Happy birthday to us!

In 2007, I was working as a 1:1 aide for a thirteen year old boy with autism. I noticed that the expectations for him were set far below of those of his peers, especially in his physical education class.

I had an idea about creating a business that served the disability community that provided a fun and safe place for them to learn how to exercise. Many said that it was a great idea, but impossible to create a business providing the service that I had in mind. Thank goodness that I didn't listen. 

With the support of my wife Mary and friends, on June 12, 2012 I filed for an LLC in the state of Oregon and made my idea a reality. Specialty Athletic Training has now served over 375 individuals of various ages and disabilities, and have 5 locations throughout the states of Oregon and Washington. 

Here's to seven years of making fitness fun, inclusive and providing the opportunity to live a healthy life accessible to everyone. Thank you for all of your continued support and love!
