What is the PlayStrong Institute?

The Playstrong Institute is devoted to training athletes, coaches and sports medicine professionals in proven methods that have positively impacted the performance of professional, masters, collegiate, and high school athletes all over North America.

The Playstrong Institute offers a broad variety of services and products that center on enhancing sports performance and injury prevention. These include Playstrong Training Courses; Playstrong Athletic Training; and the Playstrong Store where participants and athletes may purchase our specialized conditioning equipment.

 PlayStrong Training Courses:

The Playstrong Institute began as a training program for high school, collegiate and elite athletes. As coaches and trainers began seeing the positive results in their athletes who were practicing Playstrong methods, demand was created for programs to train sports coaches and other healthcare professionals. The PlayStrong Institute offers a variety of Playstrong courses throughout the year in addition to providing on-site consultation for interested collegiate and professional teams and organizations. During our courses, the participants develop "hands-on" working knowledge of how to instruct and evaluate athletes in the PlayStrong approach to movement skills and conditioning.

Playstrong Training Courses are appropriate for:

• Coaches
• Physical Therapists
• Personal Trainers
• Medical Exercise Specialists
• Sports & Fitness Teaching Professionals
• Athletes

PlayStrong Athletic Training is equally appropriate for the high school, collegiate, professional and Olympic athlete. Though excellent for both the male and female athlete, Playstrong methods can be specifically geared to meet the unique training and conditioning needs of the female athlete.

Many Division I, II, & III collegiate programs have integrated PlayStrong conditioning and movement skills into their athletic training and conditioning programs. The PlayStrong Institute also provided the official movement skills and conditioning programs for the Colorado Xplosion, the 1997 Women's Professional American Basketball League Western Conference Champions.

Currently, Sarah Scott is the Strength and Conditioning Coach for St. Edwards University in Austin, TX.
