Gritworks Athletics was founded late in 2016 with humble beginnings in a small training facility in Bellingham, Washington by Stephen Anderson, sports performance expert, with the goal of providing athletes of all levels with high-quality sports performance training. Anderson's vision was to create a training facility that combined cutting-edge training methods with a supportive, caring and inspiring environment, where athletes could push themselves to reach their full potential. Soon after founding the company, Anderson partnered with two other sports performance experts based in Seattle, Andrew Braun and Michael Tetteh, who brought their respective expertise and experience to the Gritworks Athletics team. Together, they began building the company with a focus on developing comprehensive training programs that addressed the specific needs and goals of student athletes.

Gritworks quickly gained a reputation as the leading sports performance training facility, with athletes of all levels flocking to their facility to take advantage of their innovative training programs and top-notch coaching staff. As the company grew, the team was stretched and challenged by the exit of Andrew who had an opportunity to move back home to be closer to family.

Michael and Steve took the challenge and remained committed to the vision of creating a training center to develop, support, inspire, care, and empower student athletes to reach their full potential in life and sport.

Today, Gritworks Athletics has become one of the most respected names in the sports performance training industry, with a dedicated team of coaches and staff who are committed to helping athletes achieve their full potential. The company continues to innovate and evolve, with new training programs, technologies, and methodologies being developed all the time.
