Our Story
NXTLVL Performance Academy was founded by Jo'el Bryant, known as Coach Joe, and Ashley Bryant, who share a passion for helping young athletes discover their full potential.
Coach Joe's coaching journey began in 2011 as an assistant youth basketball coach in California. As their own children became involved in sports, that passion continued to grow as he coached youth soccer and football, gaining valuable experience working with athletes of all ages and skill levels.
As parents, Ashley and Jo'el recognized the importance of creating an environment where athletic development and personal growth go hand in hand. They envisioned a place where athletes receive individualized instruction while learning the value of hard work, discipline, teamwork, confidence, and perseverance.
That vision became NXTLVL Performance Academy.
Today, our mission remains the same—to provide high-quality athletic performance training in a positive, encouraging environment where every athlete feels challenged, supported, and valued.
We believe success is about more than improving speed, strength, or agility. It's about building confidence, developing character, and equipping young athletes with the mindset and work ethic that will serve them both in competition and throughout life.
At NXTLVL Performance Academy, we're committed to helping every athlete reach their full potential—on and off the field.
