The Youth Coach Pro focuses on implementation and provides the magic- “how” to run a successful and sustainable youth program in your gym. 

The YCP begins with an implementation module that walks the Coach through how to set up and implement The Brand X Method® in their gym and then continues with hundreds of movement pattern and physical literacy videos as well as handouts to educate parents and new relevant articles and research for the coach. The YCP is updated and expanded on a regular basis.   The Youth Coach Pro Is the invaluable "How" portion of the Professional Youth Coach Certification and only available to Professional Youth Coaches.

Support for your coaching journey
