“What is Youth Athletic Development?”
As we have started this program we’ve gotten this question a lot. On the surface, you’ll see kids getting faster, stronger, and becoming insane athletes…. But YAD is so much more.
This summer these five kids (Joey Salazar, Mac Madrid, Zach Bruggeman Mark Gallegos and Mia Duran) became great friends and constantly look forward to seeing each other. They grew stronger together and encouraged each other all throughout our summer camp. And this group of kids are just ONE example of this.
Our Youth Athletic Development Program is about developing these athletes entirely which means allowing these kids to communicate and bond with others their age. From this they will create new friendships that last. And right now, is a perfect time to see what we’re talking about.
Our Fall Performance Camp is just days away. Happening October 6th, 7th, and 8th, we’re sure your kiddo will make a friend that they’ll remember forever.
So what do you say, ready to make some new friends?
Dm us YAD for more information.

“Natasha saved my life. I met Natasha at Gradys Performance Center. I walked in at 220lbs on blood pressure meds. I explained my personal goals to her. 7 weeks in, I'm down 6lbs, off the blood pressure meds and working towards my goals. She’s always positive and supportive and most of all, teaches me the proper way to exercise. I'm so proud to work with her and the staff here treat me like family…I love this place. Thank you Natasha.”

“While pitching at the tournament this last weekend, I took a hard line drive to the knee. Knocked me to the ground. Because Coach Mateo got me in shape, I was able to walk it off and continue pitching. Four months ago, I'm sure it would have been a visit to the ER instead of an ice pack. My improved muscles kept things in place.”
- Don, 8 Gradys Client
At 8 Gradys, our coaches work around the clock to improve muscle strength, power, and endurance, to prepare our clients’ bodies for strenuous activity and greatly reducing their risk of injury 💪🏽

8 Gradys Performance Center was founded by Scott Grady in 2018. Scott’s vision for the center stemmed from his own experience as a young, local athlete in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Having played as a quarterback for West Mesa High School, he credits his coaches and training for much of his success. Continuing his football career at Western New University and at The University of New Mexico, Scott knows firsthand what it takes to become a successful collegiate athlete. Through the 8 Gradys Performance Center, he hopes to share his passion and commitment for proper training and coaching with the local community. In addition to athletic training, he has placed a focus on academics, nutrition, and sports psychology to further enhance the overall benefits for every athlete that trains at the facility. Scott credits his overall success in both business and life to the experiences sports gave him as an adolescent, and has designed The 8 Gradys Performance Center to foster similar experiences for other young athletes.
