This place is awesome. I've been going here for physical therapy with Kirsten and I work and feedback from her are great. From the facilities to the aides, definitely recommend other athletes do their PT here. read more

My son participated in a 4 day camp in Seal Beach. A total of 9 kids attended, which obviously, is much smaller than expected. The camp was not well structured and several of the coaches left well before the camp ended. The last hour of each day was dedicated to activities in the workout/physical fitness/weight room. A separate fitness trainer managed this effort. On the first day he showed up for 30 mins of the hour. The 2nd day was less than 15 mins of the hour and was a no show on the 3rd and 4th day. The basketball coaches sat in the room with the kids and told them to do what they wanted. Horrible. IMO, certainly not worth the $$. read more

They have the most elite basketball games and players here! Tickets range from $20-50! Parking is $15. Smoothies are $10, literally like coming to an amusement park. I don't appreciate the prices. They must do better. It is very clean and it is a nice establishment. However they have to do better for families here. This is Made Hoops sponsor! So maybe not all the academy's fault but I like coming here to support my brother! read more

KA basketball academy so deceitful & expensive. We didn't even get for the items we paid for and the coach we were promised to have!!! So unethical!!!! read more

Same teams play over and over, parking $20 and simple just for same teams to play each other

If you read through the Sports Academy reviews it clearly suffers from disorganized management, constant schedule and pricing changes, and unprofessional staff who provide poor customer service. Safety also seems neglected, as one parent reported a child being injured on an improperly padded court while management prioritized property over players. On top of that, reviews highlight unfair treatment of employees, unpaid intern labor, and even refusal to serve older patients with Medicare. With all of that aside their tournaments for AAU are a mess. They charge for every little thing imaginable, they are under staffed, they hire the worst refs who clearly don't care about their profession because they give it the least respect imaginable. These aren't even the worst issues there, I watched a grown man, a tall young ref get into it with a parent unprofessionally then took it out on the child to the point the child was in tears. The fact that they can allow a grown man to abuse a child, that was baffling. They should be embarrassed of themselves, they should strive for basic human values. You are in a position of power and you are allowing your vendors to abuse your children who pay your bills by coming to you. We hope they find better places for tournaments because you don't deserve anyone's business. read more

Kobe left his mark on this place even though they took the name Mamba out. Just to know the Black Mamba graced this place with his presence pouring his knowledge to the next generation makes this place a basketball shrine. Beautiful courts. Total workout area. Nice little cafe. They even have a double beach volleyball court area. read more

State-of-the-art facility with everything you may have seen on Sports Science & more! There's a reason NFL & NBA stars come in & get their work done in the lab here because everything is A1.

With heavy hearts, we traveled down to LA from the Bay as I was lucky enough to win tickets to Kobe Bryant's memorial at Staples Center. While we were in the area, we made sure to visit Mamba Sports Academy just to be able to experience Kobe's amazing sports facility. With it being 1 day removed from Kobe's memorial, the mood in the building was noticeably and expectedly somber, yet everyone was very friendly and accommodating. On to the facility! This place is downright AMAZING! It looks like an Olympic training facility or something! Basketball courts, sand pit, cardio equipment, treatment room, snack bar, you name it, it's probably here! I really wanted to shoot some hoops on the courts that Kobe and GiGi played on, and took a shot in the dark and asked if it was open gym, and it was! It only cost $5! My friend and I shot some hoops and played 1 on 1 for a bit. I was in street clothes, but I didn't care. I was wearing my Carpe Diem Kobe IVs, lol! All in all, it was amazing to pay a visit, although I wish it was under different circumstances! Kobe was a childhood hero to me, and I hope his legacy lives on for eternity. RIP Kobe & GiGi! read more

Great facility! Basketball courts are in great shape and the place is really clean. The staff here are absolute Rockstars! Friendly, respectful and always attentive to our needs. The training staff here is 2nd to none as well. If you have an opportunity to join the Sports Academy or have your kids play in tournaments here you have to jump on it! Love this spot! read more

After being coming here for sometime I love their recovery services The great attention and customer service has certainly helped that I can choose the best recovery modalities for my athletic endeavors As a professional athlete for many years is wonderful to see that they offer services for everyone and allow me to continue to be at my best read more

Sports Academy - Normatec recovery session - Trainers Near Me - Thousand Oaks, California

unorganized, team played with no coach, no good sportsmanship, & no good communication.

