Sports Performance Training at The Chatham Club

Strength - Movement - Balance
A Methodical Approach to Sports Performance Training
Doug Sellmann - SPT Director,
MEd, MSS, NASM, NSCA
for athletes 12 years of age and older
 
 
We are proud to introduce you to our new department: 
Sports Performance Training 
at The Chatham Club. 

 

 

When describing the physical attributes that contribute to athletic success, we focus on physical size, strength, power, endurance, speed, quickness, agility, movement skill, deceleration, balance, reactivity, aerobic power, anaerobic capacity, flexibility, coordination and body awareness.

 

Each sport requires a different combination of these physical characteristics for success. When designing sports performance programs for young athletes, it is important to match the appropriate skills with each sport's requirements, while also evaluating each athlete's strengths and weaknesses in the above areas. Young athletes need unique exercises that feed into the skill requirements of their sports. 

 

Our sports performance specialists have a full understanding of the science, training philosophy, exercise methodology, active coaching process, error detection, and athletic mechanics required to build more talented athletes. With this specialized knowledge, our sports performance trainers are in a powerful position to affect young athletes in a positive and rewarding way.

 
Our SPT program is available to members and non-members, 12 years of age and up.

Restorative Yoga Therapy Workshop

Restorative Yoga Therapy Workshop
with Barbara
 
"Rest quietly in the present moment and see clearly the peace that resides within"

Restorative Yoga helps to release the tension from your neck, shoulders, chest and upper back. 
The use of props - such as bolsters, blankets and chairs - supports the yoga poses 
allowing deeper sense of relaxation and stress release. 

Learning these simple techniques will increase your flexibility, and improve
your postural alignment and breathing.
