FOUNDED IN 2019
A gym built for real-life obstacles.
Coach Storm founded Soar Over Obstacles in Clarksville, Tennessee, specializing in Ninja Warrior training, Parkour, Obstacle Course Racing, and comprehensive body transformations.
The mission is to help members gain confidence and improve their mental and emotional resilience. The tactics used to overcome obstacles in the gym translate into success outside it.
Storm loves working with kids, instilling the confidence to chase their dreams. With adults and seniors, he leads by example—proving that it is never too late to push your limits and become the best version of yourself.
Never quit.
Keep moving.
Keep growing.
