, and their own.

All ages

1:1 Individualized Training

One athlete, one plan, full coaching attention.

Age range
All ages
Session length
60 minutes
Sessions
1, 2, or 4 a month
Group size
1 athlete

Private sessions for athletes who want undivided attention, are returning after time away, or have a goal that doesn’t fit a group block. Scheduling is flexible.

Learning objectives
  • Meet individually defined goals set with the athlete and family at the start of training.
  • Demonstrate correct technique on every movement in the athlete’s current program.
  • Understand the purpose of each block of their training plan and why it was chosen.
  • Develop the ability to train independently between coached sessions.
  • Build durable habits around warm-up, effort regulation, and recovery.

All ages · Remote

Programming Only

The written plan, without the coached sessions.

Age range
All ages
Delivery
Written, remote
Workouts
8 a month
Group size
Individual plan

A training program written for one athlete and sent to them each month, built around their sport, training age, and whatever equipment they actually have. Revised month to month from their feedback and progress. There are no coached sessions in this option — it is the plan, not the coaching.

Learning objectives
  • Execute a written training program independently with sound technique.
  • Interpret sets, reps, tempo, and effort prescriptions without supervision.
  • Self-regulate load and intensity using effort-based scales.
  • Substitute movements appropriately when equipment or space is limited.
  • Record completed work and report progress accurately month to month.
  • Explain the purpose of each block of their plan.

How sessions run

The same shape, every time

Every session follows the same sequence, scaled to the athlete.

01

Warm-up

Movement prep, mobility, activation. Athletes learn to run it themselves.

02

Speed & plyometrics

Sprints, jumps, and landings while the nervous system is fresh.

03

Strength

Primary and accessory work, coached rep by rep.

04

Finish & review

Conditioning where appropriate, then a short debrief.

Where sessions happen

At an agreed location across Irvine and greater Orange County — park, field, home gym, or facility. I bring the equipment.

Getting started
