TALK TO A COACH

a Program That Builds Real Momentum

Our approach to middle school training goes beyond just working hard—we focus on teaching athletes how to train the right way. These years are a critical window for building the strength, discipline, and movement efficiency that will carry them into high school prepared, confident, and capable.

Athletes are challenged to move better, think faster, and bring more focus to each session—without compromising safety or reinforcing bad habits. Every progression is matched to their stage of development, not just their age.

The goal is to help athletes build the physical tools and mindset they need to stay healthy, be competitive, and stay on track as the demands of sport increase.

take the first step

Training at SHP Athletes has been a huge help for my basketball game. I came in wanting to get stronger, faster, and more confident, and after a year, I definitely feel the difference. My first step is quicker, and I feel way more confident in games now. Big shoutout to Coach Levi—he’s helped me stay focused and keep pushing. I even made Varsity as a Freshman! The vibe at SHP is chill but serious, and it’s a place that really helps you grow. - Destiny Scott
