Gryphons Performance Academy

The Gryphons Performance Academy, led by head Strength & Conditioning Coach Josh Ford, offers community athletes the opportunity to train like a Gryphon. Using principles from the Long Term Athlete Development Model, athletes will receive age-appropriate training in areas such as energy system development, strength, speed, power, movement competency, balance, coordination, agility, mobility, flexibility, and proper recovery strategies. The goal is to improve physical capacities, promote health and wellness, build confidence, and reduce injury rates. The academy emphasizes inclusivity, encouragement, and personal growth, and instills the values of caring, determined, respectful, engaged, and authentic. Sessions will have a coach-to-athlete ratio of at least 1:10 and will be led by experienced coaches and current Gryphon varsity athletes.
