Our experience with Perfect Performance has been outstanding. We initially came to the program looking for an environment that would help MaKayla become stronger, faster, and more athletic, but what we’ve seen develop has gone well beyond the physical results.

The coaches have created an environment where MaKayla feels comfortable being herself while also being challenged to work hard and take ownership of her development. We’ve watched her confidence, independence, discipline, and belief in herself continue to grow alongside her athletic performance.

One moment recently really captured that growth for me. After MaKayla had already completed speed and agility training, strength and conditioning, and a hitting lesson, she still had 150 softball pitching air-throughs to finish on her own. I walked over to help her count and encourage her through them, and she looked at me and said, “Dad, you can go wait in the car. I got this.”

As a parent, that was incredibly rewarding to hear. That’s ultimately what we want—not just a better athlete, but a young woman who is confident, internally motivated, disciplined, and willing to take ownership of the work required to reach her goals.
​
Perfect Performance has become a place where MaKayla is finding that version of herself. She genuinely enjoys being there, has developed great relationships with the coaches, and continues to be challenged in ways that are helping prepare her for the next level both physically and mentally.

We’re extremely grateful for the investment the Perfect Performance team continues to make in MaKayla and look forward to watching her continue to grow.

As I live out my dream of playing in the NFL, I often reflect on the journey that got me here—and Perfect Performance has been a key part of that foundation. I didn’t find Perfect Performance; it found me. And I’ve been grateful ever since.

Perfect Performance is about more than just training. It’s about developing a dominant yet humble mindset, elevating the mind, body, and spirit, and tackling every challenge—one step at a time. Even when you reach the top, there’s always another mountain to climb. Through preparation and perseverance, elite performance becomes the standard.


When I started with Perfect Performance, I faced adversity that helped shape who I am today. I was a raw athlete—limited technique, not much strength or speed—but I was hungry. Leonard Stephens began working with my high school football team's strength program at Bishop O’Connell High School, and from that moment on, I was part of the Perfect Performance family. It’s not just about the facility—it’s about the people, and wherever their Coaches go, the mission follows.

Coach Leonard is truly the 1% of the 1%. He leads by example, inspiring through action. One of the most critical parts of my development was learning the technical side of athleticism—how to bend, explode, separate, and move with precision. Coach Leonard's focus on recruiting muscle fibers helped me build stability, control, and consistency in my movements. It never got easier—I just got better.

More than anything, what sets Perfect Performance apart is the culture. It’s not just about making you a better athlete—it’s about helping you become the best version of yourself. The staff’s genuine care, commitment, and belief in my potential are what kept me coming back. Perfect Performance isn’t just a program—it’s a mindset, a brotherhood, and a path to excellence."

My time at Perfect Performance was truly unforgettable. After double knee surgery, I couldn't have asked for a better recovery. The support and positive atmosphere were incredible. Coach Tre’s hitting sessions were transformative. He’s not just an exceptional coach but also a genuinely great person. Every session with him was a joy, and his insights on my swing really boosted my confidence.

The training overall was phenomenal. It didn’t just make me a better athlete; it also helped me understand my body better and gain some much-needed strength. Working with Coach Luke was invaluable. His knowledge and techniques are lessons I’ll carry with me into college and beyond.

A heartfelt thank you to Coach Leonard. Getting that text inviting me to train here was a turning point in my athletic journey. I’m eternally grateful to him and the entire Perfect Performance team for their unwavering support and guidance. This experience has been life-changing, and I’ll always cherish the memories and lessons learned here.

My son was coached at Perfect Performance during his last two years of high school. This training yielded more than just a full football scholarship at Towson University. It forged a lifelong friendship with Coach Leonard Stephens. Coach Leonard is fully vested beyond a routine coach-student athlete relationship. This man cares about the well being of your child in every facet of their lives. He sincerely cares about the person. My nephew now trains with PP as will our two younger sons when they become of age. I love Coach Leonard like a member of my family!

Perfect Performance was an essential element of our son's development and recruiting for football.  At the end of his junior year he had not received any interest from any colleges.  He played tight end and in January of 2019 he was 6'4", 190 lbs. That January, we spoke to Leonard Stephens and he asked us where we thought we needed help. We told him our son needed to gain lean mass, work on his speed and fundamentals, and he needed injury prevention therapy for a hip/groin/hamstring issue he had for years. He asked us how much we'd like our son to weigh and we said we wanted to see him at 220 before the next football season. We were stunned when he said "that won't be a problem."  He also suggested that our son try out for the PP 7v7 football team to sharpen his skills and football fundamentals and increase his speed, and he put us in contact with the Premier Performance physical therapist to help with his nagging injury. 

 At the beginning of February, our son went in for a metabolic evaluation and was given a custom nutrition plan that he stuck to religiously. That, combined with an intensive muscle mass weightlifting program, had unbelievable results.  By May of 2019 he weighed 230 lbs with a body fat percentage of about 10% while maintaining his speed and agility. Premiere Performance and Rehab at PP helped our son overcome his long-term injury that years of previous therapy could not resolve. Within a month, he was 100% and, thanks to Premiere Performance, he is still 100% today. The 7v7 football program really helped our son hone his skills and speed and the football tournaments gave him exposure he wouldn't have otherwise had and, more importantly, confidence, because he was successfully competing against highly recruited and highly rated athletes. Finally, Leonard facilitated our son's involvement in a Rivals football camp where he was assessed for the first time, putting him on the radar of coaches and recruiters across the nation. At the camp he was assessed as the best tight end in the DMV and Rivals wrote an article called "Prospects now on the Radar" that highlighted his performance at the camp. All the while Leonard Stephens and his team of coaches were putting our son's name out on their network.

