Training that makes the grade.

Our youth athletic education programs focus on strength, performance, and injury prevention, so that our students can develop into stronger, faster, smarter athletes and achieve their long term goals.

Readying student athletes for excellence.

Our unique training methodology helps students reach their full potential, preparing them for competition at the club, high school, and college levels and instilling them with a lifelong love of fitness.

Graduates of our program have been recruited by many of the country’s leading colleges and universities and have gone on to compete in lacrosse, soccer, tennis, squash, and golf.

Youth athletic performance programs and clinics

We partner with Maryland independent schools to enhance your child’s learning experience through athletic enrichment. Held on campus, after school and on weekends, our clinics are designed to help your child develop into a strong and healthy student athlete. If you would like to host a clinic at your school, please contact us.

Our methodology

Student athletes are specializing in sports at younger ages than ever, leading to a rise in overuse injuries. In order to perform consistently at a high level, all athletes, regardless of age, need a balanced approach to fitness.

Our unique training methodology incorporates more than 20 years of training experience, deep research, and consultation with physical therapists and musculoskeletal experts, to develop well-rounded athletes, conditioned not only to excel in their sport, but to more readily avoid injury due to overtraining and repetitive use.

Hear from our graduates

“Working with Dave was exactly what I needed in my athletic career. He taught me how to optimize my training to perform at my athletic peak while remaining healthy and injury free throughout both training and competition.

His mentorship and guidance had a significant impact on my success as both a high school athlete and a Division I college athlete. Dave’s philosophy on training has continued to influence how I approach fitness and performance even today.

I highly recommend him to anyone interested in improving their athletic performance, overall mobility, or general health and lifestyle.”

“When I first started working with Dave, I had little to no experience training in a gym, let alone with a personal trainer. From day one, he was patient, encouraging, and genuinely invested in helping me build a strong foundation. He took the time to ensure I understood not only how to perform each exercise correctly, but also why each movement mattered and how it contributed to my overall progress. Because of his guidance, I now feel much more confident in my understanding of fitness and training principles.

Dave consistently went above and beyond, creating personalized workouts for me to complete independently and tailoring his approach to my individual goals and abilities. His expertise, professionalism, and ability to connect with people from all backgrounds make him an exceptional trainer. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to have worked with Dave and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, dedicated, and supportive trainer.”

“Training with Dave Chun had a lasting impact on my athletic career and on the way I understand movement, performance, and injury prevention.

When I first started working with him in middle and high school, I was dealing with knee issues from growing quickly and not yet moving properly. Dave helped me understand that staying healthy and performing well both start with the fundamentals: learning how to move, stabilize, and train with intention.

Dave taught me how to run, refined my form, and helped me develop the core stability, movement awareness, and body control that made me stronger, more efficient, and more resilient. That foundation completely changed the way I trained and competed. It carried me through my years as a varsity squash player at Dartmouth, through two marathons, and continues to shape the way I approach fitness today.

Dave did more than help me become a better athlete in the moment. He gave me the tools and confidence to be an athlete for life.”
