5th Grade Studies Science of Sports, Visits Edge for Adapt Training

Tandem 5th graders have been studying the science of sports, and recently spent a session at Edge Studio participating in one of their ADAPT program training sessions for youth. With teachers Carolena Saunders and Matt Caduff accompanying them, the students worked out with ADAPT leaders, analyzing the science of what their bodies were doing. The ADAPT team shared two hours of their time with the Tandem 5th grade!
The ADAPT training system used by Edge is "designed to build a better athlete from the ground up, with progressions that span athletic development from ages 7-18. Early progressions focus on learning how to move efficiently while increasing strength and speed, so the athlete is equipped to play a variety of sports." 

Many thanks to Edge and their ADAPT program for sharing their time and expertise with our young scientists.
