Faith-Based Athlete Development

FIRST MOVEACADEMY

Train. Believe. Build. Lead.

Developing athletes physically, mentally, and spiritually — and preparing them for life beyond sport.

What Is the First Move?

Every Journey Starts With a First Move.

The First Move is the decision to believe, commit, and take action — to believe before you see the result.

We believe every person has God-given gifts and potential that may not be visible yet. The First Move is taking the step of faith to develop those gifts through discipline, training, consistency, and action.

We believe. We train. We develop. We execute.

Faith is believing in what we cannot yet see while being willing to do the work required to develop it.

Performance Principles

PREPARE TO EXECUTE.

Eight connected principles shape how athletes move, process, respond, and perform.

01Movement+

The ability to control and efficiently move the body in every direction required by sport and everyday life — linear, lateral, rotational, acceleration, deceleration, change of direction, and multidirectional movement.

02Mobility+

The ability to actively move a joint or body segment through the range of motion needed to perform efficiently.

03Coordination+

The ability to organize different parts of the body to work together efficiently, connecting what athletes see, hear, feel, and do.

04Balance+

The ability to control the body while stationary and moving — especially when accelerating, decelerating, changing direction, battling for position, or striking a ball.

05Strength+

The ability to produce and control force. To be strong is to become fast.

06Power+

The ability to apply strength with speed, intent, and control.

07Reaction+

The ability to recognize information and adapt quickly to the demands of the moment.

08Execution+

Turning preparation into action when it matters. Athletes don’t get rewarded for knowing what to do. They get the opportunity to perform when they can execute.

Pillars of Faith · FMA Foundation

FAITH. DISCIPLINE. PURPOSE. CHARACTER. SERVICE.

Patience — Trust the Process

Patience is understanding that development takes time. FMA teaches athletes to remain committed to the process even when the results cannot yet be seen.

Faith allows us to believe.
Discipline keeps us moving.
Patience allows us to trust the process.

What Is an FMA Athlete?

More Than an Athlete.

An FMA athlete is more than an athlete who trains. They are committed to developing the body, mind, and character required to reach their God-given potential.

See. Think. Move. React. Respond. Execute.

They show up. They work. They learn. They make mistakes. They adjust. They keep it moving.

And they understand that what they learn through sport can prepare them for life beyond sport.
