“Victory comes from harmony”

Spartanik RS Inc. was established in 2003 in the heart of New York City by former 800 meters runner Andrey Baranov who has graduated from the Pyotr Leshaft State Academy of Physical Training – one of the oldest Academies of Physical Training in Russia (1896) located in Saint Petersburg.

Spartanik RS Inc. as a sports management agency fully licensed by the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) was founded in order to bring the dominance of Eastern-European Athletes at the Olympic Competitions of 1980’s back to the highest level.

We work to maximize local, regional, domestic and international opportunities for each of our athletes. Spartanik formulates strategies for both the short and long term success of our athletes. We are dedicated to the role of an advocate of athletes’ rights.
