Our Goals
Strength | Persistence | Athleticism | Resilience |Knowledge
After completing our Summer SPARK Clinics, our goals are for athletes to cultivate competitive advantages in speed, strength, injury prevention, and overall knowledge of bodily mechanics.
What sets us apart is our focus on developing well-rounded athletes who can thrive under pressure. This focus helps us teach athletes how to manage performance anxiety, overcome negative self-talk, and develop a winning mindset.
We provide a fun, dynamic and safe atmosphere where athletes can push themselves and develop their athletic identities confidently with the guidance of a team of expert, trusted coaches.
Our Team
We’re a two person operation specializing in strength and conditioning, sports performance, lifestyle coaching, and youth sports. Our team is led by Angie Sparks, an elite fitness coach and former children’s educator, and Jerry Garcia, Professional Trainer and owner of Barbell Health & Performance. Between us, we’re former athletes who have combined experience spanning two decades in areas such as exercise, coaching, education, and athletic training/programming.
Coach Angie’s expertise derives from her BS in Childhood Education from Miami University, which informs her supportive and dynamic coaching style that has made her a successful personal trainer for 5 years.
Coach Jerry’s expertise is backed by a BS in Exercise Science from Lewis University, accompanied by certifications in exercise physiology and a specialization in performance enhancement, as well as military exercise experience.
