Sprint technique
This is one of the key elements in improving the speed of the performer. By using an efficient technique the performer can harness the strength and power that they already have, enabling them to run faster. This element has such an immediate effect that the performer is keen to train and learn more about the other elements of the training programme. The psychological effect of running faster results in an increase in confidence.
