Agility & Strength
Movement of the Month
Jump for Joy
This move is reserved for parents only.  It allows your body and mind to express enjoyment after the long summer, while possibly amazing your kids with the heights you reach.  It is a key exercise in parenthood, however, ensure you have warmed up prior to attempting it - at least by having one cup of coffee.  Once complete, allow yourself a chance enjoy the peace and quiet before the carpooling and homework begins.  

Details about the NEW Agility & Strength Program starting this fall will be released soon! 

College Commits & Recruiting Tips
