"Having the opportunity to have Mike as a teammate for an entire year was one of the best things that happened to me in my career. He was like having a personal coach on the sidelines for every practice and every game. He has the ability to see little things in technique and form that helped me go from just another punter, to an alternate for the Pro Bowl in 2002, to later being a two-time All Pro. I have no doubt that any punter or kicker who has the opportunity to work with Mike will benefit tremendously!"
-Brian Moorman-- Two-Time All Pro Punter for the Buffalo Bills and teammate of Mike's at Buffalo in 2002. Brian is also a student of ProForm Kicking Academy during his off season! |
"In my 19 years of playing in the NFL, Mike Hollis is one of the few coaches I have encountered that I trust. Mike has been extremely successful at every level, so when an NFL All-Pro talks, I listen. I have kicked with Mike Hollis, competed with Mike Hollis, and coached camps with Mike Hollis. Mike has a coach's eye. As a player, Mike's technique was flawless. As a coach, Mike's attention to detail is unparalleled in the industry. If you want to be great, to train like the pros, to control the mental game, to dial in your technique, to max-out your potential, then Mike Hollis is your Coach."
-John Carney-- 2009 Pro Bowl selection and one of the greatest kickers in the history of the NFL! John was a great mentor for Mike during the 1994 San Diego Chargers pre-season training camp, preparing Mike for a successful NFL career. |
"ProForm Kicking Academy teaches 'common sense' kicking and punting techniques that are NOT common among many other kicking camps out there! We are VERY detailed and teach the most productive and efficient kicking and punting fundamentals that will, without a doubt, make ANY dedicated and disciplined kicker and/or punter successful at ANY level!" Mike Hollis, Retired 9 Year NFL All-Pro Kicker.
With the affiliation of Jacksonville Ice & Sportsplex, ProForm Kicking Academy offers one of the most detailed kicking, punting, and long/short snapping academies in the nation. With the ability to train within a private environment inside a 55,000 square foot indoor sports facility, all athletes can train year around...despite the weather conditions! This environment also allows the athlete to focus on form and technique, maximizing the potential for perfecting their swing. Unlike many other kicking camps out there, ProForm Kicking Academy focuses on the many very specific attributes that are involved within each swing of the leg. Much like the golf swing, there are a number of problematic issues that need to be addressed on a consistent basis. It takes very experienced coaches to identify each of these specific movements and correct them when needed. The PKA coaches have 30+ combined years of recognizing proper and improper movements within the kicking and punting motions...not only by visually seeing them, but by experiencing them as well. Both Coach Hollis and Coach Gaetano have kicked thousands of footballs at all levels and have learned to identify and correct any problems they have encountered. That is what separates an average kicker from a great kicker...and ProForm Kicking Academy will assist in that transformation!
