After spending several years in club volleyball across multiple clubs in the San Gabriel Valley,,…read moreour family can honestly say that Stormbreaker has been the best overall club experience we've had. What makes Stormbreaker different is that it was specifically created to solve frustrations that parents and players commonly experience in club volleyball. One of the biggest issues in club volleyball is roster size. Many clubs carry 12-14 players, meaning some girls spend large portions of tournaments on the bench, players worry about being substituted out after mistakes, and teammates feel like competitors fighting for the same playing time. Stormbreaker intentionally keeps rosters smaller, typically around 9-10 players. The girls are not only on the court more often, but they have a defined role and purpose. They are part of every match and rotation rather than wondering if they will see the floor. That consistency allows players to develop confidence through real game experience instead of constantly worrying about being replaced. Another major difference is training volume. Most clubs provide two practices per week. Stormbreaker provides three, plus additional opportunities for clinics, scrimmages, and position-specific development. More touches, more repetitions, and more feedback lead to more growth. Practices are also structured differently. Stormbreaker often has multiple teams training simultaneously with four or more coaches actively involved. Athletes are divided into position groups. Setters with setting coaches, hitters with hitting coaches, liberos on defense and serve receive, middles on middle-specific skills. The specialized instruction and repetition the girls receive is dramatically higher than what we experienced elsewhere. Stormbreaker also has something most clubs don't offer: a dedicated strength and athletic development area called The Vault. The girls participate in structured conditioning sessions focused on athleticism, explosiveness, core strength, injury prevention, and volleyball-specific performance. We've personally watched players become stronger, jump higher, and gain confidence over a single season. We also appreciated that development was built into the club experience rather than requiring constant outside lessons. Between three practices, specialized coaching, strength training, clinics, and additional opportunities for extra reps, our daughter received far more development within the program itself than we experienced elsewhere. Stormbreaker is also not built around a single coach. Jonathan, the club director, is deeply involved and genuinely cares about players and families. He has invested tremendous time studying collegiate, Olympic, and high-level volleyball development systems so coaches work from a shared philosophy. Unlike many clubs where your experience depends almost entirely on one coach, Stormbreaker has worked to build a consistent developmental system. The goal is that players continue progressing regardless of which coach they have because the training philosophy, skill development priorities, and expectations are shared across the club. What impressed me most, however, is the culture. The emphasis is not only on volleyball skills but on character, confidence, resilience, leadership, and personal growth. The club's mission and core values show up in how coaches interact with players, how families support one another, and how girls are encouraged to grow as athletes and young people. Our own team faced plenty of challenges. We had players learning new positions, several first-year club athletes, and periods of instability that could have derailed development. Instead, we watched the girls improve dramatically. They became more skilled, more confident, more competitive, and more resilient. Our daughter gained meaningful court time, developed confidence, and grew more in a single season than we expected. More importantly, she genuinely looked forward to practices and finished the season loving the game even more than when she started. We've spoken with many families from other Stormbreaker teams, and our experience is not unique. Parents consistently share that their daughters improved more in one season than in previous years elsewhere. No club is perfect, and Stormbreaker is still growing. But it was intentionally built to address problems many families have simply accepted as normal in club volleyball. They created an environment where athletes can develop, compete, build confidence, and genuinely enjoy the game. For our family, the difference has been significant, and we are grateful for everything our daughter gained this season both on and off the court.

Brad, the owner of Jump Lab is very knowledgeable and very professional…read more Santina is very kind and helpful too. Both of my daughters, who play club volleyball, have been coming to Jump Lab since August of this year. We first heard about this place after seeing many other volleyball players train here, so we decided to give it a try. Our goal was to help our girls improve their strength, speed, and vertical...all things that are very important for volleyball. We started with the 3-months program to see how they liked it, and we've already seen great improvements in their overall athletic performance. Their movements are stronger and more explosive, and we can tell the training is really helping them on the court. The coaches there (Coach Morgan) are professional, knowledgeable, and encouraging. They pay attention to each athlete's needs and push them to reach their full potential. Our girls like to train there because they see the results themselves, and we truly appreciate the positive environment and the results we're seeing. We already referred many (teammates and friends) to Jump Lab and I think many more will join after they see our results. We highly recommend Jump Lab to any athlete who wants to get stronger, faster, and more confident in their sport.

