We are very grateful and look forward to continuing to work with Natasha. I highly recommend her and CEP Mindset. Less

The mindset & visualization skills/toolkit they are creating together - is helping Taylor overcome any fears and/or mental blocks she’s faced with as a high level competitive gymnast. Within the first couple of weeks, we already noticed a shift in Taylor’s confidence and mindset. Plus, Taylor looks forward to her meetings with coach Sara. So it’s a true win-win! Most importantly, the skills/techniques Taylor’s learning will not only help her at gymnastics but we know she will carry them with her throughout life… simply invaluable. Less
Both my 10 and 12 year old took away lots from their session with Sara. Looking forward to putting some of it into practice.
Sara has been a game-changing influence for our daughter’s confidence on the ice. Instantly, we could see a difference with her presence, confidence and attitude- she started to relax and have fun again. I had parents approach me about her laser focus and dynamic play.

Natasha was amazing for my volleyball career this year. She helped me to keep working out while keeping my mindset right. Super positive and encouraging, taught me how to be a better leader for my team and so much more.

The CEP Mindset experience has been outstanding for my son Kyle (2008 born AAA hockey goalie). Kyle was paired with with Mindset coach Max Stefanakos identified by the CEP team based on his competitive hockey goalie background & experience. The regular exchanges via video chat through the CEP program, have not only helped develop & build Kyle’s mental focus in his sport, but also a great connection with Max, who developed a “safe space” to discuss general life challenges as well. Max truly has gone over and above with his support of Kyle this season, which has over exceeded my expectations. I would strongly recommend the CEP program and specifically coach Max Stefanakos to any young Athletes interested in improving & taking their performance to the next level! Mark Less
my son worked with Gabe and it was a great experience. Sometimes as parents we ar enot sure how to make the situation better. Gabe was very professional and he had some great sessions withmy son. My son is in competitive hockey.
CEP mindset has helped me learn to prioritize my mindset and be more centred during my games, which has translated into improving my gameplay confidence and decision-making. Working with Sara has been a game changer this season and I have developed so many great tools to use that even extend beyond the rink and into day to day life.
The coach I received was named Nicholas Santino, he is a very fun but serious coach that I look up to and admire. At the start of the season, I didn’t have the best confidence and was scared of what most thought of me, but now he helped me change that and I have grown lots from his knowledge.
You can’t go wrong! Whether you’re strengthening your mindset for athletics or life, CEP gives you the skills to perform at your best. To become elite at your skill on & off field/ice/office. Sara is both professional, knowledgeable & educational.
I’ve had such a good experience working with CEP Mindset, specifically Nicholas Santino. He has helped me elevate the mental side of my game and has given me a vast range of tools to work with. I would recommend CEP to any athlete wanting to improve their game off the ice and see it translate to their on-ice performance. Definitely something I will continue to do through out my career.
My daughter has been working with Sara for the past few months. Working with her has helped her confidence and teach her valuable skills on how to deal with difficult situations. She was friendly and gained her trust quickly to make her feel comfortable opening up and participating.
Gabe has been a critical part of my hockey goalie's success in his first year at the AAA level. He struggled most with his mindset at practice.

There was an instant connection and Gabe was amazing at helping him cope with the mental pressures and focusing and regaining his passion and enjoyment of the game. Gabe has also allowed our son to realize that this is a long road with many ups and downs, but the techniques he has taught him will certainly help him in all aspects of his life. Thank you, Gabe, for all you do! We highly recommend Gabe and CEP Mindset. Less
Sara has tremendously helped me with my mindset on and off the ice. There is an evident difference in my play, working with her has strengthened my game and I can’t thank her enough.

I worked with Nick Santino and we were able to form a great relationship. We worked on ways to improve my mental state while playing and it truly has been helping me be more present and consistent on the ice. There are many tools from this I will continue to use on the ice as well as in my day to day life. Overall, nothing but good things to say!

My name is Katie and I'm 13 years old. Working with Sara has helped me so much and has given me new opportunities in sports. We worked mostly on Leadership and putting my teammates first. As a very athletic and extremely competitive athlete, some of my biggest challenges were being nice to everybody and putting my team first in difficult and hard situations. Sara taught me how to be a better leader which has made me a better athlete. Since working with Sarah, I’ve learned so many different strategies to be a nice and encouraging leader. I had always wanted to be a captain and a good leader but I struggled when losing and I would blame other people. After about seven months of working with Sara, I was able to control myself and was announced captain on my team. I have achieved my goal and I have been able to find new strategies when I'm upset or mad. I’ve had such a fun experience with Sara. Less

His confidence has returned, and he is able to get into his mental zone, focus on playing the game and filter out the “noise” of things he has no control over. I am grateful for the CEP program and happy to make this investment in my son’s mental well being. He is learning mental and behavioural performance techniques he can use throughout his life, not only in sport. I have full confidence in the considerable expertise and experience Coach Nicholas brings to each session. I highly recommend his program to any athlete or team that is looking for that extra edge.

Sara has helped me utilize my tools in games consistently while keeping a strong mindset. My Games have gone from a up and down experience to a place where I am focused on the bigger goal and can develop. She has gone above and beyond to help me grow and consistently perform at my highest level.
Our players showed notable improvements in performance and mental toughness, contributing to an overall more resilient team. Highly recommended for teams and players seeking a solid base in mental skills training.
The program and people are top notch and it’s been amazing to watch the growth my son has made since starting with Adam Carter and CEP Mindset.
Before my son started working with Nicholas at CEP Mindset, he often felt stressed and anxious before his hockey games. He would often be in his head while playing and if something went wrong in a game, he would have a hard time bouncing back from it.

