Friends & Fam!!! 😍
I am SOOO excited to finally share something I’ve been creating, working on and dreaming about for a long time now!!
Introducing…
EMPOWER Athlete Wellness Academy™
As a yoga and wellness teacher and as a mom raising a young athlete, I’ve seen firsthand how much we ask of our kids in sport. Its ALOT.
Sports bring a BUSY lifestyle.
In sports we work to train their bodies.
We develop their skills.
We work on speed, strength and performance.
But what about the person underneath the jersey?
What about confidence? Focus? Pressure? Resilience? Breath? Recovery? Emotional regulation?
Learning how to calm their nervous system when the game gets big, the pressure gets heavy or things don’t go their way?
THIS is the WHY of why I created EMPOWER.
This September, I’ll be launching the first of many offerings that will manifest from The Empower Academy-“EMPOWER Wellness Series for Young Athletes” a program designed to help all young athletes from every and any type of sport-build strength and mobility while also developing mindfulness, breathwork, focus, confidence, resilience and tools they can carry into their sport and their life.
My heart believes in this SO much and I cannot WAIT to bring a lifetime of skills, knowledge, trainings, wisdom and experience to these young athletes so they can perform and live to the best of their abilities and potential.
This Academy brings my love of ALL THE THINGS together-Our children’s wellbeing (raising good, humans) athleticism, & holistic wellbeing come together to create: EMPOWER -which stands for:
E Empowerment
M Mindfulness
P Performance
O Ownership
W Wellbeing
E Endurance
R Respect
Whether their arena is the field, gym, ice, court, track or anywhere else they compete, my hope is to create a space where young athletes learn that taking care of their mind and nervous system is JUST AS IMPORTANT as training their body.
Because we’re not just developing better athletes.
We’re developing strong, grounded, resilient HUMANS. Our FUTURE.
I would truly love the support of my friends and community as I bring this Academy and its programs/offerings to life.
Please follow and share my new EMPOWER Athlete Wellness Academy™ page and if you know a young athlete, parent, coach or team who could benefit from this, please send it their way. This series is just the beginning. I plan to have Empower in every sports organization and team in the county one day because I believe in it THAT MUCH!! Empower programs will have series at the Loft and will also be mobile & travel to your rink, pad, gym etc.
The first EMPOWER Series begins this September, and I cannot wait to share more.
I wholeheartedly believe that this is what Im meant to do, teach and bring to this community. My passions all came together for this new venture and I have worked extremely hard to land myself here-and it’s finally the right time to let it birth and grow into something I know is so desperately needed!

EMPOWER•Fall Athlete Wellness Series•
Your athlete trains their body.
But who is teaching them how to manage the pressure that comes with being an athlete?
This September, I’m incredibly excited to introduce my newest offering:
EMPOWER -Fall Athlete Wellness Series -a 6 week wellness series created specifically for young athletes.
Young athletes are being asked to perform at higher levels, manage expectations, navigate wins and losses, stay focused, remain confident and continually push their bodies, often without ever being taught the tools to manage everything happening inside of them.
The EMPOWER Academy was created to change that.
Over six weeks, athletes will learn practical tools to support both performance and wellbeing, including:
•Mobility, strength & stability
•Injury prevention & body awareness
•Breathwork for performance and recovery
•Focus & concentration
•Confidence & positive self-talk
•Managing nerves and performance pressure
•Nervous-system regulation•
Recovery & rest
•Resilience after mistakes, losses and setbacks
•Visualization & mental preparation
•Mindfulness & emotional regulation
This is all about becoming a more resilient athlete from the inside out.
Because the strongest athletes aren't simply strong bodies.
They know how to breathe under pressure.
✔️How to reset after a mistake.
✔️How to trust themselves.
✔️How to recover.
✔️How to focus.
And how to keep their love for the game while navigating everything that comes with it.
Empower Academy Athletes will practice and learn under these embodied themes:
E Empowerment
M Mindfulness
P Performance
O Ownership
W Wellbeing
E Endurance
R Respect
