The wonderful thing about Sheepdog Hybrid Training, and one of the reasons we are so passionate about this method of training is that it is for everyone. We are passionate about teaching people to move. It is about creating movement patterns that are essential to life and your well-being. Our 4 paths (Fitness, Sport, Physique and Power) are made to fit your goals and can be modified for an individual’s ability.

Do you offer Youth or Teen Strength / Sports Training?

Yes! We have multiple ways in which Kids & Teens can train at Sheepdog
Teens aged 13 & older are able to join our Sheepdog Hybrid Training Sessions after an individual assessment. Things we look for in teens considering group training sessions are ability to work independently, work ethic, current movement and ability to pick up on new movements. Contact us to schedule an assessment for your child. This is perfect for teens looking to get stronger and more athletic for their sports and to become more confident in the gym environment.
