The Coaching Paradigm is Broken

Beyond Isolated Problems

Injuries are not isolated incidents. They are complex interconnected events that demand a holistic approach. Learn to see the patterns, not just the symptoms.

Beyond Surface Protocols

Forget generic regen protocols. We dive deep into fascial mechanics, resonance models, SFT framework, and the intricate communication networks of human movement.

Authentic Performance Insights

Gain knowledge and perspective to work with elite athletes, Special Operations, and complex injury cases that traditional education never covers.

An Exclusive Small Group Learning Opportunity

For performance coaches and practitioners who refuse to accept conventional wisdom as gospel and want to drive the industry forward.

Systems-Level Mastery

Learn to regulate chaos using State, Trait, Workload, and Mechanical readiness frameworks

Performance Therapy Integration

Bridge the gap from table to turf with manual inputs, dynamic loading, and movement reintegration

Real Case Application

Analyze real athlete videos, breakdown complex cases, and build actionable plans for your environment.

Personal Mentorship

Individual 1-on-1 call with Danny plus weekly mentorship sessions on professional development.

5-Week Curriculum

A structured progression from chaos recognition to complete control

Week 1: The Resonance of Movement

Body-wide coherence, fascia, variability, mechanical cooperation

Understand fascial mechanics and tensional integrity
Learn the Structural -> Functional -> Technical (SFT) model
Identify "where chaos lives" in your athletes and environment

Weekly Prompt: Audit your current systems and identify where chaos exists

Week 2: The Chaos of Injury

Injury mechanisms, archetypes, dysfunction patterns, SFT analysis

Deep dive into SFT framework and pattern recognition
Understand archetypes and technical signatures
Learn why tissues fail: stress/strain and load capacity mismatches

Weekly Prompt: Identify your biggest "ifs" and map 3 athletes to SFT categories

Week 3: Staying in the Green

Real-time chaos management using dynamic systems decision-making

Master State, Trait, Workload, and Mechanical readiness
Learn workload management and compression rules
Implement daily decision gates and mechanical flags

Weekly Prompt: Audit your training systems and identify 2-3 improvement priorities

Week 4: From Table to Turf

Performance Therapy integration and movement reintegration

Table -> Activation -> Integration progression
Manual inputs for tissue health and force pathways
Dynamic/ISO applications (yield -> catch -> drive)
Case study: Catarina (assessment to return to output)

Weekly Prompt: Build an applied "Table to Turf" plan for an athlete

Week 5: Individual Mentorship

Personal coaching and integration

Individual 1-on-1 call with Danny

What Are Our Alumni Saying?

"As a young coach looking to develop myself and deliver the best for my athletes, joining Controlling Chaos was one of the best decisions I could've made. In 5 weeks, I've gained an immense toolset and clear model on how to support the health of my athletes, help them return from injury, and maintain a high level of performance. Danny and Chris have also helped me better understand the kinematics of sprinting and the intertwining relationship between speed development and individual movement strategies with their implications on health and injuries.

These past 5 weeks were intense, challenging, highly stimulating, and at times, emotional. Danny sets the stage for raw discussions and transparent perspectives and he is endlessly giving with his knowledge and his help. There are many resources out there. There are very few that are truly invaluable as Controlling Chaos is."
