SUCCESS STORIES

“I highly recommend Gritworks for athletic training! My two children have been attending classes (Soccer Grit and Junior Grit) for over four years and without a doubt, it is their favorite part of their week. Michael and Steve have built such a positive, supportive community for all their athletes. Michael has helped my son not only grow athletically, but also emotionally. Michael goes above and beyond supporting his athletics; he has attended many of my son's soccer games. My daughter has enjoyed many years of Mini, and now Junior Grit. Both my children admire and respect their coaches, and we are grateful for the positive impact Gritworks has had on our lives.”
