Group Sessions Begin on Monday, July 6th/Thursday, July 9th, 2020 @ 7:00pm
Every athlete recognizes that their sport is not just physical – it’s also mental. However, many athletes do not spend nearly enough time training the mental side of their game. As athletes begin returning to their sports in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, KPEX Consulting is offering a small-group virtual mental training program for athletes interested in improving their mental skills and developing their mental toughness. Led by Donato Fanelle, this virtual training program will teach athletes how they can develop and improve key mental skills. Groups will meet once a week for 6 weeks, with sessions running for about 45 minutes each. Through engaging discussions and hands-on learning, attendees will learn about the principles of sport psychology and how to navigate the challenges and uncertainty of returning to their sports. By the end of the program, athletes will be able to apply mental skills in sports and life and understand how to be mentally tough in challenging and stressful situations.
Mondays: Ages 12 to 16 (recommended)
Thursdays: Ages 17+ (recommended)
