Get to know Coach Jini
About Me:
I am a mental coach who believes we can continuously grow as human beings throughout life when we put in the effort. With this belief, I help my clients (athletes, coaches, and parents) grow both personally and professionally through mental skills training. In my time with clients, I value integrity, open-mindedness, and curiosity.
How I can help you improve your game:
I provide private mental skills sessions personalized to your needs (e.g., emotion management, communication, confidence, focus, and more). To ensure effective personalization, you will have your own online mental skills book, which I will create for you. This book includes: session summaries, your values and goals, your strengths, and the mental skills you will practice.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
I first connect with you through a discovery call, free of charge. During this call, I will explore your needs to better personalize your sessions. It is also an opportunity for you to decide whether I am the right fit for you.
If you choose to move forward, we will meet weekly or bi-weekly (weekly is recommended for the best results). After each session, I will update your personalized online mental skills book with a session summary and progress tracking. By the end of our work together, you will have built your own story of growth.
Career summary and accomplishments:
I am a Mental Performance Coach with over 4 years of experience helping athletes build confidence, focus, and mental toughness. I have worked with youth, high school varsity, NCAA Division I, and professional athletes across sports such as basketball, soccer, American football, and jiu-jitsu. I have supported Division I teams in reducing game anxiety and improving resilience, contributing to a conference championship season, and have helped a professional jiu-jitsu athlete achieve her first win at the IBJJF World Championship through personalized mental training. My coaching style is simple, practical, and athlete-centered. I focus on helping athletes stay calm under pressure, stay locked in during competition, and perform with confidence when it matters most.
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I’ve ever had is Coach Myke Scholl, who’s in the picture holding the championship trophy. Even when I doubted my own abilities as a graduate assistant, he continually reminded me of my potential and welcomed me onto the team as a mental coach. Despite all the areas I still had to improve, he chose to see my potential rather than my limits. Through his actions, he taught me the value of growing together. For the clients I meet—past, present, and future—I want to be the kind of coach who makes them feel that we grow together.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I want you to know how excited I am to be a part of your journey. I moved to the U.S. 4 years ago to pursue my dream of becoming a mental performance coach. And now, here I am—living that dream—and I’m truly grateful to work with you. My sincere passion for this field motivates me to give my best effort, which has led to many meaningful outcomes (e.g., contributing to a conference championship season). I’m excited to help you write your own story of growth.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I contact a coach?
If you’re looking to message a coach for the first time, go to their profile and click “Send a Message”. A type box will show, where you can enter and send your message. To follow up with a coach you've already contacted, log into your account and find the 'Inbox' tab. You'll see your message history and be able to send another note.
How do I book lessons?
Once you find a coach that fits your needs, go to their profile, select the package you'd like to purchase, and click 'Book Lessons'. Here, you can reserve your desired number of lessons along with the number of athletes who will be training. After sessions are booked, coordinate the dates/times for each session on your calendar - using the calendar is important since this is how your coach will get paid.
Can I pay my coach via Venmo or cash?
Paying AU coaches via cash, Venmo, or any 3rd party is strictly prohibited. AU coaches know this, but their partnership with us is to split all bookings 80/20 - so coaches keep 80%. We use our 20% to help them find clients & manage their business. Without the split, we wouldn't be able to help our coaches & community thrive!
What if I don't feel comfortable paying online?
We integrate with Stripe - the largest & most secure payment processor in the US - to facilitate bookings. Paying online is required, and it simplifies the process for our coaches since it helps track their schedule & earnings in one place. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.
Where will the coach hold their lessons?
Each coach typically has at least one preferred training location. You can see the location(s) by going to your coach's profile and finding the 'Training Locations' section. If a coach doesn't have locations listed here, you can message the coach to see where they train. Some coaches are willing to travel to clients for lessons, or even meet halfway.
When is the coach available to train?
Each coach sets their own schedule for training. You can see a coach's general availability by going to their profile and finding the 'Availability' section - it will list the days and times. If a coach doesn't post their availability, or if your preferred coach doesn't have your desired times available but you want to double check, message them to see if they can work with your schedule.
What if I don't love the first lesson?
The AU guarantee (refund policy) has you covered! If you find yourself needing to cancel or adjust your booking within 24 hours of your purchase, just let us know. We'll provide a refund - no questions asked. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we're here to support your learning journey.
Do coaches work with both kids & adults?
Our coaches are open to helping athletes of any age and skill level. Please message your desired coach to ensure their skillset fits your needs.
Why should I trust AU and their coaches over other platforms?
AU was created by former collegiate and professional athletes. We understand the benefits of training with a private coach. It develops discipline, boosts confidence, and provides an undeniable advantage - whether you are just learning the game or looking to earn a college scholarship. All AU coaches are required to pass a thorough onboarding process and we proudly showcase a 10% acceptance rate, so you can trust you're training with the best.
At the end of the day, our mission is to provide athletes with better opportunities to succeed through coaching. You won't find a platform, and group of dedicated specialists, more excited to help you achieve your athletic goals!
