ACCELERATION NORTH STORY
Acceleration owner Curt Carbaugh started an internship with Acceleration Minnesota after he graduated with a Kinesiology degree from UW Eau Claire. Acceleration Minnesota was owned by 2 brothers back in 1990-2003.
Acceleration Minnesota had 5 locations in the metro area and sold them to each director in 2004 and turned them into franchises. Curt changed his company to Acceleration North as it is located in the North suburbs. Miles VanTassell was an employee at Acceleration each summer when he was home and not playing minor league professional hockey.

From the moment I stepped into their state-of-the-art facility, I was greeted by a team of passionate staff dedicated to unlocking every individual's athletic potential. Their expertise shone through in every aspect of their program, from personalized training regimens to cutting-edge equipment tailored to maximize speed and agility gains.
One of the most impressive aspects of Acceleration is their comprehensive approach to speed training. Rather than adopting a one-size-fits-all approach, they meticulously assess each athlete's strengths, weaknesses, and goals, crafting a bespoke training plan designed to optimize performance. Whether you're a professional athlete, weekend warrior or youth athlete, Acceleration caters to athletes of all levels, ensuring that everyone receives the attention and guidance needed to succeed.

We had a great experience with our mite and squirt aged kids going through the summer training program. The kids loved the coaches and looked forward to going each week. You could see the results of the hard work and I highly recommend this program for any hockey parent!

My boys spent time with the coaches at Acceleration North this summer thanks to their relationship with Blaine Football. They LOVED every minute of it. Thank you for making them work hard, and for teaching them new skills that have resulted in significant improvements on the field.

Staff are professional and accommodating. Scheduling is easy. My oldest did a "pick 6" last summer and showed noticeable improvement during his hockey tryouts.

In a world where most training facilities tell kids what to do, Curt is the best I've seen at teaching kids how exercises are done properly and why they need to be done that way. I trained with Curt over 20 years ago and now he trains my children and it's great to see he is as passionate, motivated and dedicated to improving his craft today as he was back then.

I did Acceleration as a player 20+ years ago and they were some of the best memories. I was thrilled when we signed our son up for his first Acceleration Skating sessions, Acceleration North exceeded my already high expectations. The team is amazing to work with and in just 3 sessions we've already seen tremendous improvement in his stride and confidence on the ice.

I have 3 kids at varying degree of competitiveness. They have been to acceleration for running, skating and fastpitch. I always feel like each kid is being helped and pushed regardless of ability. The information and patience of the acceleration team along with the facility really does provide an optimal learning environment.

My boys have been training here for 7 and 3 years before their hockey seasons. They have always gotten them to that next level to reach their goals for tryouts! Definitely the best training out there and they are wonderful to work with!

My son just did his first session on the speed treadmill. The trainer was fantastic and walked him through all the exercises and really challenged him, safely, to boost his speed. We'll be back!!!

My 16 year old son trained at Acceleration North for basketball and absolutely loved it. The staff showed genuine interest in his progress and were great motivators! Programs are tailor made to each individual. Saw significant increase in speed and strength as well as overall athletic confidence (priceless). I would highly recommend to any athlete looking for that extra advantage.

The staff at Acceleration North is fantastic. My kids love training at the facility in Arden Hills. The hockey treadmill is their favorite. We have already seen them improve on the ice after just a few sessions.

Great programs available. Good for the off season, or even during the season. They will work with you for your particular needs. My son has done two back to back 8 week sessions and his vertical has improved nicely. His initial MAX speed is now less than his warm up speed. The kid can run now. They not only worked on speed, but worked on form too. Highly recommend.

The Guys at Acceleration North are top notch and know what they are doing when it comes to training athletes, and taking their game to the next level. my son spent lots of hours on the skating treadmill with Miles and Hammer. With the time they spent with him 1 on 1 and working on his stride and shoot has brought his game to the next level. if your looking to improve your kids performance in hockey or any sport i recommend the team at Acceleration North, thanks guys for your dedication on making athletes better.
