Internships
IMG Academies has a rich tradition in the world of performance training and education. We equate this to the simple fact that we practice what we preach. We instruct world-class athletes not only to endure an event, but to dominate it. We take this same attitude and apply it to assessing and developing our own methodology and staff. Through the latest research, education and constant applied practice, we impact performance every single day and continually redefine the definition of “BEST PRACTICES”.