Before my son started working with Nicholas at CEP Mindset, he often felt stressed and anxious before his hockey games. He would often be in his head while playing and if something went wrong in a game, he would have a hard time bouncing back from it. Since working with Nicholas, I have noticed a remarkable transformation in my son’s game and so have his coaches. He is no longer fearful, approaches each game with confidence and can reset quickly if he has an off shift. Nicholas was able to easily connect with my son, and the mental tools and techniques that my son learned through this program was exactly what he needed. Thank you Nicholas for helping my son become the confident and skilled player that he was before! For any hockey player struggling with similar challenges, I highly recommend Nicholas. His expertise in mental performance coaching is outstanding, and the results speak for themselves. Less
I can't say enough about my experience with CEP Mindset. My coach, Sara, really listened to me & provided me with some very useful tools to enhance not only my mindset, but my coaching at the college level. I will defintely continue to utilize this organization.
I wish I would have started with them sooner! Has transformed my mindset and character as a person and athlete completely. Very Grateful for coach Adam who has helped me along my journey to being mindset first.
Gabe has been fantastic with our son they have became great friends. Our son feels very comfortable with Gabe and feels he can really trust him. We have seen an improvement in his off and on ice mental game. Highly recommend him to anyone looking.
Adam Carter has been a phenomenal mentor for me! He has helped me not only while playing hockey, but with my life goals and leadership skills as well. His mentorship abilities are top notch!!
Working with Adam from CEPMindset was one of the best decisions I’ve made for my sports career, in the time we worked together I gained a stronger self confidence, mental game, and strategies to help reset when things went wrong.

Playing a sport as my full time job, I reached out to CEP with some high goals that needed to be fulfilled and ever since then CEP overdelivered in every way. I've worked specifically with Natasha over the past three months. I couldn't have been paired with a better coach, I was able to connect with Natasha in so many ways. Although she did a fantastic job at introducing new concepts that had a way of building onto one another that I could apply immediately in my sport, she did an amazing job at working through every sudden road block that popped up in season for me. Im a different athlete after this program and I'm now playing the most consistent volleyball I have ever played in my 14 years of this sport. Can't thank you enough Natasha and CEP! Less
My daughter really benefited from and enjoyed her work with Alexis. It helped her pre-game preparation, her on-ice performance, and most importantly her enjoyment of the game. The work gives her a great foundation for the future in all aspects of her life.

I was someone who struggled with the mental strength in my sport, but I have learned so many new strategies that bring out my best self each and every day. Personally, I struggled with playing consistent every game and trusting myself and my abilities. I was very hard on myself and expected to be perfect every single day. Coach Sara has guided me to grasp my true self, not doubt myself anymore, and play the game I love without worrying about the results. I really appreciate all her help in my journey and I cannot wait to continue with her and grow even more! Less
Sara did a 1 time team call with my High School girls Hockey team and she did a great job giving them new tools in their tool belt for times of adversity. There now is a common language on our team that helps us be on the same page to move forward and up. I would for sure recommend her!
Sean was very helpful in motivating my son to mentally prepare to put in the required effort to perform well at basketball & school. My son’s outlook & self confidence towards facing any uncertainty or challenge has improved drastically.
I play a high level of both hockey and soccer and sara Reichenbach has really helped me be more consistent and shift my mindset onto improving myself and becoming the best version of myself consistently.
Best thing I could have done for myself as an athlete Adam has been a great mental coach. He was always available for me when I needed him and I have been playing some of the best basketball of my career. Thankyou
Nicholas helped me threw my injury. He prepared me for my new season in sweden and it is going very well at the moment.

The CEPmindset program is amazing, and Sara has really integrated the "psychology" of the program; when she teaches or explains the concepts and goals of the session, it feels so natural. She has impressive listening skills; she receives my thoughts, cleans/refines them, and is on point when summarizing my ideas. I feel she is always giving the best of herself, and I really appreciate it; It also pushes me positively to give my best. I don’t want to think too much about it… but I will be “sad” when my coaching year ends. Less
Amazing experience with CEP Mindset. Gabe was incredible! He was so patient and so helpful to our 10-year-old son.I can 100% say my son is a much better player , thanks to Gabe’s hard work. I cannot recommend them enough. If your child is struggling with anxiety on the ice, get CEP to help.
Our son has made huge strides in his mental game as a goalie since working with Coach Max. He has tools that he can now pull out to combat nerves for big games and try outs. The skills he has learned translate to off ice too and will certainly help him in all aspect of his life. We look forward to continuing to work with Max to further hone these skills as he grows up.
My son started working with Sara over the summer and she has done a great job helping him this season including handling the adversity of the first injury he has suffered since playing hockey (he is an 18U AAA goalie). As both a goalie parent and goalie coach I highly recommend Sara to help with the mental side of the game.
It's been great working with Sara. I've learned a lot about myself, working towards being confident, resetting after mistakes, and levelling up. I feel I've really grown as a person and player since starting.
I have had a very understanding counselor (Adam Carter) who was guided me to some specific actions I can use to resolve my tennis playing issues. This has already greatly helped resolve my problems.
My U18 Girls Hockey Team had a workshop by CEP, given by Sara. The information that was shared and worked on has helped our girls immensely.

Sara has been a huge help in guiding me to stay in the zone and how to not let myself fall too negative or positive but to stay neutral . And how to help catch myself when I become to hard on myself and teaching me how to use my reset routine when I get to hard on myself. From starting these meetings I’ve noticed I put less pressure on myself and I’m letting go of little mistakes easier. Sara has given me good advice and tips and always tells me it’s ok to not always be perfect because no one is. I can also use everything sara teaches me outside of sports too and I feel like a better person now since I’ve started these meetings. Sara makes these meetings fun and enjoyable and she’s really funny and nice,I always feel better after talking with her! Less
I have been working with Cassidy for a little under a year and since then my mental game has improved a ton. As a hockey player breaking free from a lot of mental barriers is starting to take my game to another level. Cassidy is a great guy to work with and would definitely recommend to any other athletes out there looking to amp up their mental side of the game.
I worked with Coach Sara and she helped me a lot.

I am competing way better then I ever have and I have become more consistent and positive about myself. Highly recommend to everyone . Less

Sara has been an invaluable asset to my daughter's hockey journey. Her expertise as a mindset coach goes beyond the physical aspects of the game, extending to a profound understanding of the mental challenges athletes face. My daughter not only admires Sara but also benefits greatly from the insightful conversations they share. Sara's ability to translate her teachings into practical on-ice strategies and off-ice mental resilience has truly made a difference in my daughter's overall performance and enjoyment of the sport. I wholeheartedly recommend Sara for her exceptional guidance and positive influence. Less
I had a great experience with CEP. Their services do not just help elites. I am a back of the pack marathon runner who wanted to improve my mindset. Natasha worked with me over 3 months. I feel more energized and content in my running. I wish that I had done this years ago.
We had coach Sara for a virtual session for our U15 and U18 female hockey teams. So much useful information packed into a one hour session! Sara was very personable and relatable as a female hockey player. Thank you so much!
My daughter has been working with Sara three months. I can see some of the skills my daughter is learning to keep herself focused and not as flustered in certain situations. She is also more confidence on the court. As with any new skill there is more work to be done, but so far she is seeing good results. I'm looking forward to seeing what she builds on.

