Testimonials

“Just wanted to say “thanks” and to let you know that we were really happy with our son Max’s training sessions that he participated in this summer with the Brampton Peewee lacrosse team.   Your methods of teaching proper running technique and conditioning for kids through games and competition seemed to take the drudgery out of training and helped contributed to the Team’s success.   The smiles and enthusiasm of the kids participating for an hour of dry-land training, following an hour of lacrosse practice every week, demonstrates the real success of your methods.”

“This past summer David worked with my son Garrett and his lacrosse team. Garrett looked forward to the weekly sessions and enjoyed David’s creative style of training that combines fun, learning and training.  David is a knowledgeable instructor who is able to communicate effectively with his students. Now that hockey has started I have noticed a significant increase in Garrett’s athleticism. He is stronger, more flexible and, importantly as a goalie, demonstrated a significant increase in agility. I would enthusiastically recommend David’s programs to anyone interested in improving their child’s sports performance.”

“Our son James has always been an active child but for years he was reluctant to join organized activities or take instruction. David Kittner changed all that. He provided our son with the positive, exciting and gentle encouragement James needed to succeed. Last year, after participating in David’s programs, our son decided to join a local softball house league. We have never seen him put such effort and commitment into a sport. He became a valued team member, despite his late start into the sport, and was awarded Most Improved Player at the end of the season. This winter he has taken weekly ski lessons. His attitude toward taking instruction and being part of a group has entirely changed for the better! Thank you David for having such a positive impact on our son!”

Julie Wood, Orangeville, Ontario

“The impact David has made in my child’s life has been nothing short of amazing. My son now enjoys being active like never before. He even took us to the park one day in the rain to run through obstacle courses he created himself. If you want a person who can truly help your child succeed, I highly suggest David’s program.  I couldn’t possibly imagine a better solution!”

“All four of my children had the opportunity to experience programs conducted by Athletic Foundations. I was never able to find a program that excited my children about physical activity until I met David. Through games and activities, my children were challenged yet had the time of their lives each and every week. The children really enjoyed the program and got essential and challenging exercises they would not have normally experienced. I would highly recommend David’s program to any parent who wants to turn their children on to physical activity and athletics.”

Carol Foullong, Orangeville, Ontario

“We would like to thank you, David, for the wonderful work you did with the Brampton Battalion Minor Peewee A hockey team this year.

We were very impressed with your approach to training youth and your methods, which introduced the boys to the fundamentals of athletics instead of concentrating on a particular performance discipline. The fact you focused on excitement through physical activity and sports is a new and fresh approach to training.

Your focus on participation and development on individuals and encouraging the kids to be the best they can be instead of being the best shows your compassion and attention to each child verses the group training process.

We believe by developing the child’s self esteem and confidence will result in the child understanding the team dynamic and reaching success through team work and sharing the successes as a group without individual focus or blame for failure.

By incorporating various team sports and activities, the child develops their athletic ability and experiences positive memories. Your focus on the three key foundations of athletics: movement, balance and strength, will act as a preventative measure to minimize potential injuries and will also expedite the healing process in the event of injury.

We appreciate your approach that develops both the physical and mental sides of our young athletes.”
