Our Story
Basement Beginnings
Twenty-five years ago, a flicker of an idea took shape—bold yet fragile, unconventional yet full of promise. We called it a coaching center, even daring to add "international." The reality? Classes in Ruthie Godfrey’s basement. No grand stage, no polished veneer—just passion, grit, and an unshakable belief in what coaching could become.
To outsiders, it may have seemed like a quirky basement project. But for those who stepped inside, it was something far more powerful—the beginning of a movement that would change coaching forever.