CEP Mindset's Sarah Reichenbach provides the perfect blend of mental skills training and practical application to unlock the next performance level for Pro, Collegiate and advanced Amatuer hockey players. Her background as a fomer Professional Player in Switzerland, Division 1 Collegiate Player at St Lawrence University and Coach at Maine and Darmouth allow her to truly understand and relate to the mental challenges for all players. This deep insight of the player mindset coupled with her psychology background and proven mental strategies and skills helps players not only unlock their next level of performance, but consistently perform at that level as their new baseline. I highly recommend Sarah for those looking to take the next step to train their mental game with the same energy as their on and off ice training. Less
Sara has been my coach for one year since I was 10 and she has helped me a lot with my mindfulness skills. She helped me with hockey, track and field and soccer. She made me not feel nervous and think of the positives.

Our daughter has been working with Sara for the past 6 months. We have seen an increase in her confidence both on the ice and in her ability to deal with adversity in other areas of her life. CP mindset was a great choice for our daughter and helped her to move forward in her life both in school and hockey.
Working with Sara R. has really helped me improve my game! Highly recommend!
Both of my daughters (High Performance Hockey players) are clients of CEP mindset (Sara R). That have learned to celebrate their small successes and be more positive with their self talk. The improvements have shown on the ice! I recommend Sara and CEP mindset to those elite players who want to consistently perform at their best. Thanks!
Sara taught me how my mindset can really impact my game. Thanks Sara
Had a great experience with Sara. Definitely seen major improvements in my mindset. Went from only being happy when I did well to happy to be on the ice. Tried other paths but nothing has worked as well as this.
CEP Mindset helped me finish a 50K race that had broken me 3 times before. Their program and coaching made all the difference to help me through barriers to achieve my best self in Killington at the hardest obstacle course Ultra in North America. Aroo!

My daughter is not one to open up about anything but Sara has managed to build a relationship with her that provides her an outlet which has been incredible. As well Sara is open to communicating with me and keeping me in the loop. Of course not breaching any confidentiality and trust but it truly it takes a village. So thankful to Sara!
Sara has been an amazing coach in helping me through the mentally tough challenges I face in competition. She has provided me with numerous techniques and strategies to help me stay consistent and focused throughout the whole game. I am so thankful for her!
Our daughter Isabella is a basketball athlete who has been working with Sara since April 2023. Sara’s has helped on many different levels through her compassion, empathy and knowledge. Her experience as an athlete has helped her to take our daughter’s mental strength and ability to reach the next level.

Anything less than perfection causes him to doubt his abilities and gets in the way of his performance. After meeting with Coach Nicholas, our son understands that every setback is an opportunity for learning and growth, and he has devised a reset strategy with Coach Nicholas that allows him to accept the setback, learn from it, and get his head back in the game quickly for the next play. We can't thanks Coach Nicholas enough - this kid is a whole new athlete! Less

He was losing his temper and could not focus on the game. This was becoming a regular issue and interfering with his ability. Since working with Sean, our son has turned things around. He has a routine when things don’t go his way, and is now able to put that in the past and focus on the experience, not just the outcome. He has come out of his shell and his confidence has improved immensely. He feels much better about his performance and has valuable skills that not only help him at the ballpark, but also in life.

I've been able to go back to really appreciating and looking forward to soccer, something I hadn't experienced in over a year before starting my program. Thank you CEP, and thank you Max! Less
Having a call each week has really been helping me in and out of sports. I think is definitely something I would recommend to get an advantage on the competition, as well as being able to talk to someone and learn new things. I’m happy with my progress and my coach Max has really been helping me.
My daughter started working with Sara in her rookie year of Div 1 hockey. Her desire to succeed propelled her but it also overwhelmed her.. Sara helped her see some patterns in thinking that she hadn’t even realized were hurting her performance. Where I used to see self-doubt I now see so much confidence. I know Sara will take her to a whole new level once again this season. Thank you Sara!!

I was always aware of the importance of mental performance training; however for myself it was the weakest part of my training as an athlete. With me training to make the jump to the next level in boxing I would highly recommend CEP Mindset & Nicholas Santino to any athlete who is prepared to commit and endure the process and journey of developing as an athlete and person as a whole. One experience I continue to be aware of is showing up to training with intention. Not just showing up and going through the motions. I hope to those who are undecided will look over this review and be confident with there choice to develop a plan with personalized plan with CEP mindset! Less

It's been a great experience for my athlete child. Her coach (Natasha) is absolutely amazing, attentive and kind. We need to train the mind just as much as we train our bodies. I can see the progress and happy that my daughter has someone that understands the sport of volleyball. So glad that we came across CEP and even more grateful to be matched with Natasha.
Highly recommend working with Coach Gabe at CEP. He supported my son in building up his mental approach to basketball. He was non-judgmental, listened to him, and didn’t offer quick and easy advice. He taught him to be his best self and not to dwell on mistakes. While it’s still a work in progress I have seen growth and maturity in my son. My family is grateful to Coach Gabe and the CEP approach.
Sara has been working with my daughter for the past six months as she transitions from prep hockey to U Sport. We've noticed improvements in her confidence as well as her ability to handle stress and adversity. Overall, we are extremely pleased with our experience with both Sara and CEP Mindset
Working with Sara and using the CEP mindset techniques greatly improved my performance. Sara helped me find my confidence and push through the things I can’t control! One session helped me to achieve my goal and I don’t think I could have done it as easily without Sara’s help and support

My son is a 10-year-old hockey player who struggles with anxiety, not only around hockey but in many uncomfortable circumstances. After working with coach Sara and the CEP mindset system he has been able to manage his anxiety by focusing on his breathing techniques and embracing is alter-ego. I am so grateful that he has grown in his ability to manage these strong emotions.
Working with Sara has been a great experience for me. My confidence as an athlete has increased and I have learned how to focus less on results determining my success. It’s helpful having someone outside of my circle of family and friends to be able to talk to about athletic performance, goals, and problems.

