Explosive Movement Training
Our aim is to build and inspire young people to enhance their overall fitness, grow in confidence and fulfil their passions and dreams.
Curriculum
The curriculum has been carefully devised to ensure that the children are equipped with the knowledge and understanding of how to safely perform exercises and spot their peers.
Within our curriculum we use a proven performance method down as French Contrast Training.
French Contrast Training is a strength and conditioning method designed to improve how quick the body can produce force- which is essential for sprinting jumping, tackling and changing direction in sports such as football and rugby.
This method combines:
-
A strength-based movement
-
Followed by an explosive movement
-
Then a lighter fast movement
-
Finished with an assisted jump or sprint
By pairing strength with speed in the same sequence we activate the nervous system first and then train it to move more powerfully straight after.
All exercises are adapted for age and development level to ensure they are safe for growth and joint health.
At Kong Academy, we use this method to help young athletes become stronger, faster and more confident within their sport.
This is one of the reasons why Kong Academy is one of the few young strength programs in Huddersfield applying structured contrast training safely for developing athletes.

Specific Small Groups.
Our Specific Small Group sessions are ideal for children who have particular areas they’d like to improve — whether that’s speed, strength, coordination, confidence, or movement technique. Working in a small group allows for more individual attention than larger classes, with closer coaching, detailed feedback, and tailored progressions to suit each child’s needs. At the same time, the group environment keeps sessions motivating, enjoyable, and supportive. This focused approach helps children make strong progress while still benefiting from training alongside others.
Kong Academy Strength Lab sessions are designed to help young people get fitter and stronger and confident through safe, supervised barbell training and strength fundamentals. The program covers barbell basics- inlcluding squats, deadlifts, presses and pulls- with a focus on porper technique, while also building mobility, flexibility and posture, and injury prevention skills. Participants develop coordination, balance and solid strength foundation that supports sports performance and everyday life. The sessions also include fun fitness conditioning drills to boost confidence and athleticism. The strength lab emphasises learning how to move well, gaining confidence, and enjoying training in a supportive gym environment.
