A class designed specifically for the needs of women. Historically, strength programs supplied to women have been based on the needs of men. This class addresses the specific needs for women with the appropriate development of strength and power based on the latest exercise science. Our team has assisted hundreds of women across all phases of life with exercise programs and classes to improve physical performance in a safe, structured and effective manner.

Teen Athlete Performance (TAP)

A great program for teenage athletes commencing their performance development journey. Holistic in nature, this program introduces athletes aged 12-18 years to progressive training to develop strength, speed, agility, power, and mobility.

Athletes work in a small class setting under the guidance and supervision of a RIS performance coach to ensure safe and effective techniques are established. The TAP program commences with testing athletes utilising advanced technology such as force plates and tining gates to all coaches to monitor progress. Athletes are supplied with programming that can be progressed via the TeambuildRĀ app.
