Johnny's style is built on a system that takes all elements of athletic performance training like speed, power, movement skills and unconventional methods like foot strength and nervous system training and moves you through progressions and regressions of exercises based on your level. Through the training, Johnny teaches you how to move efficiently and challenge the systems in your body that produce faster and more explosive movements. In Johnny's mind, this is an art.

Prior to Coaching, Johnny played professional soccer for the Houston Dynamo (MLS) and was an All-American at Westmont College.
