Teen athletic performance Day camp

August 7th, 8th, 21st, 22nd, 28th, 29th 11-5pm

At Teen Elite Athletic Performance Camps we offer an exclusive opportunity for growth and transformation. With a limit of just four teens per camp, we prioritize a personalized approach that fosters deep connections and meaningful mentorship.

So many young people today are experiencing depression, anxiety, bullying, and a lack of care, purpose, and guidance, and as a parent who has raised a teenager, I understand firsthand the challenges and complexities of those formative years. That's why I'm passionate about providing teens with the guidance and support they need to navigate this critical stage of life. I believe that every teen deserves a mentor, someone who can inspire, educate, and empower them to reach their full potential.

Our innovative concept is designed for teenage boys and girls aged 13-18 who are ready to take their athletic performance and personal development to the next level. Drawing on over a decade of experience in neuroscience and performance psychology, I've curated a comprehensive program that combines ancient wisdom with modern science to help teens thrive both on and off the field.

Our approach goes beyond traditional athletic training. We focus on elite performance principles such as stress management, emotional regulation, and cognitive enhancement. By incorporating techniques like mindfulness, meditation, visualization, breathwork, and cold immersion, we provide teens with a unique advantage that is often overlooked in traditional athletic programs and educational settings.

One critical aspect that sets our camps apart is our emphasis on teaching well-being—something not taught in schools. We focus on helping teens become happy, fulfilled, and balanced individuals. This includes building confidence, kindness, love, and health. Positive well-being enhances learning, creativity, broader attention, and holistic thinking, while reducing negative thinking and increasing positive thinking. With depression at an all-time high among young people, our program aims to provide the support and tools necessary to combat these challenges and promote a positive outlook on life.

In addition to our performance-focused activities, we ensure that fun is at the heart of every camp experience. Your teens will have the option of choosing from five different water disciplines off our Regal Wake surfing boat, adding excitement and enjoyment to their journey of growth and learning.

Our camps, limited to just four participants, ensure a personalized and immersive experience for each teen. From elite performance principles to mindfulness-based strategies, we equip teens with the tools they need to excel in sports and in life. Through a combination of physical training, mental resilience-building, and ethical education, we empower teens to become not just elite athletes, but compassionate, responsible individuals who make a positive impact in the world.

Sign up your son or daughter today, as we're redefining what it means to mentor, inspire, and empower the next generation of young athletes. Together, let's navigate the challenges of adolescence and unlock your teen's full potential.

Includes healthy lunch and drinks.

Proceeds go to my families fundraiser.
