"The School of Loaded Movement offers a science-based, customizable approach to taking a recruit from the first day at the academy to the first day at the station. Since we began the program we have seen an increase in success and preparedness to train while experiencing a dramatic decrease in cadet injuries. Officers like that staff assignments are flexible since the programs are scripted and documented. I strongly urge you to consider the School of Loaded Movement's Fire Program."
