The sessions I completed with Dean were extremely beneficial to my game on the basketball court. Dean is a first class coach who has experience in coaching a wide range of athletes from a variety of sports. The sessions were efficient, enjoyable, varied and sport specific. I would highly recommend Speed Solutions to any sportsperson who wants to improve their speed, agility and running mechanics, with the help of a terrific coach!

I worked with Speed Solutions during pre-season to get in the best shape possible and to improve my overall speed on the pitch. In just a few sessions, Dean had helped me to alter my running mechanics, making me much more efficient and able to get more out of each stride. Speed is a big part of my game and I've learnt a lot that I can use on the pitch.

Dean at Speed Solutions is exceptional. I have worked with him for 7 years now and his attention to detail, research and preparation to customise my training to be basketball specific has allowed me to perform at the highest level on an International stage. I could not recommend Dean highly enough and credit him with much of my success.

I have worked with Dean for over 7 years and I could not recommend him highly enough nor give him enough credit in relation to my success in my sport. Although I am no longer working with Dean on a weekly basis as I am now based in college in the US, every time I'm home I look forward to getting back to Speed Solutions and Dean for a review and new ideas to enhance my athletic development.

5***** can not recommend Speed Solutions enough. A professional service from start to finish. Suitable for any sports player looking to improve their speed. Dean is a professional, approachable knowledgeable and highly experienced. His sessions are varied, sport specific and tailored to each person. Highly beneficial for individuals, small groups or teams looking to gain that extra edge.

Top level coaching from Dean. He really helped me to get quicker, more agile and improve my running mechanics. The knowledge and guidance I got from Dean in just a few weeks of working with him has really improved my game. I would highly recommend working with him to any individuals or team sport players.

I have worked with Dean for over 7 years and I believe that without that privilege, I would not be where I am today. Dean always ensured to research my sport and my position, which allowed him to create workouts specific to my needs. He has been an amazing support to me throughout my entire journey and I genuinely cannot recommend him enough!

Started with Dean as I was keen

to work on improving my acceleration and running mechanics. With the simplest cues & technique pointers, I noticed a considerable difference in all aspects I wanted to improve! I would definitely advise any sportsperson to reach out to Dean as it undoubtedly has helped me!

My two eldest sons (8 and 10 years old) have been attending Dean’s sessions and have responded so well to his friendly, measured and professional coaching style. Dean ensures that his drills are perfectly tailored to their age and stage of development with sessions being innovative, challenging and (most importantly) really enjoyable. The improvement in the boys’ speed and running technique in such a short space of time has been really impressive!

I would strongly recommend this to anyone who is keen to improve their running technique and speed, whatever your chosen sport. My boys are absolutely loving it, and are already reaping the benefits!

I started my son (11) with Dean following a recommendation from a friend. Alfie had experienced a growth spurt and found his running technique was a bit off and felt he was slower on the field.

After a couple of sessions, we were immediately seeing the benefit of Dean’s work. The level that he was able to pitch his instruction was ideal for Alfie’s age, and whilst also benefitting physiologically, he certainly benefitted psychologically from the sessions. They were a good deal of fun which was one of the main factors in getting full engagement from Alfie.

I couldn’t recommend Dean highly enough; not just the content of his work but also how he interacts with Alfie and creates sports-specific scenarios to help his development.
