Free Healing-Centered 101 Coach Training

Join us for two free, virtual trainings on healing-centered coaching.

Every coach wants what’s best for their athletes. But in a system that emphasizes overall performance and wins, many coaches feel stuck using outdated methods that don’t match what we now know about how young brains actually work.

Our free healing-centered 101 coach training gives you the tools to create environments where athletes don’t just perform better – they heal, grow, and thrive as whole human beings. Why does this matter? Based on research from Dr. Bruce Perry and the Neurosequential Network, these evidence-based strategies work because they align with how young brains actually develop. When athletes feel safe, seen, and supported, they perform at their best.

Brain-Based Coaching Strategies You’ll Learn More About:

  • Calm, Connect, Coach: The neuroscience-backed approach that helps athletes access their “smart brain” when it matters most
  • Movement as Medicine: Why patterned, repetitive, rhythmic activities are the secret sauce for team regulation
  • Relationships as Performance Enhancers: How trust literally rewires young brains for success
  • Manageable Stress Techniques: Create the “just right” challenge that builds resilience instead of overwhelm

This free training is perfect for:

  • Youth sports coaches at all levels
  • High school and college coaching staff
  • Athletic directors and program administrators
  • Parent coaches looking for better tools
  • Anyone who believes sport can be a force for healing
