Something special is coming to Portland for girls’ volleyball this summer….

A One-of-a-Kind Comprehensive Volleyball Training Program that Guarantees Results in Jumping Higher and Developing a Lightening-Quick Spike and a More Intimidating, Powerful, and Consistent Serve!

We are looking for 24 volleyball players who are passionate about really improving their game. This isn’t the same old 3- or 4-day all-skills camp with a gym full of girls standing around all day – wondering and hoping to get some attention and learn something. This training program is for the serious volleyball player who has the burning desire to get better and achieve the goal of playing at a higher level.

Dear Fellow Volleyball Enthusiast,

I think we would all agree that quality volleyball instruction is hard to find. Private coaches are out there, but they often have little time or gym availability. There are a lot of clinics around town, but which ones will really help me or my daughter improve? If you are like me, you’ve wondered, “Am I going to spend hundreds of dollars for my daughter to be lost in a crowded clinic, hoping she picks up a new tip or two?” “How can I know this camp or clinic will be worthwhile?” “Where can we find thorough instruction that we can trust will be coming from qualified instructors and coaches?”

I am thrilled to have this opportunity to introduce myself and our exciting program to you. My name is Laura Mooney, and I am a mother of four children who have been very active in a variety of sports. Baseball, football, softball, basketball, soccer, water polo, golf, and of course, volleyball…You name a sport, and my kids have probably competed in it. The direction my life has taken as a result of helping my children follow their dreams continues to surprise me. Although my first career was as an elementary school teacher, I now find myself co-owner of BioForce Performance, Inc. with my husband, Bill. As our children pursued their athletic goals, we wanted to provide instruction for them that would improve their skills while minimizing the risk of injury. So we searched for the best available in sports training, and we have made strong connections with some of the top, elite trainers in the USA.

In the past several years, we’ve built a successful business offering high level training to baseball players in the Portland area as well as players from as far away as the Dominican Republic.

As our youngest daughter has been feeding a growing passion for volleyball and participating in club volleyball, we found that she received great instruction and team experience. But there was one thing missing. Something that is very critical in her development as a total player.

What was missing was the opportunity for her to develop her physical strength and conditioning along with improving her critical skills. She wants and needs to be able to jump higher, spike harder and control her hits in order to grow as fast as she would like as a volleyball player.

Most Volleyball Players Spend Their Training Time on Only One Leg of the Table

Our experience and education have taught us that there are four aspects to sports training no matter which sport you enjoy. Like a table, you need to be strong in all 4 legs of preparation to compete. In our unique, volleyball training program, we diligently work with the athletes in all four aspects of performance:

1) The mechanics of jumping, serving, and spiking

2) Proper conditioning to help you improve the mechanical side while minimizing the risk of injury

3) The mental and emotional strength to get you through the tough times and excel under the utmost pressure

4) And good nutritional habits to help you fuel your body to better prepare, compete, and recover from practice and competition.

Competition as you advance to higher levels becomes more and more fierce. If you want to move up…you’d better give yourself the greatest edge you can get.

In June, for the first time ever in Portland, Oregon, the great combination of technical volleyball skills, performance training, and motivational training team of KT Emerson, Rachael Wallace, Donn Dimond, Laura & Bill Mooney, and the BioForce staff are going to make certain 24 lucky young volleyball players and their parents are finally going to know (not guess or think or hope) on a daily basis if they are getting better, staying the same or regressing. Exciting stuff!

As a coach, there is truly only one way to really know if a player is getting better…

There are 3 steps you must take to really make a difference in the performance of an athlete.

1) Isolate the very specific performance criteria that make a true difference in performance.

2) Measure those criteria so each athlete knows exactly where she is now and how she can improve.

3) Track each athlete’s progress on a daily basis…which offers the athlete the SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT key to her development…and that is constant, high quality, specific feedback on the areas that REALLY make a difference to her ability to perform during competition.

Meet our All-Star Coaches

K.T. Emerson is currently the head varsity coach at Lake Oswego High School. She has an extensive background knowledge of the need for shoulder strength through working with professional trainers at Lake Oswego High School and the Division 1 University of Portland Pilots. One of the reasons K.T. is so passionate about helping young volleyball players excel at their sport and stay injury free is that she has personal experience with injuring her shoulder twice and recovering after surgeries in order to get back on the court. She doesn’t want this to happen to any of her students.

Rachael Wallace brings a very valuable and unique background to the BioForce program. She is a former Division 1 Pac-10 high jumper and javelin thrower at the University of Oregon. Since her days of competing, she has trained many high jumpers in camps and clinics through the University of Oregon. She continues to use her outstanding knowledge of jump training and arm strength development with the volleyball players she coaches at Lake Oswego High School.