By the beginning of May of 2019, everything had changed for our son. That month he received 28 Division 1 scholarship offers before committing to play TE at the University of Michigan. None of this would have happened without Perfect Performance and we will be forever grateful to Leonard and the PP staff for everything they did for our son.

I’ve been training with the coaches at Perfect Performance for the majority of my lacrosse career and I know that without the conditioning, strength training, and injury prevention drills that we do at PP, I would not be where I am today in my career. The workouts are at high intensity and specific to the position that you play. Being surrounded by other athletes training to play at the next level makes the atmosphere even better. I walk out of every workout feeling like I have improved myself.

My sons started working out at Perfect Performance when they were in 8th and 6th grade. Now in 11th and 9th, both are starters and excelling at a WCAC school. When COVID shut everything down, we turned to Coach Leonard and Coach Alameen for their clinics, 7v7 and individual instruction. Their coaching and focus on technique enabled my freshman to compete and earn a starting Varsity spot and put my Junior in a spot to start both ways - despite not having played since 8th grade. I can't recommend their programs enough.

Coach Leonard and the Perfect Performance staff helped develop me into the best football player I could be and prepared me for the next level. Not only did they prepare me physically with strength/ speed trainings, and sport/position based trainings. Perfect Performance teaches knowledge of the game so their athletes can be physically and mentally sound when they are on the field.

So far, training at Perfect Performance has been a great experience. I could tell I’ve gotten stronger, faster, and I’m also seeing a great improvement in my game. They teach us how to lift weights, how to run properly, and how to have good hand-eye coordination. The coaches there push us to work as hard as we can in order to obtain success. They also understand us so they’re not working us to the point where we can no longer do anything. This allows me to be comfortable around them and at the same time helps me improve my skills in order to be the best athlete I can be. The overall environment is a great place and I’m glad to be a part of the Perfect Performance family.​

Perfect performance has pushed me to be the best version of myself on the field. In the many years I have trained there, I have tremendously improved in my speed, agility and strength. What I like most about Perfect Performance is that the trainers are able to focus on your specific needs to ensure you are getting the most out of your workout. Being surrounded by supporting teammates and other athletes creates a hard- working atmosphere. In addition, the Senior Team is specifically designed to prepare me to play at the collegiate level. Perfect Performance is undoubtedly one of the best programs to improve play in any sport.

Perfect Performance has played a vital role in helping me to develop my game to play at the collegiate level.  Being surrounded by other athletes who are striving to play at that higher level definitely pushed me to become the best version of myself. The trainers at PP design workouts specifically to my body and sport that made me more confident on the field because I put in the work off the field.

Perfect Performance is hands down one of the best training facilities I’ve ever been to. The moment you walk in, you can feel the energy. It’s a place where athletes at all levels are pushing themselves to get better. The coaches are incredible, they don’t just throw generic workouts at you, they really take the time to understand your goals and help you improve in a way that makes sense for you. I’ve seen huge improvements, not just physically but in my confidence and mindset too. It’s not just a gym, it’s a community that pushes you, supports you, and helps you reach your full potential.

Our son Gabriel is absolutely obsessed with football. To support him, we have been searching for a training facility in the off-season. No other youth sports training program comes remotely close to Perfect Performance. 

The coaches are well trained, have phenomenal personalities and obviously care about the kids they are coaching. The open schedule has completely filled the void from Gabe’s football season. 

Workouts are challenging and never repetitive. I have witnessed growth in not only his physical strength, but also in his mental character. I can not recommend this program enough for young kids that want to push themselves toward greatness. ​

Perfect Performance has done a lot for me as an athlete as well as changed who I am as a person. I’ve received a needed kick in the butt to get going and with the hard but supportive coaching I’ve turned into an athlete that can stand with anyone. Getting bigger and stronger has been a huge benefit of working out at Perfect Performance. However, I’ve also learned a lot about work ethic and drive as well as self motivation. I’ve come a very long way from my 120 pound self of just a couple months ago and I am very thankful for all of the Perfect Performance Coaches!

Coach Leonard and the rest of the coaches at Perfect Performance have helped me to become faster, stronger and more prepared to play D1 lacrosse.  I am so grateful to them for going the extra mile to make me a better athlete.  Coach Leonard is an incredible innovator and motivator and my time training at Perfect Performance over the last several years has been incredibly worthwhile and enjoyable!
Perfect Performance has been an integral part of my lacrosse career, especially since I was cleared from my ACL injury.

Perfect performance has transformed me as an athlete. Speed training has allowed me to be powerfully explosive on the soccer field. Plyometric training has helped me in the air for crosses and headers. Agility training has improved my quickness and reaction time which is easily transferred to the game of soccer. The strength program helped me recover from an ACL injury, and has given me a good baseline to go to an NCAA Division 1 college.

Perfect Performance has been essential in my athletic career since 7th grade and continues to be essential as I head off to college. PP has not only supported me as an athlete but also shaped me as an individual, and I couldn’t overstate the importance it has had on my athletic career, from helping me to make the Development Academy, to preparing me for the college process, to helping me return from an ACL injury, perfect performance is a top class institution.​

At perfect performance I have received speed and strength training. My strength numbers have increased dramatically along with my speed and overall athleticism on the field.”

In my time training on the baseball specific program it has been challenging but also extremely rewarding. Additionally I have seen a huge improvement of how my lifting translates directly to baseball and an overall improvement in my shoulder health. Each workout is designed to train a certain movement pattern that will be used on the baseball field. It has prepared me to compete at a high level each time I step on the field, and keep me healthy.
