I have been very fortunate to have worked with Coach Kramer since I was 10. Each year he has helped me to improve my skills and mechanics, as well as further my understanding of the game. He first taught me that you need to be a leader to play Quarterback. You have to be the one that your team looks to for reassurance. Through the years, I have improved my mechanics tremendously because of Coach Kramer. He taught me how to use my hips and lower body to get more power into my throws. From the beginning of my throw to the end, he showed me that balance is a key component in great mechanics and accuracy. Besides mechanics, he also taught me how to read defenses and coverages. One of the most important things Coach Kramer taught me was to take what the defense gives you. Taking what the defense gave me led me to success; it allowed me to make smart decisions and to not force throws. Going over 7-on-7 and game film with Coach Kramer was invaluable. Breaking down defenses helped me understand the weaknesses of each coverage. Coach Kramer is a very knowledgeable teacher. He encourages hustle, hard work and commitment. He has been a great mentor and role model and I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to work with him. I plan to continue to learn from him and train with him as I pursue my dream of playing at the college level.

I just recently attended the Stanford Nike Training Camp and had the time of my life! Where 300 of the best high school athletes competed in several Sparq drills, including one on one passing competition.

Everything you and Curtis Conway told me and taught me came true! You both taught me that if I put in the hard work and used the techniques taught at your camp, I would give myself the opportunity to compete at any level I wanted. I used every technique you guys taught me and it helped me push myself to the front of the pack. It allowed me to get noticed by many college coaches at the Nike Training Camp.

I was having so much fun, leading defenders, turning hips and running routes that allowed me so much separation! You and Curtis gave me the tools and knowledge, I thank you both so much!

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and Curtis Conway for encouraging, teaching, and motivating Connor at each and every training session. Connor and I have been to many different camps and they have offered some good training, but I have to say that there is something special about your training camps! I have seen first hand, you and Curtis take an athlete from their first day of training having many challenges to over come! Within a very short period of time, these same athletes looking like they had been training for years!

Parents are always questioning their decisions on which is the right training camp, who is the right individual trainer for my son? How much money should I be spending for this training? After years of searching, I finally found the answer, with the Erik Kramer Camp! I saw the difference right before my eyes, giving my son the ability to create more separation, getting off the line quicker, reading the defense, running cleaner and smarter routes!

What impressed me the most was the emphasis on education and just being an overall good person!

Thank you for the life long memories you have given my son, Connor!

As a player for the Chicago Bears, Erik Kramer was one of the most cerebral football players I have ever seen over the course of my 30 year coaching career.  Football is a sport that requires people to find an edge to be successful, especially on the professional level.  Erik truly understood this and made himself a top NFL Quarterback with his ability to master the techniques and fundamentals of the position.   Erik also separated himself from the competition with his mental approach to the game.  Erik always had great foresight both on and off the field and his preparation and mental approach mimicked that of a coach.  As a passer Erik was an extremely accurate and efficient Quarterback because he had and still has a rare understanding of human physiology as it relates to the QB position.

Since the time I coached Erik I have shown countless young Quarterbacks his game film to let them see an example of “how to” play the position the correct way with efficiency and fluid body movement.  Both of my sons became students of Erik while playing Quarterback in high school and I still use Erik’s game film to teach my youngest son, Cameron, who is currently playing QB on the collegiate level.   

As a person Erik is a man of great integrity, character and passion.  His passion is evident in all he does and he is clearly one of the most passionate people I have ever been around when it comes to the game of football!  He is an excellent communicator and teacher and he truly cares about the success of his players and the people he works with.  I more than confident that through working with Erik young people will not only become better players, but they will also gain an understanding of what it takes mentally to be a great player on any level of competition.

Erik’s 8 week camp and individual sessions improved my skills drastically.  I want to thank both Erik and Curtis for all of the work they have done with me.  They both go the extra mile to do anything to make the quarterbacks and receivers better.  Along with his work with me on the field, Erik also stressed the work off the field, especially watching film.  Throughout the whole 8 weeks Erik held film sessions of high school and NFL films.  I think this helped me just as much as the Sunday sessions.  It was great to see what each defensive coverage looked like from a bird’s eye view.  The film sessions definitely helped me with the 7 on 7 drills.  On every play I knew exactly where to go.  Erik also taught me things about my release and throwing motion that I would have never even thought about.  Everything he said made so much sense.  Once I used the  pointers that Erik gave me I added at least 5 more yards to my deep ball and saw more zip on every throw.  During my school’s spring practices,  I have realized that I have never thrown better before in my life.  Thanks again Erik and Curtis for everything you have done.

Erik has helped my son Zach put everything together to be the best quarterback he can be.  His attention to detail and the way he stresses the basic fundamentals have made a huge difference in the way Zach approaches football.  Both Erik and Curtis are very organized, structured, motivated and genuinely care about each kid in their Camp.  The Camp and the individual instruction from both Erik and Curtis have been fantastic.  These are the guys you want training your son.
