Team Pass | Performance Series: Speed & Hurdles Clinic
Register a middle or high school team for the October 24–25 Speed & Hurdles Clinic. Select your total number of athletes below. Your team’s full price and included Coach Shadow Passes will appear before checkout. One school representative completes the purchase; a separate consent form is required for every athlete.
Your next breakthrough starts with better mechanics.
Train with Hurdle Science founder Marlon Odom and Brooklyn Speed & Power co-founder Richard James at this two-day Speed & Hurdle Clinic for middle school, high school, and collegiate athletes. Build stronger sprint and hurdle mechanics, improve rhythm and movement efficiency, and take more confidence into every practice and race.
You will work on:
Sprint mechanics and acceleration
Hurdle mechanics and rhythm
Movement efficiency and body position
Technical progressions and event-specific drills
Confidence for training and competition
Featured coaches:
Coach Marlon Odom is the founder and CEO of Hurdle Science, a technical program focused on the biomechanics of hurdling, sprinting, and strength training. He is a four-time Collegiate All-American at Texas Tech, a three-time West Regional Champion, a Big 12 indoor hurdles champion, and a three-time Big 12 outdoor 110-meter hurdles champion. He previously led German National sprints and hurdles in Stuttgart, Germany.
Coach Richard James is a 2004 Olympian, World Indoor Champion, NCAA All-American, and co-founder of Brooklyn Speed & Power. He holds a master’s degree in Exercise Physiology and has developed four Olympians and more than 25 Northeast Conference championship teams through his work in Division I sports performance.
