Matt and Roxanna Williams
Co-Owners
Welcome! We are Matt and Roxanna Williams, the couple behind Athletic Republic Waterloo Region. As longtime residents, we are thrilled to be bringing the first Athletic Republic to Canada, and especially to this region.
Athletic Republic has provided the opportunity to merge two of our favourite things, science and sport. Athletic Republic brings together scientifically validated protocols, proprietary equipment, and the ability to collect and compare data across many points. Together, these attributes create a dynamic environment to support optimal athletic development, regardless of sport. The Test – Teach – Train – Track methodologies provide ultimate value to each athlete that enters the doors of Athletic Republic.
We are excited to provide a location that brings together this athletic philosophy, along with mental performance, dietetics and athletic therapy, creating a centre that cares for the whole athlete. We look forward to making a difference for your athletes!
