Michael Payne

Michael attended Menlo Atherton High School in Atherton, CA, where he was a tri-athlete star in Basketball, Track, and Football. His primary sport growing up was basketball, which he attained a Scholarship to the University of Arizona as one of the best-unknown point guards. After taking a backseat for a couple of years, Michael then decided to move to Los Angeles and start over at Los Angeles Valley College. In the years of 2001-2003, he decided to play Football after a disappointment to himself of being a major Division I basketball player. Michael became an astonishing athlete on the football field making his mark as one of the best wide receivers in the valley and later becoming one of the best two-way players as both a defensive back and wide receiver. He went on to attend the University of Western Illinois on a full scholarship as a defensive back for the following years 2004-2006.

Michael lettered in football as a defensive back and made his presence felt as a member of the track team, anchoring the 4x200 and running the 60 meter dash. Michael had the opportunity of training at the NFL Scout Combine with a 4.14 in the 20 yard shuttle, a 4.48 in the 40 yd dash, and a 38.5" in the vertical jump. These numbers earned him an opportunity to attend some camps where he did well and is very appreciative for the experience. Michael now resides in Los Angeles and is quickly becoming one of the top trainers in "Athletic Special Skills" joining the Natural Sports Team. Michael's believes anything can be accomplished as long as you love it. When you love something you work hard at it and hard for it.
