"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."- Mark Twain

The quote above describes well the philosophy that created the foundation for ATS in 1999. Although the mission over the years has evolved and changed, the passion behind the mission has remained unwavering. Our goal at ATS is to teach and train, and explore and deliver adventure where it is lacking. We have served thousands of clients over the years and the unifying factor in all was a curiousity, a passion, and a desire to not put off another day that which they crave right now. We invite you to join us and "explore, dream, [and] discover". Thanks for visiting!
