What is Sport Performance?

Sports performance refers to an athlete's ability to perform specific physical tasks and activities related to their sport. It encompasses a combination of factors, including physical conditioning, technical skills, mental focus, and tactical awareness, that together determine how well an athlete can execute in training, practice, and competition.

Key elements of sports performance include strength, speed, agility, endurance, flexibility, balance, coordination, and reaction time. Additionally, psychological factors such as motivation, focus, and resilience also play a significant role in overall performance. At AZPI, we aim to provide highly effective sports performance training through the optimization of these components throughout training, recovery, and strategy.

We offer:

  • Private Sports Performance for Youth & Elite Athletes
  • 1-on-1 Personal Training
  • Small Group Classes
  • Injury Recovery
  • Team Training
  • HYROX Training

Excellent service - much better than traditional PT offices. Huge facility and the actual PT stays with you for an entire hour each appointment. I've gone 10 times now, and it's been great each time. They really take time to listen to your concerns and issues and tailor a plan to suit your individual needs/goals. Highly recommend!

Having a background in PT and being a Phoenix Fire Department Captain with a very physically demanding job. I was searching for a PT clinic that could get me performing my job duties again after having knee replacement surgery. I can say Brady is top notch! He listens to his patients and adjusts the therapy intesity accordingly. On top of that, he's just a nice genuine person. After just 3 visits, I'm exceeding my goals and look forward to my PT sessions.ThanksSteve Podzielny

As someone recovering from back surgery, my experience at Arizona Performance Institute (AZPI) has been exceptional. The team at AZPI designed a highly personalized treatment plan, precisely tailored to my post-surgery needs and goals. The one-on-one attention from the dedicated professionals was outstanding, providing invaluable guidance and support throughout my recovery journey. The state-of-the-art facility offered a perfect setting for rehabilitation, equipped with the latest technology and amenities to enhance the healing process. AZPI has played a pivotal role in my recovery, and I highly recommend their services for anyone seeking individualized care and attention after surgery.

I highly recommend them! They answered all of my questions, I did not feel like I was being rushed out the door. I was also very pleased with the knowledge and experience they have dealing with pelvic floor issues. Thanks so much!

I had a fantastic experience with this physical therapy office! The entire staff was incredibly kind, professional, and genuinely caring. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and supported. Everyone I worked with was not only knowledgeable but also patient and attentive to my specific needs. They were flexible and accommodating with my schedule, which made it so much easier to stay consistent with my treatment. I truly felt like I was in great hands every step of the way. Highly recommend!

Azpi! is truly amazing! They offer a wide range of options to address your concerns, making them a go-to solution for anyone dealing with mobility issues, particularly after my knee trauma. Their expertise and tailored approaches have significantly improved my mobility, allowing me to get back to the activities I love. I highly recommend Azpi! for all your sports injury or mobility needs!

Sam, Julie and Will are amazing!!!! I own CrossFit Incite right around the corner from AZPI and we have a ton of our athletes go to them to get worked on. Myself included. AZPI understands how to work on athletes and how to keep you moving. Can't recommend this place enough!! If you have never been there, do yourself a favor and try it out.

Everyone on staff is beyond helpful. The PTs are extremely knowledgeable and instill a sense of confidence about your healing journey. They are willing to work as hard as you are at getting the results you need and up to date with the current research on interventions. There isn’t a bad PT on staff and they are great partners for whatever results you need.

Hands down best PT place I’ve ever been, they helped me get back to playing sports after my surgery in far less time than I thought it would be. I felt like they truly cared and were invested in each and every patients recovery. I would recommend this place/the therapists to anyone!!

AZPI has been great. I was referred to AZPI by my Orthopedic Dr for post rotator cuff surgery PT. I had my initial appointment with Dr. Bri my second visit with Dr. Brady. They were both caring, friendly and knowledgeable! The facility is very clean and well organized. I feel like they have my best interest in mind. Everyone I've interacted with has been polite and professional.

5 stars to Arizona performance Institute. I cannot say enough for one there very professional Christine At the front desk, always meets you with smile. I unfortunately, through the years I have broke my shoulder and then had injured my back so I’m not a stranger to Physical Therapy places In the valley.and in no way do any of them even compare to this place. I cannot say enough about Julie my physical therapist. She is so knowledgeable and compassionate and she just has the wonderful gift of motivating you when you’re not at your best. Whatever you have injured with me a broken knee Facilities are outstanding and phenomenal they hold fitness classes also have personal training. When I’m finished with my physical therapy, I would love to train with one of the trainers here. Again, five stars you have to come see their facility.

Excellent one on one care. Great atmosphere and experienced physical therapist. I went to a different pt for 6 weeks no results. 2 week with Arizona performance and i am so much better. Highly recommend. Everyone there is amazing especially Brie.

I was so happy to get one-on-one attention. API was out of network with my particular insurance, and I HAPPILY paid inexpensive cash fees to get expert care from them anyway! I had a severe injury, and I didn't like how my last PT used several intern staff to treat me instead of the actual PT himself. At API I received fantastic attention.
