Blind Ambition Fitness, LLC arose from our family’s commitment to staying active. Our busy lives have always included, and often revolved around, sports and fitness. From hiking and biking together, to countless hours at soccer fields around the world, sports/fitness brings us together time and again. When we are together, one of our favorite family activities is a group fitness session, often including friends. After COVID-19 forced us to stay home, we started running our family/friend workouts via video calls, and BA-Fit was born.
Eric was diagnosed with a retinal disorder in 2012. DNA testing revealed a rare form of macular degeneration (Central Areolar Choroidal Dystrophy) had affected Eric’s father, brother, and son (Alec). We decided to use BA-Fit as a platform to combat this and other retinal diseases that do not yet have cures. 10% of BA-Fit profits are donated to the Foundation Fighting Blindness.
