“Lots of great material in here for more than just skaters. 90% of it you can substitute “swimmer” or “runner” or anything, for that matter, for the word “skater.” I have highlighted lots I will incorporate into our swimming training.”

Steven J. Kuster, Head Swimming Coach
Williams College

“Your book is easy to use as a handbook/manual for coaches doing mental training. You shouldn't limit yourself to just skaters. This stuff works.

I thought doing mental training with a group of 14 year old basketball players would be an impossible task. Not only did they listen, they loved using the techniques. Most recently the team scored 90 points against a team that they had previously lost to by 30 points. Now as soon as the guys see me, they want to tell me of new areas in which this way of thinking works. The last example was on a biology test!"

Stina Winegarner, PhD
psychologist, Mariefred, Sweden

“As a soccer coach, I found Skating Out Of Your Mind a great resource in integrating mental training techniques into the daily routine of our team. It provides many skill building tools that lead to consistent peak performances, no matter what the pressures.”

Kevin McCarthy, Columbia University

“An amazing book I think should be available to all people – skaters or not. It’s an important work for human advancement and spiritual progress.”
