What athletes near Buffalo Park are saying

Hear from active people who've worked with Cadence Performance to get back to their training.

He is extremely knowledgeable, and is able to explain everything to me without me being confused. He is easy to talk to. The homework he gave me never seemed overwhelming...it was achievable and easy to understand. I will go to him when I need physical therapy again. Hopefully I don't injure myself too soon!
Stacey Calvert
As an avid cyclist, I’ve seen my share of overuse injuries, imbalances, and post-crash recoveries. Since day one (I'm a long time client), Eric has taken the time to understand the demands of cycling and how it affects the body. He didn’t just throw generic exercises at me. He built a personalized plan that actually addressed the root(s) of the issue(s) and helped me get back on the bike stronger and more stable than before. Eric combines a vast knowledge of biomechanics with the ability to explain things clearly. He understands athletes and will push you just enough to make progress without overdoing it. If you’re an athlete in Northern Arizona dealing with injury, burnout, or just looking to improve performance through better movement - this is the place to go.

Eric was very helpful in my ankle sprain recovery. Initially, I was hesitant to trust that the ankle could bear weight in dynamic loading conditions, but in just a few sessions Eric helped me regain the confidence I needed to trust it on rough trails
