Mission Performance SB

Youth athlete performance training, education and mentorship in Santa Barbara, California.

Our Mission

To prolong and enhance the careers of youth athletes in Santa Barbara through proper training, education and preparation.

Every athlete is on their own journey — good coaching and mentorship are part of what gets them there.

The Program

What training looks like

Coach cueing an athlete through a jump

Small groups

Sessions run with 2–7 athletes. Athletes get the energy of a group with the attention of private training.

Your own program

Every athlete has a program built around their sport, season, history and goals, delivered straight to their phone.

Athlete sprinting through timing gates

Measured progress

Force plates, timing gates and regular testing show exactly where an athlete is improving and where they need work. No guessing.

The whole athlete

Sleep, nutrition, recovery and workload all matter as much as the weight room. From the daily fueling station to monthly educational speakers coming to speak to athletes — we cover all of it.

Who It's For

Athletes with a goal

We work with middle school, high school and college athletes in every sport, from baseball (our biggest group) to volleyball, soccer, basketball, football, lacrosse, tennis and more.

The athletes who get the most out of Mission are the ones chasing something specific: making varsity, playing in college, staying healthy through a long season.
