The Academy for Student Athlete Development: a high-performance sport program that provides equitable access to a full inclusive, dedicated training environment that unlocks the potential of aspiring student athletes. Abilities Centre is the only non-profit organization in Canada with a comprehensive approach to inclusion and accessibility. We develop a variety of innovative frameworks for programs revolving around pillars of health and wellness, social inclusion and economic participation that are replicable, scalable and customizable to the needs of local communities across Ontario and Canada. In recognition of the growing demand for quality, high performance sport programming and through the support of the Canadian Tire Jumpstart #SportReliefFund we are piloting a Special O Athlete Stream for individuals at ASAD London.
This stream will include in person Strength and Conditioning training that meets the needs of those athletes who require high performance training year-round. Understanding that schedules are difficult to manage, we are starting off with two days of in person training per week and full access to our training app called TrueCoach. Here you will find the rest of the workouts you can follow during the remaining days of the week. Whether they are mobility days, strength days or active recovery days the app will guide you through the necessary movements for your days apart from us.
Our strength coaches have been athletes themselves at the university and Olympic level and have been training not only students but professional athletes for a number of years. Their respect for all sport is incredibly high and we can't wait for you to meet them!
We are hosting 2 demonstration days in the month of December for athletes who want to learn more about the program and see if this is the right fit for them!
The demonstration days are scheduled for:
December 15th at 1:00-2:00pm
December 20th at 1:00-2:00pm
To register for a demonstration day, please email Josh at ASADLondon@abilitiescentre.org to hold your spot.
We would love to see you there and get a look at how ASAD can change your athletic career!
