“These programmes facilitate an athlete to search within themselves for the answers and resources they require to be limitless and meet their aspirations. Together we pioneer new levels of performance, not just for competitive gains, but for mastery of our sport and discovering its untapped potential”

Dennis Newton, ADP Freestyle Coach / Mentor

ATHLETE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME (ADP)

The ADP programme is a personalised coaching programme designed for both athletes / teams, and has assisted many athletes (in K1, C1 and SQRT) in becoming World Champions.

You’ll work closely with world renowned coach Dennis Newton on a one-to-one basis to get the most from your training, and steer clear of the training pitfalls such as: injury, overtraining, self-doubt and plateaus in training or performance.  Dennis will work with you to formulate your own unique training plan that helps track your training and performance progress. In addition, you’ll have access to the ADP/ASP group App and regular remote coaching via e-communication to help you through the journey to competition readiness.

We work in partnership to assist you in self-directing your own development through three main areas:

  • Self-awareness – having a good awareness of your own strengths, weaknesses, values, motivations, emotions and learning preferences.
  • Resilience – managing change and dealing with challenges or adversity and setbacks.
  • Openness to learning – seeking advice and feedback, working on weaknesses and engaging in meaningful practice and learning.

As part of the programme we’ll work together to select competitions or events in the calendar to suit your performance and training needs. Once we have established the competitive schedule the ADP training programme will then be periodised within your annual training plan.

The programme will track your progression throughout the year (through the ‘ride flow’ tracker tool); benchmarking skill and performance levels against normative data to review and adjust the programme to develop and prepare you to ultimately deliver your best competition performance.

The ADP programme content is specifically adapted to the unique needs of each athlete, considering the technical, tactical, physical and psychological elements required to realise their best performance.

“I’ve always been focused on enhancing lifestyle through our sport, and this has shaped my athlete development approach. Dream big, work towards being a world champion or more importantly, a pioneer in your own right.”
