How do I cancel my membership?

ALL monthly membership will be subject to a thirty-day cancellation notice.

If the notice is presented within 30 days of the next bill date, you will be charged a final month. Cancellations will not be prorated.

Are the training programs sport-specific?

All of our programs are "Athlete-specific." once our initial movement evaluation is completed, we can cultivate a customized program to each specific athlete. We consider those particular variables and movement metrics as well as chronological age, biological age, training age, the "Season" of each sport (off season, in-season etc), the demands of the position the athlete plays, and of course the demands of the sport.

What qualifications do your trainers have?

Our coaches have a combined experience of over 30+ years training athletes. With Master's and Bachelor degrees in Sports Performance, Exercise Science, Kineisology, and over 15+ certifications, our well trained staff was hand picked to offer our community the best the industry has to offer.
