Meet Dan!
Welcome to Rocket Performance! My name is Dan and I am a youth athletic development coach based in Wolverhampton and I am the founder of Rocket Performance. I am an Accredited Strength & Conditioning Coach (ASCC) with the United Kingdom Strength & Conditioning Association (UKSCA) and I have been coaching youth athletes all things long term athletic development since 2020. Since graduating from the University of Bath with a Master’s degree in Sport & Exercise Science I have gained over five years of experience working primarily in elite football within the academies at Wolverhampton Wanderers, Aston Villa and Southampton Football Clubs, helping their youth athletes develop strength, speed, power, mobility, change of direction, stability, movement quality and minimising their risk of injury.
I consistently hold myself to the standards that I would expect from each and every athlete that works with me. I strongly believe that this has helped me consistently develop trusting & honest relationships with youth athletes and their parents, allowing me to maximise improvements in athletic development & therefore their sports performance! Through a people first, athletes second approach I am confident that I can not only help develop good athletes, but more importantly I can help develop great young people too.
