Janay DeLoach Soukup
Instructor
Attitude is everything. For Janay DeLoach Soukup, nothing could be more true. On the track, few have ever been better than Janay. She won a silver medal in the long jump at an indoor world championship and a bronze in the 2012 London Olympics. Only six American women have ever jumped farther than her lifetime best of 23 feet and ¾ of an inch.
But this did not come easy. Hard work and overcoming injury is something Janay knows very well. After a compression fracture on her left ankle forced her to switch her takeoff leg to the right, she qualified for a second Olympics in 2016 in Rio de Janeiro, a feat she now says was her greatest athletic achievement. While learning to do everything with the opposite foot was not easy, her determination and foundation of knowledge took her the distance.

Course Details
Technique
The Long Jump is all about speed maintenance.
Without speed, your jump will land short. Every truly long jump begins with a fast, effective approach towards the board. But you know it’s not that easy. While there is no substitute for speed, uncontrolled speed is not enough. Going the distance is about getting the technique right and transferring speed into horizontal and vertical velocity. That’s why we start from the beginning and cover every key element of the jump – from setting-up your approach to landing. Whether you’re new to long jump or you’ve had years of experience coaching or competing in the event – you’ll feel absolutely confident with your foundation.
Drills
Convert information into execution with cutting edge drills.
The long jump requires speed, strength and explosiveness. Combine these talents with grace and agility and you’ll be getting every inch from your jump. The point is to apply force at the right time with the right technique. Every drill included is designed to get you there. You’ll learn foundational drills to train and reinforce technique as well as drills to produce power and speed. You’ll also gain an understanding of when and why to use them.
