When it comes to high jump training, not all camps are created equal. The Kangaroo Track Club High Jump, Long Jump, and Triple Jump Camps have earned a reputation across the United States — and even internationally — for producing some of the most technically skilled and confident jumpers in the sport. But what truly makes Kangaroo Track Club different? It comes down to expert coaching, individualized attention, cutting-edge technique training, and a supportive community that empowers athletes to reach their full potential since 2004.
1. World-Class Coaching from a 2x Olympian
At the core of every great camp is great coaching, and that’s where Kangaroo Track Club stands out. Camps are led by head coach Hugo Munoz, a 2X Olympian with 22 years of coaching experience, along with former national team members (with international competition experience/holding national records). Coach Munoz has not only been at the highest level himself as an athlete, but most importantly has coached and developed jumpers (high, long and triple) from all paths of life and at every level.
Coach Munoz brings a proven and unique teaching approach that has produced champions from youth to Olympians, with the unique ability to reach athletes at different stages of their development. He understands not only the technical side of the event — approach, takeoff, flight, and bar clearance — but also the mental preparation and life changes that are required to perform under pressure. Coach Munoz brings years of experience, ensuring that athletes receive sound instruction that’s proven, practical, and rooted in real competition success.

3. Personalized Coaching for Every Jumper
Unlike one-size-fits-all track camps, Kangaroo Track Club High Jump Camps focus on personalized coaching. Every athlete is evaluated individually, and training sessions are adapted to fit their skill level, goals, and body mechanics. Camps are limited to six athletes to ensure individualized and focused attention. Beginners learn the fundamentals of proper form and jumping technique, while advanced athletes refine smaller technical details that can make the difference between clearing or missing a bar. This personalized approach ensures that every jumper sees measurable progress — whether they’re trying to clear their first 5 feet (for girls) / 6 feet (for guys) or breaking into elite national marks.
4. Advanced Technique Development
What makes Kangaroo Track Club’s high jump camps truly different is their focus on technique mastery. Athletes receive hands-on coaching in every phase of the jump: approach rhythm, penultimate step mechanics, takeoff angle, body positioning, and bar clearance efficiency. Coaches use video analysis and biomechanical feedback to help athletes see what’s working and what needs improvement. This level of detail-oriented instruction is what helps campers achieve consistent, lasting improvement long after camp ends.
5. A Positive and Motivating Training Environment
KTC’s philosophy is to coach people first who happen to high jump, and equip athletes to be successful on and off the track. One of the reasons athletes return year after year is the camp’s supportive and motivating atmosphere. Whether you’re a first-time jumper or a seasoned competitor, the energy at Kangaroo Track Club is electric. While competition mindset is emphasized and campers train hard, they also form lasting friendships with other athletes who share their passion for high jump. The community spirit, sportsmanship, and encouragement from both coaches and peers make every session enjoyable and inspiring — helping athletes push past limits they didn’t think were possible.
6. A Focus on Strength, Flexibility, and Injury Prevention (online training)
High jump isn’t just about how high you can jump — it’s about how strong, fast, and balanced your body is. That’s why the Kangaroo Track Club High Jump Online Training Program integrates conditioning and injury prevention into every session. Athletes learn targeted exercises to improve explosive power, hip mobility, and core stability — key components for jumping higher and staying healthy throughout the season. Proper warm-up and recovery techniques are emphasized to protect joints and muscles, reducing the risk of common high jump injuries.
7. Year-Round Opportunities for Development
Another reason Kangaroo Track Club stands out is its year-round development model. Beyond the main summer high jump camps, the club offers seasonal clinics, one-on-one coaching sessions, and online training options. This ensures that athletes can continue refining their technique throughout the year — maintaining consistency and progress between track seasons.
