Al Kraft joined Sanford Sports Performance in 2000 after spending 11 years in sports medicine. He has a Master of Science in exercise physiology and is a certified athletic trainer, strength and conditioning coach and exercise physiologist. Throughout his career, Kraft has served as an adjunct instructor in the Exercise Science department at Concordia College in Moorhead, Minnesota.

Kraft’s coaching philosophy is to meet athletes where they are by customizing programs with their goals and medical history. He strives to be both a teacher and coach so athletes can continue to progress on their own once training has ended.

Kraft enjoys working alongside excellent coaches, trainers and physical therapists in a state-of-the-art facility. He appreciates the multidisciplinary collaboration among the staff that makes Sanford Sports Performance a training destination.