Please train your employees on interacting with special needs families. This location was…read moreunfortunately recommended to us by the Regional Center as a place welcoming of children on the spectrum. Our experience was quite the opposite. Upon signing in for our trial class, we told the instructor our daughter's name. Right as we were about to explain that she is on the spectrum, the instructor told my daughter "You can't talk or what?" When we told him our daughter is nonverbal, he literally laughed and said "Oh." When the website said there would be lots of fun and laughter in class, I didn't realize they meant at the expense of my daughter. Within a few minutes the instructor ran up to us in front of all the other parents and told us we should bring her another day for an adaptive class, but that she could stay for the current class. When we we told him this class was recommended and did not see any information on the website about adaptive classes, he just said oh yeah we don't put that online. Before we attended the class, we made sure to fill out the student profile to make the staff aware of my daughter's diagnosis. Upon reviewing her profile, they could have let us know about all of our options since they do not provide this information online. At one point he started calling my daughter tippy toes. Making a nickname out of something many autistic children struggle with, was upsetting. At the end he said they did not have any time to focus on my daughter because they had too many kids. I never expected the focus to be solely on my daughter (even though the staff definitely made more of an effort to help the youngest gymnasts). I just wanted a place where she could feel included and supported, not made fun of. This class would have been a challenge for anyone being introduced to gymnastics for the first time. Had the staff seemed like they cared about helping my daughter and hadn't laughed at her difficulty speaking, we would have definitely come back for an adaptive class. Please make an attempt to train your staff in interacting with students of all abilities before you create another miserable experience for a special needs family.

I was completely comfortable answering questions about my son's autism and his support needs during the intake call. I understand that these questions are necessary. However, what made the experience uncomfortable was the attitude of the staff member, Jessica. After nearly every answer I gave, she would respond with an annoyed-sounding "Hmm... okay," which came across as dismissive and judgmental. When she asked if my son attends a "typical school," her tone made me feel like I was being interrogated rather than welcomed. It got to the point where I had to ask her if there was an issue because her responses consistently felt rude. She mentioned that she has a lot of experience working with autistic children, but that wasn't reflected in the way she communicated. Families seeking programs for children with autism deserve empathy, patience, and respectful communication--especially during an intake call, which is often the first impression of the organization. Unfortunately, this interaction left me feeling discouraged rather than supported. I probably will just continue swimming classes rather than even starting here if this is how they discriminate against families with children on the spectrum.

I'm an unfit fitness junkie, go after everything from Barry's to Lagree and my activity of choice, spinning. I noticed increasing knee pain plus I can't handle the impact of running anymore. My biggest change since going to Str8 is increased functional fitness in my life. My knee pain is gone and I've noticed my "performance" improve significantly at my usual spin classes and I can push much harder and heavier. For true function in real life, I was able to climb 24 floors because of an elevator malfunction, and most importantly to me, I am able to carry my 40lb disabled child multiple floors, further distances than ever. The classes are a full 60 minutes which is a major standout from the usual 45-50 minute workouts and you work every minute, fighting for your life (or I am anyway ha). Due to the variety of workouts, I've also been able to observe my personal weaknesses, like balance and coordination so that's helpful. The coaches, Ashton and Cam are supportive, motivating, and really train you like an athlete even if you're not. The class sizes tend to be very small, I've had my form corrected multiple times, and feel comfortable asking questions about a modification or pain, etc. Another awesome bit is the other participants, I find that it's not about vanity and narcissism with the matching Alo set here, so refreshing. Everyone is super inspiring, encouraging, and hard working. The location is very convenient, right off the 210 off Altadena Dr, with easy free parking in the shared lot with Mobility Works. The space is shared with an indoor soccer coaching area and Physical Therapy practice. Want to gatekeep but that wouldn't be in the spirit of Str8. Cannot recommend enough.
