Youth Sport Programs

Out of Your Mind Youth Sports Programs:
These programs are suitable for children of school age and up. Consideration and customization according to developmental levels will be given. Teams, individual athletes in groups or association meetings may participate.

Sessions are organized in ‘bite size’ chunks in order to facilitate better concentration and retention. They are also highly interactive and fun, the way learning about mental skills was intended! Your child will love learning to perform “out of their mind”.

Session topics:

Targeted visualization and the power of imagination
