Dragon Performance Training


Youth / Youth Camps -
Winter.Spring 2026

Course Description

Dragon Performance Training helps youth athletes improve their physical abilities, so that they can have the best sports performance possible. By focusing on speed and strength as well as injury prevention, we can create positive results in each athlete. Each athlete will be tested with different metrics at the start and end of the month using Dashr technology. This technology will provide athletes with their speed in MPH, their vertical jump, and their pro agility times. The instructor tailors performance training for the student athletes.
