This past Saturday we hosted our biggest testing and promotion day yet. We are in the process of putting together a collage of pictures into a video and I will post it as soon as it’s ready!
There were so many high lights.
Here are just a few…
18 young athletes ages 6-13 participated.
It was attended by moms, dads, grandparents, brothers and sisters, friends, and even other Athletic Revolution Champions who did not test but just showed up to cheer. We had a packed house!
Bryan Musial and Joe Webber wowed the crowd with an outstanding demonstration of athleticism that earned both of them their Exploration (Level 2, Phase 3) Black Bands.
2010 New England Revolution Defensive Player of the Year, 2010 MLS All-Star Kevin Alston showed his support by attending our event. I had the honor of awarding Kevin an Honorary Level 3 Black Band. In addition, Kevin assisted me in the awards ceremony when our Champions received their wrist bands and certificates.
Our largest young group to date tested for their Level 1, Phase 1 White Band…the future of Athletic Revolution!
There were laughs, happy tears and jaws dropped in amazement.
Here is the list of Champions that successfully reached a higher level of achievement:
Discovery (6-9 years old)

Nate Milewski
Anthony Sulfaro
Andrew Gleason
Alexis Rynning
Jack Rynning
Joshua Barone

Hi Dave,
Just want to say thank you I wasn’t able to be at the testing
but Kevin was and he said Derek did amazing and all the kids looked so strong he was very impressed. Derek was so proud to show me his black band A great big Thank You to you and Anderea for all that you do.
Dave,
Wow! is right! All of the kids did a fantastic job! It is awesome to see their great improvements of athleticism. You and Andrea have a very positve, motivational way of getting the best out of the kids and helping them have 100% confidence in themselves! Bryan absolutely thinks the world of AR!!
Dave,
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!! You were right when you said AR was not just about athleticism. It is so great to have someone who is not really into sports feel as if he can fit in and feel as if he is part of a team and belongs. What a great confidence booster! It is so nice to see the milestones in skill, strength and confidence while reinforcing such great positive behavior. The family like atmosphere is a plus too. It is always great when your child feels welcome and comfortable. Keep up the good work and Merry Christmas to you, Andrea, Trevor and Andrew!!!
