TEAM

ABOUT US

Who we are?

We are a team of former performance athletes, from several sports and disciplines, who lived and competed both in Romania and abroad. We understand the challenges, limitations and inequities present in sport.

 

We know where you're coming from - and the best path to long-term success.

I was there. Combining school and sports can seem like a challenge, but the rewards are great. Commitment to one of the best universities in the world allows athletes to perform and compete at the highest levels without sacrificing early education - building advantages that grow over a lifetime.

 

We've done it ourselves - and we'd love to share what we've learned along the way.

Dedicated athletes.
