ALEX BLUNT
As a teen, Alex took part in a mentor program called the Young Simbas at the local church. This program, along with the moral values instilled in him by his grandmothers, taught him how to think independently, critically and objectively. Alex learned conflict resolution skills which aided in his ability to be thoughtful and open minded. He attended Senn High School, where he was the vice president of the student council and played defensive end on the football team. He went on to play basketball for the Danville Eagles for a year then transferred to Truman College due to family issues. In an effort to pay it forward, Alex took on a role as a Volunteer Youth Mentor in a local community outreach program. The passion to help others improve their way of thinking and better their situation, led him to branch out into other neighborhood outreach programs and youth sports leagues.
I became certified as a personal trainer and obtained my Team Sports Coaching Certificate while simultaneously became the Director of Operations for the Team Flight Basketball AAU Travel Team and Boys Basketball High School Coach for Mather High School. In these roles he had the opportunity to coach multiple teams from 6th to 12th grade as well as organize and operate multiple basketball camps and clinics. Alex’s work in these roles and coaching gained recognition from Roycemore Private School's Athletics Department which led to a head coach for the Boys Basketball Program. While he continued to enjoy the position with Roycemore, he felt the need to further his work in the community as a leader and mentor to not only the youth, but adults as well.
Alex Blunt founded Motion Elite. This allowed him and a team of coaches the opportunity to groom individuals in a similar fashion of the program. Motion Elite prides itself with the ability to educate each member of their family on work ethic, critical thinking, respect,and self worth. We also show our students how to live a healthier lifestyle through proper food intake, individualized work out plans and a strong state of mind.
