Admissions Requirements
Enrollment in the School of Strength is more than a gym membership—it is a commitment to a curriculum of physical agency. To maintain our clinical standards and the integrity of our data, all prospective students must meet the following requirements for admission.
1. The Preliminary Consultation
Every student begins with a 1-on-1 interview with the Principal Practitioner.
The Goal: To ensure your personal goals align with the Praxis Protocol and to determine your placement.
Systems Check: We review your physical history, current movement baseline and any specific recommendations from your healthcare team.
2. The Baseline Audit
Admission is contingent upon the completion of a full diagnostic audit. We cannot build a blueprint without accurate measurements.
Hardware: You will undergo a segmental body composition analysis and a force symmetry assessment,
The Record: These results form the movement baseline of your student file in our HIPAA-compliant portal.
3. Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN)
For students enrolling to utilize HSA/FSA funds for their tuition, a Letter of Medical Necessity is a required.
What is an LMN? An LMN is a formal document provided by your physician, physical therapist, or chiropractor. It states that our specific strength and stability curriculum is a medical necessity for treating or preventing a specific condition (e.g., post-operative recovery, obesity, hypertension, or chronic back pain).
The Benefit: With an LMN, your tuition may be considered a tax-deductible medical expense or eligible for reimbursement through your HSA/FSA provider.
Our Support: Praxis Performance provides a "Referral Summary" that you can take to your doctor to help them draft your LMN, ensuring our clinical methodology is clearly communicated to your medical team.
4. Tution
All students pay the same rate as outlined on the Tution page.
5. Acceptance of the BCPv1 Protocol
As part of our commitment to "Zero-Downtime," all students must acknowledge our Business Continuity Plan. In the event of studio maintenance or hardware recalibration, you agree to continue your curriculum via our BCP Mobile Tactical Suite. At Praxis Performance, the audit never stops.
