Fitness Center

At Diamond Ranch Academy, we believe that teens benefit most from an environment that supports emotional, mental, social, spiritual, and physical health. Every component is connected to the other components, and each part affects the other parts. As teens improve in one area, the other areas are benefited. Balance in all areas is encouraged, and the youth of Diamond Ranch Academy are supported in their efforts to be “well-rounded”.

Physical fitness and good health are crucial components to all around well-being. Physical health has been an integral piece of the philosophy of Diamond Ranch Academy from the beginning. Teens at Diamond Ranch Academy begin their time with a healthy diet of whole grains, fruits, and vegetables. They develop habits and patterns of health and exercise through sports and work projects. The physical health of teens at Diamond Ranch Academy is extremely important for helping youth progress in their program.

For physical fitness, Diamond Ranch Academy currently has a very large grass area for football, soccer, softball, boches, croquet, and the like. Students also have access to outdoor paved basketball courts and currently under construction are sand volleyball pits, and plans for tennis courts.

We are also excited to announce the latest addition to our fitness program. As the result of very generous donations by friends and supporters of Diamond Ranch Academy, the Diamond Ranch Academy Fitness Center has been constructed. The Fitness Center includes brand new weightlifting and weight training equipment for every type of exercise.

At Diamond Ranch Academy, we understand that physical exercise and health is not just about strengthening the physical body. Physical exercise is also about setting goals and accomplishing them. It’s about putting sweat and tears into something, and seeing the final results. It’s about the youth who looks in the mirror and is proud of what they have accomplished with their physical health. It’s about an honest, hard day’s work, and the reward of a restful night of sleep. It’s about healthy alternatives to less healthy options. It’s about self-esteem. It’s about living a well-balanced, healthy lifestyle.

We are extremely appreciative of those individuals who understand the importance of physical health for teens, and who have been willing to show their support through financial contributions. Their donations are helping dreams become reality. On behalf of Diamond Ranch Academy, the many families who send their teens to us, and the many struggling teens who will find strength, purpose, and meaning in their lives again as a result of your contribution, we say a very sincere, “Thank You” to those who have donated to the Diamond Ranch Academy Fitness Center.
