specialist statement

With more than 45 years of soccer experience as a player, coach and parent, I am passionate about helping athletes reach their full potential. Often in our training, we forget how important it is to prepare our minds for success (as well as our bodies.) A healthy mindset allows athletes to come closer to accessing the fullness of their abilities. Happy, Healthy (in mind and spirit) High Performing