It is comforting for us to witness the noticeable changes in our 13-year-old’s behaviour and attitude in the past few months. Kristen has been on a path of self-improvement, with the help of Sara, displaying commendable effort to control her temper and cope with challenging situations gracefully. One aspect that stands out is Kristen’s newfound ability to handle disappointment and frustration a little better. She has shown remarkable growth in managing her emotions when things to not go her way. At trampoline, we observed how she applied the strategies shared with her by Sara to stay focused after one event to prepare for the next even after receiving her results. This level of maturity and determination bodes well for her future endeavors. Furthermore, Kristen’s resilience on the softball field impressed us greatly. When faced with a potentially stressful situation, being run over by a player, she managed to maintain her composure, a significant achievement considering it had been a hurdle for her in the past. Her ability to stay calm under pressure speaks volume about her progress. While Kristen may not be entirely open about her experiences and challenges, we must commend Sara’s patience and understanding in communicating with her. Building trust and establishing a strong rapport with a young person can be challenging, and Sara’s efforts in supporting Kristen’s growth are truly admirable. Less

I initially learned of CEP Mindset through Cassidy's presentation on The Coaches Site. I listened to a few Beyond Xs and Os podcasts and read some of the content before committing. My 13 year old daughter is a competitive hockey player and started initially working with Sam and transitioned over to Sara. She has really enjoyed working with both coaches and looks forward to their sessions. There are a couple of items that have had an impact on her mindset as a player. The first is her ability to control her emotions mid-game using the in-game reset that she has learned. She is a very cerebral player and her brain can blow mistakes out of proportion. Secondly, the development of the alter ego has helped pre-game prep and combating negative self-talk when things get tough. I am very appreciative for the coaches approach and the framework that is being used to establish a strong and healthy mindset for my daughter both as a player and a person. Less
Amazing experience working with the CEP team over the past year. Nicholas Santino is an amazing guy with a ton of knowledge to help you take your game to the next level. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to step up their mental game and change the way you play.
I have been working with Cassidy for over a month. He has helped me greatly turn my season around. He has helped me find myself again and helped me show my skills. Chatting with him was very easy and I’m very grateful for it. Would definitely recommend doing it.

I would highly recommend CEP Mindset. They make the mental health side of sport a priority – giving athletes the tools to perform at high levels on and off the field. My daughter was suffering from anxiety attacks when she stepped on to the soccer pitch, often ending with her hyperventilating and needing to be subbed off. She was lacking in confidence and did not know how get out of her head if things did not go well. She was scared to let her team and coach down. She was hesitant to try the CEP program – stating that she was dealing with things just fine. After a few sessions with Coach Sara - she settled in and got to work. Sara made her feel comfortable and was able to present ideas at her level. Sara has been able to help her get out of her head. She is now able to separate the over all result from her own performance and evaluate how she actually played versus defaulting to “I played like trash”. She is able to reset when something does not go to plan and most importantly she looks like she is having fun again! The joy is back on her face when she steps on the pitch. This service is well worth the money – we invest so much time, effort and money into sports but often do not invest in the mental aspect of it. Athletes need a healthy mind as well as a healthy body.

Their program has had a remarkable impact; relieving our child of unnecessary, self-imposed pressure and emphasizing the importance of enjoying the sport. They have also helped our child discover a clear purpose behind their participation and who they are as an athlete. As a result of this journey, we have witnessed a significant boost in our child's confidence, skill level, and leadership abilities. Additionally, the valuable concepts taught and reinforced by the program have proven beneficial in other aspects of our child's life as well. We are immensely grateful to Coach Adam and the entire program for their structured and compassionate approach, which has brought about a tremendous transformation in our young athlete. Less
Our son has made significant positive changes in his mental game when playing baseball. He is much more resilient and confident than earlier in the season! Looking forward to the football and basketball seasons with his new mindset! Thanks to Sean for all Of his hardwork!
I have been working with Sara since February, and ever since both my confidence and game have grown tremendously. She is extremely knowledgeable in what she does and has helped me improve my performance. Not only that, she is an incredible person and so easy to talk to. I look forward to continuing to improve with her!!!
My 9 year old daughter is having sessions with Sara. Sara helps her to have a mindset to push herself during practice. The techniques she learned from Sara has been helping her to become a better athlete.

I've worked with Sara Reichenbach for the past year and I've grown so much as a person during that time. My awareness of my mindset has greatly improved and our meetings have equipped me with the skills to self-reflect and enact change when necessary in order to be the best version of myself as a person, student, and athlete. I always look forward to my meetings with Sara!
I’ve been working with Nick for 4 months and i’ve already seen great results in my sport performance! I was struggling with self doubt and the fear of disappointment. Working with Nick has helped me build a strong mindset and has given me the tools to help reach my full potential!
I have been working with Coach Alexis for the past few months and have seen so many changes in the arena and everyday life. So glad I made the decision to be apart of the CEP. Highly Recommend.

After researching a few programs we enrolled our 12 year old son who loves sports but, as most kids, needs a bit of help managing expectations. We weren't sure if he was ready for this but he wanted to give it a go. To be honest we are not sure of the extent that he benefitted. We spoke to reps from CEP Mindset prior to signing up and they assured us that this was geared for young kids. There is a lot of content in this program but the instructor was good and he only focus on a limited number of concepts so it wasn't so overwhelming. We found that the emails that were sent proving links to instructional videos and content were geared towards adults. For the price and the discussion about being geared to kids, we expected that there would be more age-specific content. As parents we felt it was a good introduction to concepts, but for the price expected a little bit more. After our son has gone through the program, our conclusion is the we should have waited until he was 16 so he could get more out of it. Less
(My daughter (12 years old) plays minor travel hockey. This is her review.) It took me a bit to get used to the program because I wasn't used to talking to people about how I felt on the ice. If you can get past that barrier, it really is quite beneficial. I learned specific strategies to help my anxieties.
Nicholas is an amazing coach. He has really helped me with my game. I highly recommend.
Working with nic has really helped my mindset. Overthinking, confidence, and overall state of mind have all been improved working with him.
I was lucky enough to have begun working with Coach DePiero earlier this year. He has taught me how to develop my mindset and preparation before preforming. Since working with CEP, I have improved my confidence in myself and in my abilities.
My name is Danielle and I am 14 year old hockey player. I enjoyed working with Sara. She helped me with my pre-game routine, as well as my in-game reset after things didn't go well. I am looking forward to working with her again in the fall. The only downside was having to switch from Sam to Sara halfway through my sessions. I'd definitely recommend working with the CEP mindset team.
Sara has been helping with gaining confidence, keeping focused and learning that it's ok to make mistakes. She works with us pertaining to rep hockey, rep soccer and track and field.
I play hockey and run track and field, I have experienced many mental blocks and doubts about myself through the season Sara Reichenbach has helped me so much throughout my season, and helped me overcome the battles I had been fighting with my mind, she is very fun to work with and always gives a good laugh when talking to her!

