DMD
Optimal Performance
TRAIN SMARTER.
PLAY HARDER. GET NOTICED.
TURN POTENTIAL INTO SCHOLARSHIPS & CHAMPIONSHIPS
Championship teams aren’t built on talent alone. The right training gives your athletes the edge they need to dominate on the court and get scouted by NCAA programs.
At DMD Optimal Performance, we provide elite-level performance testing and training designed for teams that want to compete—and win—at the highest level.
YOU PUT IN THE HOURS.
YOUR TEAM IS WORKING HARD.
SO WHY AREN'T YOU SEEING THE RESULTS?
Lack of endurance is costing you games in the 4th quarter.
Injuries keep key players on the sidelines.
Your athletes have talent, but they’re not getting noticed by college scouts.

SUCCESS STORIES
SUCCESS STORIES
WHAT DOES DMD
STAND FOR?
DMD is the acronym for Doris Melnee Darden, my mother’s name. My mother was the greatest supporter of my passion and vision.
From the time I began participating in sports and until her passing, she always encouraged me. As an enrichment teacher, she always
inspired me to pursue success, instructed me
on the art of the preparation, and instilled in me the importance of staying focused.
“Nothing comes easy” she would always remind me. I owe a lot to her. So it is only fitting to name my company after her. I infuse her life lessons into my work as the principal of DMD Optimal Performance.
