Specialty Athletic Training

My son has been training with Specialty Athletic Training for 8 years and counting. I firmly believe that the experience has changed the trajectory of his life. There is so much more beyond the obvious physical gains. Confidence, coordination, social behavior and focus all come together after a workout. Ryan, Brad and all the trainers we’ve worked with over the years have enveloped my son with care and compassion, and have given him the gift of self discipline. We feel close to my son’s trainers and think they are all amazing human beings. Often my husband and I will reflect on the years my son has been a client of Specialty Athletic Training and we are so proud we made it a priority. It’s part of who he is, and will continue to be a part of who he becomes.

My son has been receiving athletic training through Specialty Athletic Training for several years. We are so grateful to have been informed of this wonderful program. Ryan Lockard and his training staff treat each client with consideration and true respect. They are able to identify the individual's unique talents and struggles then create an athletic program tailored to that individual. Our family highly recommends Specialty Athletic Training for individuals with special needs.

Specialty AthleticTraining provides an excellent service for Patrick, our son an adult male with Down Syndrome to maintain and build a healthy body, self-esteem and mentorship. . Ryan, Brad, and Emily are terrific trainers and role-models for Patrick and his peers who are enrolled in this program. During these quarantine-days, Speciality Athletic Training also provides virtual training for those who are not able to be in the gym. Putting the individual’s needs first, the staff goes above and beyond to meet the needs of each of their clients.nI highly recommend Specialty Athletics to people of all ages and abilities.

My 10 year old son, who is on the autism spectrum, began weekly personal training sessions with Specialty Athletic at the beginning of the year. Being very pleased with the work he was doing, we added a second weekly session over the summer which continues to this day.nnOur overall experience has been completely positive. He has worked with four different trainers so far, the changes due to our reworking his schedule between summer and the school year. Each one has been excellent! It is clear that the staff communicates among themselves and that his sessions are planned to allow continuous progress regardless of who is leading them.nnIn short, S.A.T. offers exactly what we were looking for & provides an excellent overall experience. We plan to continue working with them for a long time.

Specialty Athletic does such a great job at getting athletes moving and enjoying their workout, sometimes not realizing how hard their working! :) all of the trainers are SO positive and love working with the athletes. Such a wonderful program. Ryan has created something amazing!