My kids have played in 100+ basketball games at this venue since it opened (formerly Sports Academy). So, my review is coming from the perspective of a parent who has been here many, many times. My overarching belief is that Mamba Academy is a money grab. It's hard NOT to have that impression, because the very first employee you encounter, is stationed at the entrance of the parking lot, collecting $10 for parking. The next person you encounter is charging $10 for entry. These two observations are facts. Objective, not subjective. So, before you can see your kid(s) play basketball, you are already $20 + $10 for every other person in your party, poorer. The courts offer small steel bleacher style seating plus a row of chairs alongside the court, which literally leave your feet on the court. Any player leaving the court at speed is going to injure themselves and/or a spectator. Uncomfortable and dangerous for everybody. There is one court, in the front row of courts, all the way against the side of the building, that has no seating. Playing surfaces are fine. There is a snack bar in the back that is very expensive. They charge for a cup of water, even when you are paying $6 for a regular cup of coffee. No air conditioning. The positives: there are ample and clean bathrooms. There is an upstairs area with sofas, chairs and televisions, which is very comfortable (although it is frequently off-limits for private functions. There are water stations to refill water bottles. Overall, it's a clean facility. It seems this place is more interested in paid training. There is a room for cryo-therapy. I know a lot of elite athletes work out here. There is a gaming room (not open to the public). I know Mamba Academy offers physical therapy and other paid services. I'm not passing judgement on the paid services. I have no experience with them. The facility is nice. They have to be doing things right for the repeat clients, many of whom, as I noted are elite athletes. As a weekend tournament parent, I feel like Cattle Class at the airport. There are nice lounges, just not for me. read more

I was super excited to come and do some muscle recovery in their recovery room but the woman working didn't seem to understand what she could and could not do. I was super confused about what I could do at the same time and she just kept telling me no. When I asked for some alternatives or if she could give me some other ideas, she said "nothing". I wanted to get muscle stimulation on my hips and compression on my legs and she said I could only do one or the other, not both, and that there were absolutely no other options for me. When I communicated again that I was confused, she asked me "Did I say something that caused you to catch an attitude with me?" and that's when I actually started to get frustrated. I just communicated back that I wasn't trying to catch an attitude, I was just confused and didn't understand what I was able to do. She just stares at me like I'm crazy lol. I just let it go and decided to do compression on my legs and stimulation on my back like my friend. Then another girl comes in and starts setting stuff up for others and I found out that it wouldn't have even been an option for me to have it on my hips in the first place. The new girl started setting other stuff up that the first one said wasn't an option. Now I sit here and try to enjoy my experience while she gives me attitude. Blonde girl in gym shark leggings was an absolute brat of an employee! EDIT: her name is Sarah!! read more

Providing a safe environment should be a priority and it is not. My 12 year old son played a game at sports Academy in August on court five. Lack of consistent refereeing caused many fouls to not be called, increasing the aggression and physicality of the game. As a result, my son was pushed at full force against the chain-link fence that is within a foot or two of the sideline. I know it is a physical sport and injuries will happen but those injuries should be from playing the game not from the environment in which the game is played. When I spoke to the manager to inform him that there is a sharp piece on the chain-link fence that caused this and I suggest that the black wall padding be put in front of it as a safety precaution so it doesn't happen to anyone else, and I am told that padding won't protect the windows it is clear that child safety is not even a priority as their concern lies more with protecting the windows than it does with player safety. I was not saying that only padding should be used in front of the window - it is obvious that the fence can stay to protect the window but padding should be put up in front of it. I was also told it has never happened before (which is probably the case because if it is going to happen, it will be with my son lol). My response was that it has happened now and I was bringing it to their attention so that either the sharp piece sticking out of the fence can be fixed or padding can be put up to protect all players' safety. This could have been a kid's face! I returned today, optimistic and hopeful that some kind of padding was put up or that something has been done just to be told from the same manager I spoke to the last time that he did bring it up in a meeting but he's not sure what will be done if anything. There was no let me get your number and I'll follow up with you-nothing! Between tournament fees, entrance fees, and parking we pay really good money to come to the facility and bottom line is if something like this happens, there should be something done to avoid it happening again to anyone else. On a positive note, it was nice to see that today it appears the refs are getting training so hopefully that improves. read more

Excellent facilities but for basketball tournaments they seem over priced. $10 parking, $12 per adult to see our kid play 2 games and then we have to pay the same for the second day of the tournament. Plus the clubs have to pay to participate in the event. Seems like way too much money is getting raked in. I would suggest a attendance fees for parking and spectators for the weekend instead of each day. read more

Highly Recommend this place, I am beyond happy that I was able to find out about this facility. They truly do have the best staff through the entire process. Every single person working here I have encountered has been so great. Not like the typical depressing facilities that you typically end up at when you are trying to get help for injuries. In the past I have always dreaded and just had a negative outlook with little hope for receiving genuine help in these type of situations. I have been dealing with awful sciatica pain due to lower back injury from a motocross crash for a few months now. I had originally gone to my local Hospitals Emergency Room for this when my pain had gotten to the point where I knew something was very wrong. Spent an entire day there and left with no answers, hope or any guidance on what I should do next. Understandably, there was an entire waiting room full of others they needed to get in and out. Though I left from there worried that there was not much hope for getting better any time soon. I was recommend to this place from a friend for my particular issues I was having, happened to be right down the street from my work so I just walked in to ask about getting some help and they were very helpful right off the bat. Ended up getting an appointment set up very soon after and was back in for my first appointment a day or two later. After my first appointment here I had wished I knew about this place a lot sooner. Absolutely genuine and caring staff that I am very thankful for. Thank you Dr. Henry and his assistant Effe! As well as the entire staff for all of the excellent service. Hope I will not need to be back here once I'm back on track, but I am lucky to have this place if I need. read more

