We’re excited to welcome a new member to the Athens Athletic Club team, Josh Stewart.
Hear from Josh below:
“Over the past 19+ years, I’ve had the privilege of building a career centered around health, wellness, and serving others. My experience includes large-scale facility operations, including nearly a decade helping to oversee the UGA Ramsey Student Center & satellite facilities, as well as facility design and business development for one of the leading brands in athletics and human performance by partnering with many of the sports industry’s top organizations.
I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Sport Management and Master’s degree in Professional Counseling from the University of West Georgia. My true passion has always been developing healthy, growth-minded relationships with winning teams that create positive human experiences through servant leadership and leave a lasting impact.
On a personal note, I feel blessed to have called the incredible community of Athens home for my family for nearly 15 years. My wife, Heidi, has served the Athens area through her career in the medical field for over a decade, and together we’re raising our two lively young boys, JJ and Jack. Saying ‘Go Dawgs!’ has been ingrained in me since childhood and will always be a huge part of who I am.
What excites me most about AAC isn’t just the opportunity to help open a world-class facility—it’s the opportunity to help create a place where people of all ages feel welcomed, safe, and inspired to pursue healthier lives. I truly believe AAC will become something special for Athens and everyone involved.
I can’t wait to help bring this vision to life!”
Welcome to the team, Josh! We’re excited for what’s ahead and can’t wait for our community to meet you.
Performance has no age or level.
This offseason, Philadelphia Eagles linebacker and former Georgia Bulldog Smael Mondon has been training with Ben, our Director of Performance and Wellness, focusing on agility, movement, and performance.
No matter your age, skill level, or stage of life, our performance training is designed to help every athlete reach their full potential.
Athens Athletic Club is where athletes of all levels come to train, improve, and perform.
With a background in physical therapy and performance training, Ben is passionate about helping people of all ages move better, recover stronger, and reach their goals. From working with athletes to leading this summer’s speed camps, he’s dedicated to creating a welcoming environment where every member can succeed.
We’re excited to continue building a team and community centered around helping people feel their best, reach their goals, and grow stronger together. The best is still to come at Athens Athletic Club.
