Mike Collette • August 2, 2023

A man and a woman are standing next to each other in a gym.

The criteria and standards that we look for when our team puts in their nominations for  Prototype of the month are Coachability, Caring, and Community and in our opinion, Juan and Melina encompass all three of those qualities handily. Congratulations, Juan and Melina!

From the very first day, we were warmly welcomed by a team with a great sense of humor and a willingness to always give their best. The coaches are highly attentive to their athletes, and PROTOTYPE is an excellent facility for training.

The trainings are designed to enhance daily skills and knowledge. This program is excellent, and the activities are enjoyable to share with family.
