Overview
As the largest provider of sports performance training in the
nation, Velocity Sports Performance offers training in a positive,
safe, and professional environment. With training systems designed by
our Founder, Coach Loren Seagrave, and his team of expert coaches,
Velocity Sports Performance offers programs that athletes can't find
anywhere else. At Velocity Sports Performance training centers,
athletes in every sport, at all ages and all skill levels, have the
opportunity to improve speed, agility, mobility and flexibility, and
energy systems, while reducing the risk of sports-related injuries. Our
proven training, elite curriculum and professional equipment allow
children 8-18 and active adults the opportunity to train like the pros.
Our mission is to make the joy of athletic achievement attainable to all. When we ask our athletes, "Why Do You Train"? we want to hear more than "to get faster" or "to play five minutes longer." What gets an athlete on the field for four hours of grueling practice? Is it desire? Belief? What keeps a second-string player practicing long after practice has ended? Pride? Determination?
The Velocity Sports Performance Values - or V-Truths - are the result of our intent to become more than just another sports training company. And as the largest provider of sports performance training in the nation, "just another" isn't an option. Our V-Truths - Desire, Belief, Character, Determination, Heart, and Pride - guide everything we do and say, how we train our athletes, and how we run our business. These values permeate our entire organization, from the CEO to our coaches, from our customers to our franchisees, making us one of the most positive, passionate places for both kids and adults to experience the joy of athleticism.

Products & Services
Velocity Sports Performance offers training programs for anyone
and everyone, regardless of age, gender, skill level, or athletic or
fitness goals. Our core programs are designed for youth, middle school,
high school, and elite athletes, as well as adults and teams. Training
in small groups ensures maximum one-on-one attention.
Youth (Ages 8-11)
During this important time in a child's life, youth athletes are in their "skill-hungry" years. The body is primed for new information and ready to ingrain new movement patterns. The Youth program is conducted in 60 minute sessions and designed to introduce and create foundations of overall athleticism in a fun, positive, and high-success environment.
Our Youth curriculum places a high priority on running technique, athletic coordination, balance and relative strength and the introduction of essential muscular movement patterns. These are vital in establishing a child's athletic foundation for improved performance, injury prevention, and long-term enjoyment of sports participation.
Developmental I (Ages 12-14)
In this second stage, athletes have discovered the importance of developing neuromuscular patterns. Athletic fundamentals begin to be developed and directed towards athletic skill application in our Developmental I program. This program focuses on progressing and maintaining athletic movement while refining and ingraining fundamental skills of speed, agility, and power. This repeated rehearsal leads to permanent and positive athletic change.
The inclusion of formal Strength and Power training during the 90 minute sessions provides benefits in two ways. First, proper movement techniques with increased force production lead to maximized potential. Secondly, as athletes naturally increase in height, weight, strength and aggressiveness, the need for improved joint integrity is vital for reducing the chance of injury.
Developmental II (Ages 15+)
Most athletes in this age group have developed neuromuscular patterns and the fundamental skills of speed, agility, and power. For Developmental II athletes, technique is fine-tuned, and the final pieces to build the total athlete are provided. In essence, each athlete is optimized according to their biggest areas of improvement. During the 90 minute Developmental II sessions, training begins to resemble sporting demands. Developmental II programs focus on repeated application of learned athleticism to create mastery. We provide endless combinations of athletic skill training so competing in the game is effortless. In addition, focus on Strength and Power increases with moderate and heavy loads to optimize power output.
Adult Program
Our Adult Program sessions are designed for active adults looking for a challenging training program. The Adult program is designed to actively challenge effort and coordination with 60 minute movement-based sessions. No two sessions are alike, and all are fun, fast-paced, and educational, which is unique compared to a traditional gym-based workout. The result is an increase in fitness as well as improved metabolism, body composition, and exercise technique.
Professional / Elite Athletes
The Velocity Sports Performance programs for professional and elite athletes are designed to provide peak physical stimulus that pushes the absolute limitations of elite athletic performance. Due to the customized and maximal intensity nature, recovery and regeneration methods are implemented. Our programs place the highest emphasis on applied and measurable performance, secondarily fine-tuning movement. Timelines to reach goals and exceed expectations are accelerated for this athletic population due to the elite competitive schedules and real-time demands.
Team Training
Our Team Training programs are designed to deliver a challenging workout that is organized, educational, progressive, and customized for entire sport teams. Training sessions are typically conducted at the team's training facility and focus primarily on linear speed and multi-directional skill development. Team Training programs are built to be sport relevant with medicine ball strengthening, bodyweight resisted power development, energy system development, and speed ratios that apply directly to specific sports demands.
