What Makes SAPT Different

Why Athletes & Adults Choose SAPT

Founded by a Division I Strength Coach

SAPT was established by Sarah Walls, a former NCAA Division I Strength & Conditioning Coach who now serves as Head Strength & Conditioning Coach for the Washington Mystics.

Certified Performance Specialists

Our staff holds top-tier certifications including NSCA-RSCC, NSCA-CSCS, and other performance-based credentials that support elite-level coaching standards.

Built for Longevity

We use structured, age-appropriate programming that builds strength, speed, resilience, and confidence over time — not quick-fix training that leads to burnout.

“SAPT has been an excellent place for my 14-year-old son to build a strong foundation in fitness and strength training. Having the right guidance and instruction when starting out is so important, especially at a young age.”