Coaches (2nd grade) review: I absolutely love this facility.. BUT youth basketball sucks here! Don't join youth basketball here unless you want to feel like you are taking your kid to practices and games like it's a 9-5 job. Don't get me wrong, coaches make youth sports, but I was very unhappy with this facility and how unorganized this program is. One guy runes the entire program all ages so getting anything done seems impossible for this guy.. Schedule for the season is on a week to week basis... so nobody knows who we're playing and time until week before. The league doesn't provide team pictures, so there is NO pictures with the team unless you take a pic of your own by the academy background. There is no trophies or medals given out for any placement, only oversized kids shits and undersized adult shirts are given to teams that win their division Playoffs are 2 weeks before season ends, winner brackets only. 2 weeks of basically no urgency if you lose week 6 in playoffs (they guarantee eight games) Recommend NPBA OR CYBA read more

The following review is written directly for the sports academy in Thousand Oaks that hosts youth basketball tournaments every weekend. Do not play in the basketball tournaments at this place. After you pay the $350 team fees the organizers don't enforce the age requirement rules at all. We saw a coach grab a clearly older kid from his older team and give him a jersey to play on his younger team. The cheating was brought to the attention to the employees and they did nothing about it. All they said was "that's something we are working on". However it's been happening here at the place repeatedly over the years and and it will never change. The organizers don't care much about the violations because they already have collected all the money from teams anyways. Definitely will not be bringing my money to this place anymore. One more thing, there seems to regularly be fights between parents or coaches there also. By the time the sheriff's department arrives the conflict/incident is over. Every tournament on the weekends should have 1-2 security guards from Saturday morning through Sunday evening for the entire weekend event. Makes total sense. read more

Brrrr!! Just tried CRYOTHERAPY for the first time -- what an exhilarating experience! Been hearing about famous athletes using EXTREME COLD THERAPY and was curious to try it myself. Purchased a discount voucher and scheduled an appointment. Plenty of availability since the visit only takes about 15 minutes. Walk-ins are also welcomed. In a nutshell, your body is exposed to a couple minutes of subzero temperature. Benefits are purported to include: - increased energy - reduced inflammation - decreased fatigue - lessened effects from various types of arthritis - improved joint function PROCESS = After signing a waiver, you are given complimentary robes and sandals. Note you must be completely dry before stepping into the chamber, which looks like a futuristic time machine. Your head stays exposed above the chamber -- you're only in there 2 to 3 minutes and an employee is present the whole time. THE TEMPERATURE WENT DOWN TO ALMOST MINUS 260°F. If you're ever uncomfortable and have to stop immediately, the chamber door is easily pushed open. RESULT = The best way to describe the sensation afterwards is a temporary WHOLE BODY EUPHORIA. Location is near the corner of Rancho Conejo Blvd & Ventu Park Rd, across the street from Amgen. read more

Dr. Henry at the Integrated Sports Medicine Center is amazing. I was so nervous about my recent back injury and I was not interested in seeing a doctor who pushed surgery.

Everything is state of the art and the staff is all super friendly and helpful. read more

Another upsetting night dealing with parents leaving their kids at a gym where they have signs posted 16 and older. They had young girls goofing off in the cardio room and messing around in the adult locker rooms. It's getting to the point that it's frustrating to relax in the "spa treatment" that we are paying for, or even being able to use the equipment because 8 to 14 year old kids are playing on the equipment, goofing off, and being in locker rooms they shouldn't be in. They need to get a night shift manager to kick out these kids before I lose it and end up getting in trouble for scolding someone else's kid because they aren't responsible enough. The sign walking in to the women's locker room says children between 4 and under 16 are not permitted. There is a family bathroom/locker room for them and also another women's and men's locker room for those kids. Please staff PLEASE!!!! DO SOMETHING ABOUT THESE YOUNG KIDS TAKING PICTURES IN THE LOCKER ROOM AND MESSING AROUND!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Sports Academy ought to be ashamed. Charging for parking AND entry to the game? And for the steep price, be prepared: only a handful of parents and other attendees will get a chair that offers a good view of the game. This wouldn't be worth it if they were charging half the price. We've asked our coach not to agree to games here anymore. Ridiculous. If I could give zero stars I would. read more
