February camp was all about more….more of the titillating “Metallic Soundscapes” music, more visual practice, learning more about ourselves individually, and more about ourselves as members of a cohesive Corps!

Spartans has invited a very special addition to our fine team of professionals this year. At camp, we were joined by Dr. Jacob Levy, a leading member of the Drum Corps Medical Project. “Dr. Jake” captured everyone’s attention throughout the weekend as he spoke about performance enhancement techniques, personality traits and strengths, and valuable tools for performance readiness. He will be working closely with us throughout the season with ongoing communication and future visits planned. “Dr. Jake” adds another element of expertise to our repertoire as we continue to strive toward the virtue of excellence in all that we do!

Bio - Jacob Levy (a.k.a. “Dr. Jake”) is a Performance Coach and Psychologist. Dr. Levy earned his doctorate in Counseling Psychology at Indiana University in 2002, and currently is an Assistant Professor of Psychology at the University of Tennessee. As an educator and researcher, Dr. Levy has focused much of his professional career in the areas of talent development and personality assessment. His work has produced over a dozen scholarly publications. In addition to his academic pursuits, Dr. Levy operates a private practice with a special emphasis on performance enhancement and mental skills training. In 2005, Dr. Levy expanded his services to the drum corps community. An alumnus of The Cavaliers Drum & Bugle Corps, Dr. Levy has firsthand knowledge of the unique demands drum corps participants face, both on and off the field. Since that time, he has consulted with several drum corps, and is happy to be joining the Spartans team in 2008.
