Fencing Camp
Just came back from working on a 2 day fencing camp in Grantham with various fencers. Two of the girls I train were on the camp, so it was good to see them in action. (Jenny McGeever is pictured).
The camp has been run in the past by Army personnel, and the two PTIs from Headley Court did an excellent job on the camp. Something you can rely on is professionalism and enthusiasm as well as being able to walk the walk.
We spent some time discussing fencing fitness and looking at what we would expect to see. Involved were the Coaches, the Physiotherapist, the PTIs, the physiologist – all of whom have been working for some time with this group- and some new faces who were looking at things from an outside perspective.
One thing I know is key is getting the athletes to buy in to what they are doing and to get them to do it at homework. Without the coaches or parents at a junior level it won’t happen.
Client Testimonials
Weston AGC
I first met James at a South West Gymnastic conference and thought he was superb then, and still do! James' ability to adapt to different sports and levels is excellent, and he is superb at getting his message across to different ages of gymnasts. He did a workshop at our club for our competitive gymnasts and it was superb, His work was of great value to a wide range of ages and levels, with a tremendous emphasis on posture and injury prevention. We have been able to put his training methods into practice and are seeing an improvement in the all round strength and fitness of our gymnasts.