Donn Dimond - We rely on our physical therapy expert in sports training, Donn Dimond Physical Therapist, for very thorough evaluations of the physical condition of our athletes. I like to call Donn the Bill Nye the Science Guy of our training program. He has an incredible knowledge of the physical requirements for training safely for sports - especially striking and throwing sports, which require a unique training program for the health of shoulders, elbows and arms. Donn also has valuable input for training your lower body to improve performance while protecting the knees of female athletes. And he puts it all into very understandable language. Donn says that you don’t have to worry about building bulky muscles from your training. We all know girls and boys are different. Pretty obvious. What most of us don’t know is that the muscle fiber in girls is different than in boys. Donn assures us that girls won’t end up looking like Arnold, but they do tend to like the shapelier body they get from the muscles they strengthen and tone.

I think most agree, we’ve assembled an All-Star team to train you like you’ve never been trained before!

I have experience with all three of our experts’ teaching styles personally. I feel you won’t find better teachers in their field anywhere in the Northwest…..and quite possibly the entire west coast.

Most Volleyball Academies in the USA today are run by very nice, very experienced volleyball people….BUT…

Our daughter has learned a lot from her high school and club team coaches, but they just don’t have the time to work on each individual girl’s strengths and weaknesses. Most coaches do a great job bringing teammates together to play as a team and teaching the game, the rotations, and the strategies of team play. But who has quality time to spend on both teaching skills and addressing each player’s specific weaknesses?

Here’s what K.T. has to say about the current state of preparation of volleyball players….

“The high school season is too short to spend time getting players' bodies prepared for the volleyball training that needs to take place at the very beginning of season. Players need to prepare themselves physically for the rigors of a high school and club volleyball season. As a high school coach, I know that players who spend the time taking care of their bodies through strength and quickness training compete at a higher level, avoid injury more effectively, and are able to spend more time focusing on other aspects besides the physical aspects of the sport during practice.”

The Creation of the BioForce Elite Volleyball
Training Program

Since we began our baseball academy a few years ago, we have helped hundreds of young athletes excel in their game. Our pitchers gain an average of 6.5 miles per hour on their fastball after only six weeks of training with us. If you aren’t familiar with baseball pitching, that’s a huge amount to gain in a short period of time. And that’s an average. Some of our more dedicated players have gained over 10 miles per hour. Those are the athletes who really embrace the system. Some of the athletes have only gained a couple of miles per hour. Usually those are the players who are not putting out the effort it takes to make great gains.

We have seen about 70% of our baseball students continue on to play college baseball...many with scholarships! Their success has been very rewarding to us. How did we help these players achieve their goals? Through a program similar to the Elite Volleyball Training we are offering to a select few players in the Portland area.

We improve their mechanics…..we improve their strength….we give them great tools to help their mental-emotional part of the game….and we provide them valuable nutritional information to help them prepare, compete, and repair.

Our dedicated students get results!

So, We Asked Ourselves, Why Not Provide Elite
Training for Volleyball, Too?

We will help you identify your strengths and weaknesses, and then we will give you a program to attack the weaknesses and measure your results. Pretty simple really. But it takes a focused effort on your part.

“It is a fact: you play at the level at which you practice. Consistently good practice leads to consistently good play. It sharpens your talent. Successful people understand this. They value practice and develop the discipline to do it. If you want to sum up what lifts most successful individuals above the crowd, you could do it with four little words: a little bit more. Successful people pay their dues and do all that is expected of them – plus a little bit more.”

~ John Maxwell, Talent is Never Enough

How do we define an Elite volleyball player?

It’s not how many select teams you’ve played on in the past. It’s not how old you are or how many all-league, all-team, or all- cul-de-sac awards you’ve won.

Elite, to us, is how passionate you are about volleyball. Do you have the burning desire to be the best volleyball player on your team? The best in your program? Because that’s what it really comes down to. Who is more passionate about being their best? Moving on to a higher level team? How about jump starting your college recruiting process into high gear if you are a serious high school player?

Remember, it’s not always the best athlete who wins or gets the position, but the athlete who is the best prepared.

“Passion can energize every aspect of a person’s life – including his talent. Have you ever known a person with great passion who lacked the energy to act on what mattered to her? I doubt it. A passionate person with limited talent will outperform a passive person who possesses greater talent.”

~ John Maxwell, Talent is Never Enough

Those are the girls we consider Elite. Is that you?

If you haven’t gathered it yet, our Elite Volleyball Training is about getting results.

