Ave Academy

Helping young athletes grow their game

A 12-week group program for ages 8–14 that builds the speed, strength and confidence every sport needs.

Young athletes learn to move the right way — how to run, jump, land and lift — coached by the same staff that trains high school, college and pro athletes. Kids leave stronger, faster and proud of the work.

What They Build

The foundation for every sport

Movement Quality

Clean mechanics first. Squat, hinge, land and change direction the right way.

Speed & Agility

Sprint form, footwork and quickness that shows up on game day.

Strength

Age-appropriate strength work that builds a durable, athletic body.

Injury Prevention

Knee, ankle and core control that keeps kids healthy and playing.

Confidence

Positive, demanding coaching. At The Ave, nobody says "I can't."

Discipline

Show up, work hard, finish strong — habits that carry into school and sport.

Built for Young Athletes

Real coaching, scaled to their age

Ave Academy uses the same philosophy we use with college athletes — just scaled for kids. Every athlete is coached, corrected and pushed at the right level.

FAQ

Common questions

Does my child need experience?

No. Every athlete is coached at their level, from first-timers to experienced players.

What if my child is 15 or older?

Athletes 15 and up get the most out of our Performance Training. Call us and we'll find the right fit.

What should they bring?

Athletic shoes, workout clothes and a water bottle. We have all the equipment.

Is it safe for young kids?

Yes. Movement quality comes first, every exercise is scaled to the athlete, and if form breaks, the set ends.

Can my child play in-season?

Absolutely. Ave Academy complements any sport and keeps athletes strong and healthy through the season.
