We are building strong athletes from the foundation up and providing safe, fun, and encouraging classes for every child.

Discover Tampa Bay’s Premier Movement Studio and Batting Cage Facility 

The Rock Athletics opened its doors in 2023 and has been building Strong, Fearless and Unstoppable children ever since.

Our programs welcome movers as young as 10 months old because we believe that a child's relationship with their body, their confidence and their love of movement starts early and it matters from day one.

Through intentional physical skill development, a genuine passion for movement and values like discipline, perseverance and teamwork, we give every child who walks through our doors the foundation they need to go after everything life has in store for them.

Whether your child dreams of becoming an inventor, an artist, an athlete or something the world hasn't seen yet, a strong body, a resilient mind and an unshakeable belief in themselves will carry them there.


OUR JOURNEY

This Is More Than A Gym. This Is A Movement.

The Rock Athletics is a youth movement studio located in South Tampa, intentionally designed with one person in mind: your child.

Our studio was built with the safety of even our youngest movers in mind. The space is fully equipped with everything your child needs to move, challenge themselves and grow inside a nurturing, positive atmosphere that fosters a true growth mindset community.

A gym gives your child somewhere to move.

The Rock gives your child somewhere to become.

Strong. Fearless. Unstoppable. Together

OUR STUDIO

Jason enjoys guiding and mentoring young players in baseball. He understands firsthand the ups and downs of training and playing competitively, and through The Rock, he wants to give rising young players a place that encourages their physical growth and leadership on and off the field.

Jason and his wife have three children. As a family, they enjoy spending time on both mountain slopes and beach shores. When Jason is not working or helping charitable causes, he enjoys a good golf game or a bit of fishing. 

Born and raised in Tampa, baseball has been part of Jason’s life since age three. Formerly an MLB player who played for five teams, including our local Tampa Bay Rays, Jason has spent his career following major league retirement as a sports agent, baseball analyst, and entrepreneur.