Hi, I’m Sydney Semiga and I play for the Jr Lady Sens. I thought it would be helpful to share my experience working with coach Sarah from Consistent Elite Performance. Before I started the CEP Mindset system, I struggled with my confidence and consistency performing at my top level. When I came across CEP, I knew these coach’s were going to benefit my game. I knew a CEP mindset program was what I needed but wasn’t sure it would really work. Once I did my free 30-minute intro session and started a program, I noticed big improvements in my mental and physical game. Creating a personal reset routine that worked for me was game changing. I was able to cope with different mental blocks and obstacles. Now that i’ve consistently implemented the strategies i’ve learned from CEP, i’ve been able to perform with confidence at my top level. So to any other athletes struggling or looking to improve their mental game, I encourage you to book a free intro session with one of the CEP coaches. Less

My 14 year-old daughter's hockey team has worked with the CEP Mindset team during the past 2 seasons. During this season, we registered her for individual sessions in order to help with her confidence and preparation. She originally was working with Sam and then transitioned to Sara upon Sam's departure. It is difficult to measure the total benefit of working with a mindset coach, but we were pleased with the progress that was made in several areas. She developed a pre game routine, as well as a way to reset during games if things weren't going well. She definitely learned to let go of mistakes and not let them impact the way she played the remainder of the game. The only down side was switching half way through our sessions from Sam to Sara. It seemed like we were starting back near the beginning with her progress. That being said, Sara was truly amazing. She has a great background in order to relate to female hockey players and is also an an excellent communicator. I would highly recommend working with her. We are currently taking a break for the summer but will reconnect in the fall with Sara. Less
I have really enjoyed meeting with nick. I feel like I am able to understand what my thought process is and what it should be. This has allowed me to preform better and with less stress. Which has ultimately lead to me enjoying sports more.
My son has always been an anxious kid. Playing the goalie position has had its challenges. Working with Adam Carter of CEP Mindset has changed my sons perspective on how to deal and approach not only games but life.

I joined the CEP Mindset program with Coach Adam Carter in January 2023 to address some confidence issues I was experiencing in my hockey career. Coach Adam helped me learn how to calm my nerves on the ice and in other life situations, which really helped me improve. Before I started this program I had trouble with my mental game and tapping into my skills in game situations. Coach Adam helped by teaching me several tools, including using a reset routine which calmed my mind and allowed me to use my skills more effectively during games. Training with Coach Adam has been a great decision because I now know how to harness my nerves during games, and I’ve learned how to play with confidence and trust in my skills. Coach Adam has been a huge factor in my recent success, and I will continue to work with him to improve on other areas of my mental game. The concepts that Coach Adam and the CEP program teach will help players push ahead of the competition, and allow a player to tap into their full skill-set and potential. I would 100% recommend this program to any athlete struggling with their mental game! Less
Coach Adam has helped my son immensely with his confidence on and off the ice, I highly recommend this program for hockey players of all ages

Working with Dr. Cassidy over the past 3 years has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made for my development as a hockey player. Over these 3 years, I completed the CEP online course, which was awesome in helping me build a strong foundation of mental skills before I continued to hone, build, and refine those skills through group and 1on1 calls with Dr. Cassidy. In the past two years specifically playing in the OHL, Dr. Cassidy has helped me tremendously in dealing with really stressful and difficult situations at times. His support in our weekly check-ins kept me in a growth mindset where I was able to stay consistently motivated and focused on improving my game every day despite the challenges that came up. I’ve seen many teammates over my two years in the OHL lose their confidence and passion for the game when facing challenging circumstances (whether that be lack of ice time, being scratched, poor performance/scoring slumps, conflict with coaches, etc), and I believe without the mental skills and ongoing support from Dr. Cassidy, that definitely could have happened to me too. Most important of all, Dr. Cassidy and the CEP Mindset team truly care about the athletes they work with, and genuinely put in the time and effort to help every athlete not only improve and stay on top of not only their mental game, but also just deal with the challenges of life as an athlete too. CEP Mindset is the best in the business and I highly recommend Dr. Cassidy and his team to any athlete. Less
Thankful for the team at CEP for helping me own all of my capabilities and become the best hockey player I can be.
Working with Nick has been a great experience which has helped me in many aspects of life ultimately leading me to feel better about myself and the things I’m doing while also improving at said things.
My son has been working with Nicholas the past few months and I have notice an improvement in his ability to reset during games and consistently play at a high level. It has been a great experience working with the CEP Mindset team.
It has been very helpful for me regarding my mental game. I have been able to deal with stress at competitions much better and have also learnt ways to reset myself when things are going wrong. This program has helped me get better results since I started it. This is a great choice if someone is looking for help with their mental game.
Great program. Adam with CEP was great to work with. He was flexible with our chaotic schedule and was readily available when we felt updates were needed. Our high school athlete was a completely different player this year. Less focus on mistakes and failures and more on what he can change moving forward. Had a fantastic seasons with both football and basketball.
My son Jacob plays AAA hockey. He has been working with Adam from CEP for over a year now. The growth in his mental resiliency and overall game is undeniable. I highly recommend, we spend so much money on their physical skill development, but the mental development is a huge part of having success. Thanks Adam!
Great work!!
Dr. Cassidy has been unreal the last year working with me! Playing professional sports can be a rollercoaster and he's helped keep my mindset strong through all the ups and downs. Fantastic coaching, product, and mentorship. Would highly recommend for athletes of all levels and experience.
Started my sessions with Cassidy at the start of the year and continued to have my best year of hockey yet. The mental side of sports is just what every athlete needs to get them to the next level. Highly recommend
Brian has been a tremendous help with my 16 year old hockey player. The tools he is learning to use are life skills. Everyone should have a Coach like Brian. Very worthwhile training! Thank you CEP Mindset!

