I am so very proud to count Jared (Yared) Armstrong as one of my congregants! He cares so deeply about his Judaism, about Israel, and creating lifelong connections between the African American and Jewish communities. In his fight to obtain Israeli citizenship, he bravely confronted bureaucratic racism, and fought it with justice (tsedek) and perseverance (hatmadah), making many friends and allies along the way. Jared passionately believes in Black and Jewish children, hoping to use the shared language of sports to break down barriers and build much-needed bridges, all in the hope of building a better future.

“Jared demonstrates all the qualities you would want as a skills coach, trainer and most importantly mentor. His ability to connect with people is easy as he’s passionate and really does care. Jared will bring out the best in his athletes, leading by example. I’ve seen his work ethic first hand in the gym and in his personal endeavors. One to put the work himself in all aspects of his life, which anyone working with him can benefit and learn from. If you are looking to grow as a basketball player and as a person I would highly recommend starting with him.

Jared is an authentic, hardworking and inspiring trainer and entrepreneur. Faced with adversity he has always smiled and overcome with no complaints. For someone with so many talents he is very relatable to everyone, as he puts others before his own needs. I would recommend Jared to anyone and excited to see whats next for him.

Jared has a great work ethic and strives to be the best he can be on and off the basketball court. He is interested in optimizing his athleticism with the latest technology, recovery methods and nutritional advances. His ability to embrace all methods for personal success makes him a great athlete to work with. He is a winner.

Not only is Jared an excellent basketball coach, but he is a wonderful human being. When he works with your child, he takes a total approach which includes not only skills and drills, but important lessons about life, how to be the best person you can, teamwork, and coexistence. If you have the opportunity to have your child learn from Jared, please take it!

As his former coach, I appreciated the opportunity to watch Jared grow into a terrific player through his strong work ethic, high level IQ, excellent skill set, and strong leadership qualities. Jared is a person I trust deeply and I am excited for his continued journey through the game of basketball!

Jared was referred to me for recovery therapy while finishing his senior year in high school, preparing to enter collegiate basketball . Jared realized that recovery therapy is essential not only for the professional athlete , but the amateur and college students as well. Jared worked like I’ve never seen a college athlete work . He also came to me during the off-season to revitalize his frame and prepare for his entry into professional sports overseas. It was his attention to the completeness of practice , conditioning , and recovery therapy that has brought him to the pinnacle of his journey thus far.

Registering your youth athlete for Jared's training program will be a game-changer. I've personally witnessed the personalized attention and tailored coaching, guidance, and techniques he gives each athlete.

Not only does Jared improve their basketball skills, but he also fosters a strong work ethic, discipline, and teamwork—qualities that extend beyond the court.
