Building resilient athletes who perform when it matters most.
Building resilient athletes who perform when it matters most.
I help athletes build the mental strength to perform under pressure by teaching practical tools rooted in breath control, mindfulness, and emotional regulation. In high-stress moments, most athletes lose composure before they lose skill. I coach them to regulate their nervous system, refocus quickly after mistakes, and compete with clarity instead of chaos. My approach blends performance psychology with simple, repeatable techniques athletes can use in real competition — not just in theory. The result is greater confidence, resilience, and the ability to rise when it matters most.

About Me:
I’m a mental strength coach, certified teacher, and former corporate leader who has spent the last decade helping athletes, parents, and schools navigate pressure, performance, and big emotions.
I’ve worked with professional athletes, youth competitors, and school communities, and I believe mental strength isn’t about hype — it’s about calm, awareness, and resilience. In today’s world of over-scheduled kids and rising pressure, I help athletes develop tools that last far beyond the game.
How I can help you improve your game:
I help athletes:
• Develop reset routines after mistakes
• Handle pressure in big moments
• Separate identity from performance
• Build confidence rooted in preparation
• Improve focus and present-moment awareness
Mental strength is a skill — and like any skill, it can be trained.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
Sessions are practical, interactive, and immediately applicable.
We combine:
• Performance psychology principles
• Breathing and nervous system regulation
• Scenario-based training (game simulations)
• Reflection and self-awareness tools
Athletes leave with specific strategies they can use in their next practice or game — not abstract motivation.
Career summary and accomplishments:
• Certified teacher in Georgia (K–12) • Trained in MSPE - Mindful Sport Performance Enhancement • Former yoga and mindfulness teacher to the Miami Dolphins and numerous professional athletes • Led a clinical research study on yoga, mindfulness, and veterans with The University of South Florida • TEDx speaker • Author of An Unlikely Yogi For over a decade, I’ve worked at the intersection of performance, resilience, and human development — helping athletes build composure, clarity, and confidence under pressure.
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I ever had demanded accountability but never attached my worth to my performance.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I care deeply about protecting kids from unnecessary pressure.
I will challenge athletes — but I will never shame them.
My goal isn’t just to improve performance. It’s to help young athletes develop resilience, emotional control, and confidence that carries into school, relationships, and life.
Because sports end.
Character doesn’t.

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!