I've been working with Nicholas and the CEP team for many years now, and I couldn't thank them enough for helping me get to where I am today. Before I started, my confidence was extremely inconsistent, and I constantly worried about what my teammates, coaches and scouts were thinking about me. This led to me playing head games more so than hockey. After working one on one with Nicholas, I learned new and helpful mental tools to allow me to trust my abilities, play more consistent, and be able to just play hockey minus all the nonsense noise. I never fully understood the importance of the mental side of hockey until working with Nicholas. Through our biweekly zoom calls, I learned many techniques to improve my mindset such as the reset routine, and self-reflection, and concepts such as playing in a 3/4 mindset and filtering out unwanted noise that have become a staple in my preparation and daily routines. I recommend working with CEP and Nicholas to anyone wanting to get an edge on their competition and maximize their full potential as they helped me get to where I am today! Less

My name is Katie and I swim for the University of Toronto. I made the decision to start working with Cassidy about a year ago which has unequivocally been the best decision I've made regarding my sport. Prior to working with Cassidy, my confidence was low and I was losing my love for swimming. Promptly after we starting working together I learned various ways to change my game and mindset. Within this year of working with Cassidy, I've reached higher levels of performance, gained confidence and clarity, and have been able to completely reinvent my thought process and actions. Cassidy has become a mentor to me and I firmly believe that without his help I would be a completely different person. I strongly encourage any athlete facing difficulty within their sport to work with a CEP coach as I will be forever grateful that I did. Less

Our son is a hockey player and has working with Kyle for over a year. We’ve seen huge mental development in our son since he’s been working with Kyle. Kyle has the skill of rephrasing questions to help lead our son towards an answer. He poses questions in different ways so that our son can understand. Kyle relates to things not just about hockey. He tries to understand what motivates the player and what gets them going. Kyle encourages a lot of self-reflection and accountability. He challenges the player to use other words when answering, probing to get more out of them. Kyle emphasizes that it is not just a one hour game, but that it’s everything leading up to the game. Kyle is very motivating. He turns negatives into positives and learning experiences. He reminds the player not to focus on stats, comparisons, and end results, but focus on the process. Kyle reiterates that the player remember why they play the game. Kyle also reminds the player that when motivation is low, that’s when they turn to discipline, routine, and habits. Our son’s feedback is that Kyle understands what he is saying and is very productive. Our son really likes that Kyle puts his screen share on and shows our son where he is going (short term and long term plans), breaks everything down to bite-sized chunks, and shows our son his progress. Thank you very much for providing the opportunity to give a review. Less

My husband and I were struggling with our son, 12 y/o hockey player and his ability to manage emotions. He is a very talented hockey player that expects perfection from himself. While having a high standard for oneself is great, his ability to handle his emotions when things didn't go right or he didn't perform to perfection began overshadowing his on ice abilities. In brief readings we learned about sports psychology and having a coach. To support our son we decided to formally explore this as an option. My husband found CEP Mindset and got hooked up with Kyle Bergh. While the work is not over, the improvements in attitude and handling adversity have been exciting. His main coach and skills coach both unprompted made comments on how he is managing his emotions better, being OK with a mistake and handling frustration. The opportunity to interact with someone who has been in his skates, isn't his coach and is independent of us as parents allows him to speak freely and learn to open up and more importantly how to implement a repeatable process to handle mental challenges. We are very thankful for the work Kyle has done and would encourage anyone contemplating a mental coach for their child, do it and certainly consider Kyle. Less
Sam Leavens has been amazing to talk to about improving my mental game when it comes to track and field. She has allowed me to remember the core reason why I run in the first place and find ways to make it fun once again!
We have had CEP Mindset come to do workshops with our U13 A hockey team. The talks have been engaging and production. Sam does a great job relating to our players.
I worked with Nicholas Santino for a couple months now and i have improved greatly. i recommend these courses to anyone who needs and i will definitely be telling my family and friends about this course.

We are so proud of him, and so incredibly thankful for finding the CEP Mindset program and his coach/mentor, Max.

I work with Sam Leavens and she is a super kind and enthusiastic person to work with. She understands where I am going wrong and always finds a solution. I’m very happy with cep and sam
I was a little skeptical about having my 11-year-old son working with Kyle/CEP. I was not sure if he would benefit from the program because of his age. I have to say that I was wrong in my thinking, my son has benefited from his sessions with Kyle, he talks more about his game now than ever and his game is way more consistent. Great job Klye, he is looking forward to his next session.
I worked with Kyle Bergh from 2021-2022, after my time working with Kyle I have done a complete 180 with my mindset towards sports, and my outlook on life has completely changed for the better, definitely worth it, 100% would recommend.
Chris is amazing!! After years of performance anxiety, he taught me the importance of mindfulness. I learned to alter my prospective to think tactically and not emotionally when i’m in a competition. He taught me the most important lesson that still sticks to me, learning to trust the process, your training and most importantly, yourself. Thank you Chris!!
Able to decipher and relate to young athletes and their ambitions! Highly recommend!

Biggest areas of improvement has been his mindset in games while using the techniques they've been working on (Accept, Breathe, Control what you can control along with alter ego). He's also been able to apply the principles outside of sports and that really helped him when he transitioned to a new school mid year last year. During my son's report card/teacher meeting last month, he commented how much our son matured in his emotional intelligence which has allowed him to better focus and take responsibility for his success in the classroom. Our son enjoys the challenge that education is bringing and takes pride in his homework, projects, and tests. This was NOT the case before. HUGE WIN for us and big time THANK YOU goes out to Kyle for his help. Less
I have worked with Chris for about a couple months and already my confidence has completely changed. My game and my play drastically went up and I feel like I have a huge edge over players with my mental game, as I know that the higher you play the more important it is to have a strong mental game as the physical skill gap lessens.
I have been working with CEP Mindset and have truly found a change in my hockey game and my mindset during, before, and after my games. Being a stronger mental player is what makes the difference between good players and great players. I love working with CEP Mindset and won't ever stop. I have been working with Chris De Piero and it has truly been a game changer
Incredible coach who really enjoys working with his clients. Coach DePeiro and I have worked together for the past 7 or so months, it has been tremendous. He has helped me through the ups and down, and I’m super excited to continue to work with him!
I worked with coach Kyle, it was a great experience throughout all the sessions and it helped me learn the mental side of the game. Ever since I’ve been doing these sessions I’ve been playing better and also playing more consistently.
I had an amazing experience working with the CEP Mindset program, it helped me make big changes in my mindset and helped me perform better on the ice. Your mindset has a big impact on your performance and is not something that should be looked over.

