“We love Southern Maine Athlete Academy! Such a unique but needed complement to youth sports - helping kids build strength, speed and athleticism in a fun and engaging way. I love the benefits in injury prevention and improved sports performance - we've made athletic development sessions a priority. Coaches Jeremy and Carson are wonderful to work with and incredibly engaging.” -Cara S., Ecstatic Mom
“I’ve been so impressed with the enthusiasm, high-quality coaching, and attention to detail that Jeremy and his team bring to working with my 8 year old and 12 year old each week. From the moment my kids step into the gym, they are met with positive encouragement to push themselves through fun, dynamic challenges. I routinely witness Jeremy’s close attention to technique to ensure that the kids are performing the challenges safely and in a way that will maximize long term gains over short term efforts just “completing” the challenge. It’s great to have his expertise, encouragement, responsiveness, and individualized attention at such a convenient location. I’d highly recommend seeking out their services.” -Nate H., Appreciative Dad
