About the Coaches:

We (Dr. Mike Maggio and Valerie Hunt) are both certified Pose Method coaches and have over 18 years experience with Pose combined.  Our training groups are really focused on creating efficiency.  Through efficiency, greater speed and distance can be attained without pain or injury.  The quickest way to a personal record is through building an efficient athlete – one that can get the most out of their discipline.  Most injured athletes or athletes that experience pain are suffering due to improper motion.  We assess all of our athletes from a biomechanical standpoint and determine where extra (or improper) motion is present.  Once we understand where the problem is, we can work to correct it.  After the form and technique are improved or corrected the body can heal.  Depending on the athlete and the injury, we can usually treat the injury and fix the cause of the injury without a break in the training!

We keep our training fresh and interesting.  It’s not the same old – warm up, grind out a workout, cool down and go home – kind of workout that everyone else does.  We warm up, work on drill that will sharpen your form and technique, hit the workout (have a coach keeping an eye on form  for you), cool down and go home with some drills, stretches and/or strength training to work on before the next workout to help you with continured improvement.  This is why our athletes rarely get injured.  We train smarter – and go faster.
