About Us:
In 2006 our founder Sean Inman was approached by a hockey training company to perform video analyses of the players in their programs. Based on over 8 years of digital video experience, being an athlete and having education in physics and engineering Sean saw a potential opportunity to start a state of the art video analysis company to provide the athletic community with professional digital video services. After months of initial product development AVA was founded in 2007 by Sean Inman and Drew Johnson. Their goal was to create an online community which provides the ability to study athletic performances and improve an athletes game from home. They believe that by seeing past performances players and coaches alike can increase their sports intelligence regarding mechanics, techniques and tactics.
Company Philosophy:
Being athletes themselves the owners of AVA know how much the video solutions developed by the company can improve athletes dramatically. Understanding the sport an athlete plays is just as important as having physical skill. The best players in their respective sports continue their training after practice at home watching video of themselves to better understand what they do well and what they need to improve on. At AVA we have the ability to provide all the video services that an athlete or athletic organization will need to reach their highest level as an individual or as a team. We focus on providing the video solutions to meet your needs, so you can focus on studying and improving skills. Our goal is to provide these services to anyone in any sport at a reasonable cost.
