TEAM TRAINING

Elite Performance Training for Your Team

At East Coast Movement Performance Institute, we’ve designed our small group training program specifically for existing teams and groups. With a maximum of 5 athletes (ideally 4) per session, we offer a unique opportunity for coaches and parents to bring their team members together for specialized training that enhances both individual performance and team chemistry.

The Team Advantage: Training Together, Excelling Together

Build Team Chemistry While Building Performance

When teammates train together, they develop more than just physical strength—they forge stronger bonds, better communication, and mutual accountability. Our small group format creates the perfect environment for teammates to push each other, celebrate improvements, and develop the trust that translates directly to better performance during competition.

Sport-Specific Training for Your Entire Team

Whether you coach soccer, basketball, lacrosse, field hockey, volleyball, or any other team sport, our programs are tailored to address the specific movement patterns, strength requirements, and injury prevention strategies most relevant to your athletes’ needs. Training as a unit ensures consistent skill development across your roster.

Consistent Methodology Across Your Team

When all players train under the same expert guidance, they develop a shared language and understanding of proper movement patterns. This consistency creates a foundation for better teamwork and reduces the confusion that comes from players following different training philosophies.

Advanced Technology Assessment Package

Reduced-Rate Team Evaluations

Teams that sign up for our small group training program receive a special reduced rate on our comprehensive initial evaluations. These assessments provide crucial baseline data for each athlete while identifying specific areas for improvement across the entire team.

Cutting-Edge Movement Analysis

Each team member receives a professional assessment using our advanced technology:

  • High-Speed Simi Movement Capture System: Provides detailed biomechanical analysis of sport-specific movements
  • AMTI Force Plates: Measures ground reaction forces, balance, and power output with scientific precision

 Sport-Specific Advanced Assessments

For Basketball Teams

Basketball players receive our specialized vertical leap assessment package:

  • Comprehensive jump mechanics analysis using motion capture
  • Force plate measurements of power production, asymmetries, and landing forces
  • Assessment of counter-movement efficiency and arm contribution
  • Identification of mechanical limitations affecting vertical performance
  • Customized recommendations to improve jumping height and landing safety

For Runners and Track Teams

Runners undergo our complete running analysis:

  • Full biomechanical gait assessment with high-speed motion capture
  • Stride length, cadence, and foot strike pattern analysis
  • Joint angle measurements throughout gait cycle
  • Impact force measurements via force plates
  • Running economy assessment
  • Identification of form issues contributing to injury or limiting performance
  • Customized footwear recommendations based on biomechanical data

For All Other Sports

Comprehensive sport movement & agility assessment including:

  • Detailed analysis of running, cutting, and jumping mechanics
  • Sport-specific movement pattern assessment

Why Teams Choose Our Small Group Training

 

Prevent Team-Disrupting Injuries

Our specialized focus on injury prevention—particularly for high-risk injuries like ACL tears—helps keep your team roster intact throughout the season. With approximately 60% of high school athletes who rupture their ACL never returning to their sport, our preventative approach is essential for team continuity.

Build Cohesive Performance Standards

When teammates train together, they establish shared performance benchmarks and a unified approach to fitness and movement quality. This consistency translates directly to more cohesive on-field or on-court performance.

Access to Elite Technology as a Team

Your group will benefit from our state-of-the-art equipment and technology not available elsewhere in the NJ/NY/CT tri-state area. This exclusive access gives your entire team training advantages typically reserved for professional athletes.

Special Focus for Female Athletes

Particularly beneficial for female teams, our programs address the unique biomechanical challenges that make female athletes five times more likely to experience ACL injuries than their male counterparts.

Ideal for All Team Sports

  • Soccer teams looking to improve agility, prevent knee injuries, and build endurance
  • Basketball teams focusing on vertical power, landing mechanics, and quick directional changes
  • Lacrosse/Field Hockey teams enhancing rotational power and lower body stability
  • Volleyball teams developing jumping and landing safety alongside explosive power
  • Football position groups building sport-specific strength and injury resistance
  • Baseball/Softball teams improving rotational mechanics and shoulder stability
  • Track teams enhancing running mechanics and injury prevention

Build Your Team’s Competitive Edge

Give your team the advantage of training together under expert guidance. With our maximum group size of 5 (preferably 4), each athlete receives personalized attention while developing alongside their teammates—creating both individual excellence and team cohesion.
