YOUR JOURNEY BACK STARTS TODAY.

MEET THE FOUNDER

Alex Oliver, or “Ollie”, is a former Navy SEAL and served for 21 years before retiring with a new passion for helping his fellow teammates put themselves back together physically, mentally and emotionally. Following years of relentless operational commitments and training engagements that took him all over the world, Ollie himself had experienced first-hand the toll that his service took on his physical, mental, and emotional well being and the effect in had on his family. Prior to his transition from military service, Ollie was integral in the formation and development of the human performance program at an East Coast based SEAL Team.

As he prepared to transition Ollie saw that the post-military landscape inefficiently and often ineffectively addressed the wide ranging needs of the Special Operator’s long term health. As a result he established Virginia High Performance (VHP) in Virginia Beach, VA and began his journey to build what is widely acknowledged as an industry leading human performance facility. VHP holistically assesses, trains, and improves current and former special operators’ health and wellness with solutions that will serve them for the rest of their lives. The unique mix of modalities that he consolidated from the far corners of the human performance space now live under one roof at VHP as the “Continue Mission Program”.
