I brought my daughter in an average teenager and in less than a year Redline had turned her into a top performing athlete that started taking on extra sports that she never planned on doing. The culture and drive they promote in your young athlete is paramount to the development and gains that you won't get in larger groups typical at clinics. I'd highly recommend giving this a committed try and find out for yourself. Best gains for the dollar, by far.
My son, and 2 of the 3 athletes formed a basketball team, and, we ended up UNDEFEATED and champions of a local 13U league. Thanks to Coach Ed Fairley (basketball), Sports Performance Specialist David Range and Director Tyrone Howell! They are the anchors of my son’s and players fitness and mental well-being. They instilled confidence and growth…far more than I expected.
I have two boys attending sessions and they both really enjoy it. I appreciate that both were taught proper form of lifting and form for other exercises - the instructors constantly reinforce this or make corrections during workouts.
My daughter is 11 and has been going for about 6 weeks now. She absolutely loves it and looks forward to every session. Her speed ans athleticism has already increased! I love how easy the app is and that I can flex our account depending on what else is going on.
