Dear Coaches, Trainers, Physical Therapist and Fitness Professionals,

 

Have you been looking for a no-fluff clinic that will tell you everything you want to know about training athletes to be faster? Then you must attend The Athletic Speed Formula. I have personally attended many clinics, workshops and seminars where I didn't learn what I was hoping for and left with questions still unanswered. Well, I have designed The Athletic Speed Formula to be a tell-all seminar that will give you a proven system to help your athletes succeed. I am going to spill the beans about everything I have learned on developing better athletes over the past twenty years. This is information I wished someone had taught me in the beginning.

Why Should You Attend? 


This seminar will give you the essential knowledge and tools you need to analyze, breakdown, teach, and adjust for any situation whether you are working with experienced or inexperienced athletes, healthy or injured athletes, in small or large spaces (and the list goes on).

 

You will gain theoretical and practical knowledge through lectures and discussions with myself, observations of Lee Taft Speed Academy programs as well as hands-on experience with athletes and even performing the skills yourself.

 

This will be the best speed seminar you've ever attended! What you will learn at this seminar, you'll learn no where else.

 

Here's what a few of last year's participants said... 

 

"Thanks for a most enjoyable weekend.  It was interesting to meet with you in person and to share thoughts on speed, agility, and quickness.  as a physical therapist I have incorporated many of your techniques and ideas into what i do on the rehabilitation end. With my ACL injuries I always incorporate a progressive back to sports jump training program before clearing my athlete's to return to full activity.  In the past I have always felt that there was a component of agility that needed to be added which I have found in what you have taught. Since adding what you preach to my return to sports jump training protocol I have seen tremendous gains in athletic positioning and control with higher speed activities.  Not only are my athlete's better prepared physically to return to sports but more importantly they are better prepared psychologically for the skills they need to exhibit to be competitive.  Thanks Lee for helping me find the missing link!"

"The Lee Taft seminar is one of the best seminars I have been to, being a physical therapist and owning my own clinic and sports training center I’ve been to a lot of seminars.  Lee has excellent people skills and taught us the basic fundamental skills and drills and progressed us to more advanced movement patterns and drills for speed, agility and strength.  He is at the top of his game and at the same time is very humble."

"In the beginning, let my point out that I'm really glad to attend the “Athletic Speed Formula”. Lee Taft is simply one of the most inspirational people I have met. Aside from his expertise and knowledge, which are extensive, his passion for speed training is in hi level. The way he organizes and disseminates information makes it beneficial for people at all levels and in all areas of coaching. I advise everyone, if you are a trainer or coach, to learn from this man and his professional staff as much knowledge and tactic as you can."

Sincerely,

What Will You Discover? 


You will learn a system You will learn a system of techniques and skills you need to start working with athletes. You will leave a better communicator and will understand the mechanics behind teaching skills as well as when to be an observer and not say anything. 

 

The real goal of any program is to set your athletes up for success. I have a proven system that will do just that.

 

You will learn:

  • How to assess athletes in order to gain an optimal training environment.

  • An efficient warm-up system to prepare athletes for performance and reduce injury potential.

  • How to develop proper landing and foot placements through repeating balance and stability training.

  • How to properly teach, as well as, not over teach deceleration and acceleration. 

  • How to correctly teach lateral acceleration and quickness skills.

  • How to teach cutting techniques to instantly improve your athletes' speed and quickness.

  • How to teach jumping and landing skills to protect from injury and achieve an explosive body position. 

  • A fool-proof way to evaluate your athletes' agility and movement instinct.  

  • How to analyze and beak down faulty sprinting mechanics.

  • Teaching progressions and cues to produce great multi-directional speed athletes.

  • How to trick athletes into proper movement patterns that will be engrained into their motor programs.

  • How athletes strength train at Lee Taft Speed Academy. 

  • Believe it or not, much more!

"After attending Lee Taft's Athletic Speed Seminar I have a whole new outlook on speed training. To see in person how enthusiastic and professional Lee is when talking about speed, his peers and his inspirations it certainly rubs off on you and gives you the same enthusiasm when you leave. I could not wait to start my next practice session when I left the seminar to try the wonderful new skills, drills and strength training exercises I learnt as well as the different coaching methods. I would recommend anybody who is seriously interested in learning and developing their interests in speed to attend one of his seminars, it has certainly opened my eyes to speed training."
