Creative tools utilized include active imagination, photo collage, visualization, breathing and yoga techniques. Phone consultations are available. Phone and court-side consultations are available.

Competition

Human beings are competitive by nature. We have survived and prospered as a species because of our competitive drive. Engaging in athletic competitions helps to sharpen our survival tools. Sports are a metaphor for life, helping individuals face weaknesses, strengths, successes and failures in a contained atmosphere. Using self-reflection as an athlete increases awareness of triggers, growth edges and potential. Focusing on the journey, not the destination allows for greater pleasure and learning. What more do we want from life?