As a father of an aspiring athlete, I am constantly looking to push developing boundary's in helping my son out. The difference in an athlete making the cut can be a micron of a hair thread... that is what they deal with today. A former pro explained to me that most athletes today train meticulously in skills or strength and mildly forget about the actual drive control center of the body- the mind! On further explanation he described that an elite athlete thinks and focuses on a much different level. How they prepare to how they think their visions thru. Basically, one's mindset is what can set a good player from an elite player. This is where Bryan McLaughlin comes in. He has been working with my son for almost 3 years now and I can tell you that the transformation has been trajectory like! I have seen his daily regiment change. His training, eating and sleeping habits are constant. The way he puts habits into process has been incredible to see. My son is 17 now and his coaches in the last 3 years have all said that he is at a different maturity level. He has managed to live away from home also during this period. Most kids at this age are just figuring themselves out- if they want to push thru with their dreams. JJ, has pushed his mental side to another level... and it is showing in his game. Bad games are put aside but not forgotten. He learns from these instances and knows how to move forward and away from them. I would highly recommend any parent to do your diligence and educate oneself to working with one's mind and seeing how powerful the change can be..... there is no better place to start other than with Bryan McLaughlin.

My name is Daniel Valencia, and I play hockey for the University of Tampa. For the past six months, I have been working with Nicholas Santino to improve my focus and performance on and off the ice. He has taught me how (methods) to improve my mindset, reset routines, block unrelated thoughts, and make my “best performance” something I could control and bring rather than hoping it would occur. I’ve always struggled to focus and find “in the zone.” In addition, outside thoughts constantly distracted me while on the bench, making it very challenging to enjoy the game. All this made me struggle during games, specifically in generating points and scoring. However, it all became more manageable and more enjoyable after developing my reset routine with Nicholas. I never realized the importance of the mental game until I began to focus and apply it. As a result, I first saw the results and benefits of all this at the IIHF World Championship U-20, playing for Mexico with my brothers. Currently, I continue to see the benefits while playing for The University of Tampa and being a runner-up for point leader as a Freshman. I have benefited and enjoyed all of my sessions with Nicholas. Very easy to talk to and ask questions that are not sports related. Very understanding and charismatic. Scheduling and rescheduling sessions are great and very flexible. Less
During the spring I had the pleasure of working with Max Stefanakos via zoom meet to review and restructure my mental game between the pipes. I experienced nothing but professionalism and class as he was dedicated to helping me achieve my true full potential as an athlete. He was fantastic at relating to his clients and made the sessions fun and enjoyable. Great person in a great program
Cassidy and his team are the best in the biz! They have really helped me sharpen my mental game not only as an athlete, but as a person as well.
CEP has helped me a ton the last year and a bit. Having a strong mental game is extremely important as an athlete and CEP has helped me recognize that and start to master it. I have worked with Max Stefanakos since the beginning and he has been awesome. I am always eager to meet with him and improve my mental game each week.

My son is a goalie has been working with Kyle Bergh and Cassidy Preston for a few years and has seen a big benefit from working with them. They are flexible with scheduling and provide effective strategies for mental recovery and a positive mindset. Highly recommend.

Hi, I'm Russell Kwinter and I play for the Ontario Terriers. I thought it would be helpful if I shared my experience working with Coach Cassidy from Consistent Elite Performance. Before I started the CEP High-Performance System, I was having a difficult time physically and mentally before games, especially before I pitched. I always worried about how I would perform and what the people around me would think. Results were the only thing I cared about and I did not focus on the process.I knew a CEP program would be essential to my game, but I was unsure of how it was going to improve it. Once I did my free 30-minute intro session and started a program, I began to see a positive change in my mindset and confidence. Using my personalized reset routine has helped keep me focused in the moment, instead of worrying about the outcome. Before I would pitch in a game, I was getting bad stomach aches and my body was constantly fatigued. Applying the concepts learned during the weekly sessions has allowed these negative feelings to go away. It is great to be able to present questions or concerns to Cassidy throughout these sessions because he will always give a thorough, easy to understand answer. Now that I've consistently implemented the strategies I've learned at CEP, I play the game of baseball with more enjoyment and passion. Since my confidence has been improving, my leadership skills are improving as well. I have gone from being scared to pitch to being exited to. To any athletes either struggling with worrying about the results, bad pre game nerves, or just wanting to perform more consistently at their potential, I encourage you to try out a free session with a CEP coach, as it has been a decision I will never regret.

Learned alot about the mental side of my game from CEP Mindest and found ways to overcome obstacles in ways I never knew before!
I highly recommend working and growing your game with CEP Mindset. I have been lucky enough to work with Cassidy Preston for the past year, and I can say that my game has reached another level.

My name is Mckenna Burt and I am a varsity women’s soccer player at the University of Guelph.

Over the past few months Nicholas has taught me many skills that have improved my mindset on the ice and he has allowed me to become the best player I can be. Not only have these skills helped me improve my game on the ice, but they have also translated to off ice, like school and everyday situations. Working with Nicholas has improved many mental aspects to my game that allow me to boost my physical skill’s as well. After working with Nicholas for a few months I have really started to learn the importance of a reset routine and how it truly can change the way you play. Translating a reset routine into my game has allowed me to overcome doubts and thoughts affecting my game that would of been stuck in my head throughout the whole game a few months ago that would of brought down my game quite a bit. Nicholas has also taught me the importance of imagery and how it can help improve my mental preparation for before and during games to allow me to get the best out my game. Aswell as the importance of breathing. For me this was super important because when I feel to tense during a hockey game I end up over handling pucks, over skating pucks, passing to far ahead of a teammate etc. Learning the importance of breathing allowed me to find the perfect balance so that I can always be at my very best. I know many players can relate to that. I highly recommend Nicholas as he has brought my game play to another level and I cannot thank him enough for it Less

I’ve been able to statistically increase my ppg and ice time on a big scale after staring with CEP. I highly recommend working with Kyle as he has been nothing but helpful for me. He’s helped me explore new strategies and skills to continuously improve my mental game and can relate to many of the scenarios that I face on the ice and in my day to day life. For anyone looking to improve or work on their mental performance, I highly recommend Kyle or anyone else in the CEP team. Less

