Book Private Track-and-field Lessons with Coach Vanessa

My career started at Fullerton College at the age of 35 with five kids. I became a hornet and made a name for myself in Track& Field. I never ran less than six events at every track meet. I was a force to be reckoned with. I hold titles in the 400 meters and the 800 meters. I received many scholarship offers but chose to run on a professional level with a professional coach. I was able to go to the Olympic Trials in 2012 in the 400 meter's. I became a Head Track Coach at Warren High School in Downey California where I became one of the most feared coaches in the league. Durning my time we took league two years in a row. My last year there we took league on all levels. I have a Master's in Coaching and Athletic Administration. I have developed young athletes who went on to do great things some who are now coaching other's.

My first thing is to help you improve your mental game. 99%t of any competition is in your head first. I teach you how to overcome negative self talk and how to replace that voice with one that is nice, gentle and celebrates the small victories. Everything starts in training the completion is your treat. You will know that you are ready because I prepare you in practice. I empty my knowledge and power into you. Your game will step up because your coach knows what it takes to succeed on all levels. No matter what age you are, you will be above the rest. I will teach you what it means to take complete control over your destiny. You will know when it's Game Time and you will know when its Game Over!!

A typical training session looks likes this with me. First of all, I check your temperature. I briefly check to see how your day was so that I can see where we are mentally. Once that is all squared away and you know that you matter as a person first! I will then get you going on the warm up. I will make sure we properly warm up, stretch, drill, and get ready for the workout.Depending on what day it is and what goals we have we will begin the training. The first part of the session is not where the fun begins. The fun begins towards the end of the session when your mentally, and physically tired. It is then that I will teach you how to finish when you feel like giving in and giving up. Once we finish training we will cool down and stretch properly. You will already have your nutrition with you to refuel after practice. I will remind you that it takes three things to be the best. 1. The desire, The Coach, and The Nutrition. All three must be in harmony for the best outcome.

The best coach I ever had was Coach Kiefer at Fullerton college. He taught me to push through the pain he never gave me any bread to go with my whine!!! He believed in me when I doubt myself. He transformed my life with his love and knowledge for Track & Field. He taught me the importance of mental toughness and not sharing your pie until you were done with your task. Because of this experience I was a amazing athlete and now I am an amazing coach.

Parent's what you should know about me is I develop student athletes. I take training very serious and I teach athletes how to apply what they learn to the classroom and life. You can count on me to help your athlete become stronger mentally and physically. You will notice after a few sessions how much more confident and disciplined your athlete is. What you drop off to me will never return the same. They will come back to you will plus signs. I don't do minuses. We work hard and we work till were done not to be done.
