What to Expect in Training:

Initial Evaluation:
The first session includes a comprehensive evaluation to assess strengths, weaknesses, and individual goals. This allows Damion to create a personalized plan of action tailored to the athlete’s current level and future objectives.

Fundamentals First:
Proper technique and body mechanics form the foundation of every session. Damion prioritizes the basics and fundamentals, understanding that incorrect form can lead to injury and hinder long-term progress. Mastery of movement is non-negotiable.

Dynamic Warm-Up:
Each session begins with a high-intensity dynamic warm-up designed to increase heart rate, activate muscles, and mentally prepare the athlete. Warm-ups are adjusted based on the day’s training focus to maximize effectiveness.

Progressive Challenge:
As athletes grow, sessions are progressively structured to push both mental and physical boundaries. Damion's goal is to move individuals out of their comfort zones—helping them discover inner resilience, develop confidence, and finish each workout with a sense of accomplishment.

Beyond the Session:
Progress doesn’t stop when the session ends. Damion provides at-home guidance and daily habits to reinforce training and ensure continuous improvement.
