Athletic Republic Rockwall is owned and operated by Jhony and Dahlia Lopez. In 1981 Jhony came to the United States from Colombia, South America to pursue a better future, and had the desire to make the most of this opportunity.  His wife, Dahlia, grew up as a migrant farm worker in the Rio Grande Valley of south Texas.  She has a very strong work ethic that was instilled in her from a young age. They met at church, fell in love, married, and were blessed with their beautiful daughter, Jessica, who also followed her mother's passion for teaching.  They will be celebrating their 35th wedding anniversary this year in addition to celebrating the grand opening of their new training facility. "My wife and I have a passion for teach kids and giving them the opportunities they deserve with sports training" says Lopez, "Nothing brings me greater happiness than seeing an athlete perform at their highest level possible. Now we can bring a proven method for athletes to turn potential into performance."

"Jhony & Dahlia are the quintessential example of what we look for in our partners at Athletic Republic," said CEO Charlie Graves. "We're extremely grateful to expand in the Dallas market with such an impressive franchise partner and strategic development partnership with AmeriSports."
