Prior Proper Planning prevents poor performance. This mindset underscores the importance of communication, organization, and professionalism.

P3PE’s home is called the Barn, which offers state-of-the-art fitness equipment and technology to facilitate classes, clinics, and seminars. P3PE’s Barn is also known as the Schoolhouse because it is dedicated to physical education.

• P3PE is driven by the belief that everyone can benefit from athletic pursuits. Our impact extends beyond building strength and improving cardiovascular capacity: P3PE shapes your identity as an athlete, helping you embrace fitness as a lifestyle and enlist prior proper planning in all aspects of life.

• P3PE cultivates a supportive atmosphere for athletes, teachers, and coaches to learn about training approaches – and about themselves.

• P3PE supports individuals of every age and at every stage of life and experience. We also provide a consistent training facility for programs that do not have a dedicated home, including high schools, Dragon Boat Clubs, Community Rowing Programs, and guest lecturers/specialized presenters.

The "Three P's" of P3PE:

• Prior - Start early, and get out front. Early preparation is key.

• Proper - Attention to detail and committed focus are what propel success.

The “Three P’s” philosophy at P3PE — Prior Proper Planning — serves as a foundation for preventing “Poor Performance,” embodying the idea that thoughtful preparation is essential for success. By instilling this principle, P3PE promotes effective habits and teaches athletes and coaches the value of time management and professional etiquette. This approach helps athletes develop discipline and responsibility, skills that are vital both in and out of the sporting world.