If you are passionate about your volleyball training and follow our unique program, you can expect better results in…

• Increased velocity on your serves

• Improved accuracy with your serves

• An improved jumping ability

• A quicker and more aggressive spike

• A healthier and more durable shoulder, arm, and knees, and better recovery time

• Your Mental-Emotional approach to training and competition

• And all that is GUARANTEED. That’s right…our Elite Volleyball Training Program is 100% satisfaction GUARANTEED. Our program is THAT Good! We are the most comprehensive volleyball training program in Portland for a good reason…RESULTS…it works! But dollar-for-dollar, hour-per-hour, there’s nobody who has the quality and value of training that we do…

You Should Only Enroll in the Elite Program at
BioForce Under These 3 Conditions:

1) You have a burning desire to make big gains on your serve, spike, control, better movement, more durability, and jump higher, and are ready to make it happen starting the week of June 25th, 2007.

2) You are a serious volleyball player…(any position player, attackers, hitters, liberos..) this is NOT for the recreational volleyball player. If you are a dabbler, there are plenty of other instructors out there giving private lessons for you.

3) You want to excel at your current level and develop towards being a very successful high school or college level volleyball player.

BioForce WANTS only the Serious and the Committed for the Elite Training Program…But Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!!!

BioForce is currently taking applications for enrollment today. Enrollment in the Elite Volleyball Training Program is very limited and enrollment in our summer session will be limited to the first 24 selected applicants. Call (503) 644-5500 NOW to enroll.

We certainly understand summer is a time to kick back, relax, enjoy some sunshine. How can you both relax and enjoy the lazy days of summer? With our maximum flexibility schedule and group training, it ads both fun to the mix and allows you to get the things done during the summer you would like to do.

Elite Program Class Schedule

 BioForce Understands the Need for
Maximum Schedule Flexibility

My husband, Bill, and I are first and foremost parents. We understand all too well the challenges with scheduling, sickness, impromptu practices, church, homework, other sports, etc. No program in the area gives more flexibility to your volleyball athlete than BioForce.

Going on vacation and possibly missing a week? Don’t worry. We’ve even built in additional training time for those who have missed some class time during the 6 scheduled weeks.

BioForce Elite Volleyball Training Tuition

Knowing that, we have designed the program to give you the most flexibility with scheduling as well as the tuition. You have three options for tuition.

If you look at the extensive training we are providing, comparing our program with other lesson givers around town is like comparing apples to oranges. But, for pure comparison on costs, let’s look how much it the tuition is on a per-session basis.

Option 1 calculates out to $55 per hour of training plus you get special bonuses valued at over $375.

Option 2 calculates out to a little over $33 per hour of training plus you get special bonuses valued at over $375.

Option 3 calculates out to $25 per hour of training plus you get the great special bonuses valued at over $375.

Lesson fees for skill work only from very good coaches around town are typically priced around $60 per hour. That usually doesn’t include speed and agility training, overall body conditioning, and the extensive evaluations we do.

Our Elite Volleyball Training is based on our
results-oriented 6-week curriculum

Week of…

 **All weeks will include performance conditioning, speed and agility training, and core training along with the skill work.**

Do You Currently Get a Guarantee
at Your Lesson? I Bet Not!

I spoke earlier about our great guarantee. Here it is. If after the first week in the program, you aren’t absolutely thrilled by the Elite Volleyball training Program we will refund your money in full. No questions asked. Try getting a guarantee from any other Volleyball Club, academy or lesson giver…see for yourself what funny looks…or stuttered responses you get. Do you really want instruction from someone who won’t…or worse…can’t guarantee his or her teaching?

As they say on those late night infomercials
"... and that’s not all!"

Now, if you are thinking maybe I want to enroll, maybe not, let me tempt you a little bit more. As a thank you and introductory offer I will include 4 FREE bonuses (valued at over $375) to encourage you to act now.

Special Bonus #1 (Value of $200)

All participants in the Elite Volleyball Training will receive a free physical evaluation from our Physical Therapist/Performance Enhancement expert, Donn Dimond. Donn will take each volleyball player through an evaluation looking for strengths and weaknesses in critical areas of volleyball players - the knees, hips, core, shoulder, and elbow. This way, you’ll know where you’ll need to focus to improve and give yourself the best opportunity to make some huge gains…

Special Bonus #2 (Value of $130)

Before our class starts, one of our panel of experts will take you through a series of performance evaluations including a video analysis of your jumping and your serving - a great way to identify your strengths and weaknesses in your technique.

We will also take some critical measurements of your serve speed, current fitness levels, as well as your current jumping ability.

Special Bonus #3 (Value of $39.95)

To help you with your nutritional planning and evaluation, we will give you a copy of our BioForce Nutrition and Health Management Software (for Windows users only) - a great way to track your goals and plan for the future.

Time is ticking away…

Now, you’ll need to act fast. We only have spots for 24 volleyball players. We expect the program to fill up very quickly.

“I wish I would have looked into it sooner. My son has developed so much in just a few sessions that I wish I had started him a couple of years ago.”
