Coaching Consulting
Our Tristar ELITE Coaching represents the very best in one to one instruction with our pro coaches. We start off by getting to know you one to one.
Lets get started! All Tristar Athletes start off with an initial consultation with their prospective coaches, by FaceTime, phone or google hangout and in person when possible.
We begin by learning about you and your goals and develop a season plan to best fit your needs. With your Tristar Coach you will go over your health histories, strengths and weakness in the planning stages for your future development. Prior to meeting with your coach you will need to have paid for you consult here and also fill out our athlete questionnaire by clicking HERE. Fill out as much as you can and take your time, no need to rush it back to us. This will help our coaches get to know you and the “rules to your game”. Once we have both your questionnaire and payment submission you will be contacted within 24hrs to setup a meeting time.
