Book Private Football Lessons with Coach Durand

With a lifelong passion for sports, I bring the discipline and expertise gained from competing in track and field, football, and basketball to my personal training approach. My experience as a multi-sport athlete has given me a deep understanding of performance, endurance, strength, and teamwork.

How I Can Help Improve Your Game

Sport-Specific Training: I tailor workouts to match the physical demands of your sport, focusing on speed, power, endurance, and flexibility.

Strength and Conditioning: Build the strength and explosiveness needed to dominate your game, whether it’s jumping higher, running faster, or hitting harder.

Agility and Quickness: Enhance your reaction time, balance, and footwork to outmaneuver opponents and perform with precision.

Injury Prevention: I emphasize proper techniques and functional training to reduce the risk of injury, so you stay on the field or court longer.

Mental Toughness: Develop confidence, focus, and resilience to excel under pressure and push through challenges.

No matter your current skill level, I’ll work with you to identify areas for improvement and create a plan to take your performance to the next level. Together, we’ll unlock your full potential!

What a Typical Session Looks Like

Every session is customized to meet your specific goals, but here’s what you can generally expect:

Warm-Up: We’ll start with dynamic stretches and mobility exercises to prepare your body for optimal performance and reduce the risk of injury.

Skill Development: Focused drills targeting sport-specific skills like speed, agility, strength, or explosiveness. For example, improving sprint mechanics for track or footwork for basketball.

Strength & Conditioning: A combination of functional strength training and conditioning exercises to build power, endurance, and resilience.

Cool-Down & Recovery: We’ll end with static stretching, foam rolling, and recovery techniques to enhance flexibility and reduce muscle soreness.

Progress Check & Feedback: I’ll provide constructive feedback and discuss adjustments for your next session to ensure consistent improvement.

Each session is designed to challenge you, keep you engaged, and move you closer to your goals. My goal is to make every workout productive, motivating, and fun!

The best coach i ever had would have to be my track coaches in high school. What made them the best wasn’t just their knowledge of the sport—it was their ability to truly see the potential in every athlete and bring out the best in each of us. They never played favorites and treated everyone with respect, no matter their skill level.

They had this unique way of turning every challenge into an opportunity for growth. For example, during one particularly tough season in track and field, I struggled with my technique in hurdles. Instead of focusing on my mistakes, they broke the movement down step by step, gave me extra practice time, and always encouraged me with positive feedback.

Beyond training, they cared about us as people. They’d check in on how school, life, or anything else was going, always reminding us to aim high, not just in sports but in everything we did.

Their belief in me made me believe in myself, and that’s something I’ll carry with me forever.

As a former athlete with a background in track and field, football, and basketball, I understand the dedication, discipline, and focus it takes to excel in sports. Competing in these sports taught me the importance of proper training, teamwork, and mental toughness—values I now bring to every training session.