Hi, I'm Alexandr Sutchin and I play for the U18 Toronto Titans. I thought it would be helpful if I shared my experience working with coach Adam Carter from Consistent Elite Performance. Before I started the CEP High-Performance System, I struggled with my confidence, controlling my emotions, overthinking and thinking about stats. I wanted to learn how to improve and maintain my confidence without leaning on stats. I also wanted to learn how I could control my thinking and thoughts before, during and after games in order to not overthink and stay focused. When I first came across CEP, I knew that this program could help me with my mental game. I knew this program was what I needed, but I wasn't sure if it would work for me and how improving my mental game would look like. Once I did my free 30-minute intro session and started a program, I was surprised how this program was able to improve my mental game. I had a very helpful and knowledgeable coach who created a safe environment to talk and analyse my personal thoughts and feelings. I learned a lot of helpful strategies such as the Reset Routine, that allowed me to shift my mindsets during games and deal with the ups and downs of hockey in order to achieve my mental goals. The strategies I learned also helped me in real life situations out of hockey as well. And now that I've consistently implemented the strategies I've learned at CEP, I had a lot more fun on the ice, I was a lot more consistent in my play, and my game started improving quickly. So, to any athletes either struggling with any mental blocks, or just want to perform more consistently at their potential, I encourage you to try this program and see the results for yourself. Less

Hi, my name's Matt Server, and I play for Ohio University in ACHA D1. I want to share my experience working with coach Santino from Consistent Elite Performance. Before starting the CEP High-Performance System, I struggled with starting games well and worried about what my coaches and teammates thought about my play. I was also worried about my stats and making it to the next level rather than focusing on the process. When I came across CEP for the first time, I knew the coaches would help me improve my mental game, but I didn't know what training my mental skills would be like. I knew CEP would help me, but I kept thinking that I didn't need help. Once I completed my free 30-minute intro session and started a program, I quickly noticed an improvement in my mental game and performance. The reset routine and pre-game routine my coach and I created helped me stay present in the moment stopped me from worrying about my stats and factors that were out of my control. Having bi-weekly one-on-one session with coach Santino helped me a lot, because we were able to come up with a plan and a system that worked best for me and could talk about things that I was personally struggling with. Now that I've implemented the strategies that I've learned at CEP, I'm more consistent in games and I'm no longer nervous or anxious just before games. My self-esteem and confidence has improved dramatically and feel like nothing can stop me. To any athletes struggling with their confidence, are worrying about their stats too much, or are just looking to improve their mental game, I encourage you to book a free intro session with one of the CEP coaches.

Incredible experience. 10/10. I wouldn't hesitate recommending this program to a friend. I have improved tremendously since joining the program. No more overthinking, no more fear of failure, and I have become very consistent. I look forward to my meeting every time, it feels almost like talking to a friend rather than a Coach.
My experience with Cassidy was first-rate. He is a true professional, he helps create actionable solutions to make you a better Athlete and person.
In the 3 months that I have been working with CEP, I have noticed huge improvements in my mental toughness and ability to deal with distractions. In the past, I would often let one negative thought affect my play, thus making hockey more of a stressor than a passion. I have recently seen my love for hockey and competitive drive increase, thanks to the CEP team.
This is an amazing organization. It helps develop many student-athletes and athletes within their sport, and throughout all areas of their life. It is the best bang for your buck.

Consistent elite performance has helped my mental game tremendously throughout this season. Before I had troubles regulating my emotions and energy levels with playing but was taught effective strategies to solve these problems. I plan to continue working with Cassidy in the future!
I have loved my time being apart of this program so far, it has helped me in many ways both on and off the ice. I saw my performance skyrocket as I began playing with more confidence and poise. Can't stress how much this program has helped me.
The CEP Program is amazing. Very professional and a great value! The program has been so valuable in guiding our son with high performance training and mindset! We look forward to continuing with Consistent Elite Performance programs!
Nicholas works with two of our children who are playing Junior A boys and Midget AA girls’ hockey respectively.

My oldest son golfs competitively which has a tremendous amount of mental and personal pressure and my youngest son plays AAA hockey as a goalie which also has it's own heightened pressures and challenges.

Nick Santino started working with both my sons over a year ago. My oldest son golfs competitively which has a tremendous amount of mental and personal pressure and my youngest son plays AAA hockey as a goalie which also has it's own heightened pressures and challenges. Both boys were struggling with their own internal issues, were being very hard on themselves, had the skill but wanted to take their games to the next level. Nick worked through a personalized program with each of them. He related to them on an individual basis and understood the intricacies of each sport. His passion shone through when he showed up to watch hockey games unannounced or organized a round of golf during a time where he had his own personal heavy workload. His feedback was paramount and he quickly became a sounding board and ally to both boys. Both their games have gone to the next level and we credit Nick for the progress they made this year. We have recommended Nick and Consistent Elite Performance to many parents who have seen the improvements. We now know what a key part of sports, the mental game truly is. Thanks again to Nick and the team at CEP. Less
My son entered the program a year ago as he made the leap to AAA hockey. The skills he is learning with Cassidy have bled into all areas of his life and are allowing him to grow his leadership skills and build his own discipline from within, as well as create positive self talk and good analysis of his play. The group calls have also been a lifesaver during COVID and have benefitted him even mor... More

I have been working with Nick for a while now and he has improved my mental game dramatically. He has taught me how to re-set and ignore distractions in big moments. He's a really nice guy and easy to talk too, he has helped me a lot.
My sons have been working with Nic this year and they both have benefitted greatly! It has helped them boost confidence and stay focused in the moment both in athletic situations and at school. Highly Recommend!!!!
My son Peter joined Dr.Cassidy's mastermind program since Feb this year which helps him to be more positive, confident and energetic.

Cassidy has been working with my son for more than a year and I have seen a tremendous improvement in my sons ability to deal with the highs and lows of the game, both on and off the ice. He's taught my son the importance of visualization, being mentally stronger and he's provided a real accountability for my son, all excellent life lessons that will help him whether it's hockey related or not.

Cassidy has been working with my son for more than a year and I have seen a tremendous improvement in my sons ability to deal with the highs and lows of the game, both on and off the ice. He's taught my son the importance of visualization, being mentally stronger and he's provided a real accountability for my son, all excellent life lessons that will help him whether it's hockey related or not. Cassidy has a great overall approach and provides excellent insight of all the things needed to be successful in the game that also apply to outside of hockey. Less
The CEP program has been a great experience. After 6 months my confidence has gone up incredibly . I have learnt a lot of valuable things from 1 on 1 talks and groups sessions. Learning more about my mental game has lead to key success towards my play on the ice and I think it would work for anyone. I would recommend.
Since I started the program I have greatly evolved as an athlete. Everything within the program has a purpose and the coaches are always there for you and want you to achieve success on and off the field.
