Having had success with athletes of all ages, most recently at a similar style boarding school in Florida, Kibwé’s coaching philosophy is built on communication and cites his experiences as a husband and father with learning how to become more effective as a coach.
Effective Feb 1, 2021, two-time U.S. Olympian and Gwinnett Sports Hall of Fame member Kibwé Johnson will become the throws coach at the Track and Field Academy at SPIRE Institute
I wanted the opportunity to do more than just coach. I want to help student-athletes achieve their full potential in every aspect of their lives. While that includes coaching them to perform well in track and field events, it's more than just that. I want to help develop all their talents, and I want to be a part of creating and shaping programs that accomplish these objectives. SPIRE embraces this same philosophy, and I couldn't be more excited to get started.
