Feel free to contact us anytime.

You use sports to teach leadership

The Life Performance Institute is an educational organization dedicated to providing leadership training to young people.  By using the people who influence them as the teachers and youth sports as the setting, we teach valuable skills of self-confidence, character and perseverance.

Our mission is to provide leadership tools, lessons and skills to teachers, coaches, mentors and parents.  We combine leadership and sports to teach the valuable skills of self-confidence, character and perseverance.

Kids gain confidence and learn persistence

Through our programs and seminars, children learn the attitude, skills and knowledge it takes to gain higher self-esteem, quickly develop confidence and persistence.

Youth learn new leadership principles, the importance of having a vision and strategies critical to besting the competition.

Simple, highly effective and easy to teach

We have developed a simple, highly effective and easy to teach program. Students receive a new, easy to understand and refreshing approach to leadership. We de-mystify leadership and present you with a simple format that is ready to be taught at your next practice.

Students receive instant benefit from the useful, quick and easy to digest, bite size chunks of information.  Our difference is leadership that is easy to read, teach and internalize.

You begin with self-awareness and self-leadership

All learning programs share a major concept and a developmental model based on self-awareness and self-leadership.  Each program or seminar relies on the foundation and the major philosophical themes of competing, hard work and persistence.

• The “Half Step” concept:  Staying ahead of your competition.
• The “Warrior’s Mentality”: A combination of mental and spiritual strength.

Leadership is Fully Transferable from Sports to Life

The leadership strategies students will learn are powerful, practical and apply universally.  These are not “flavor of the day” principles. They are age-old concepts that have been proven effective time after time.

The fundamental value of these universal messages is deceptive and can be easily overlooked.  These proven principles are equally effective in all aspects of life.  From the skate park to the golf course, from the math class to the football field or any place in between, the basis of our teachings is timeless.

Each lesson builds on the other

We have used a building block approach in the lessons.  The key blocks are designed to provide students with a practical framework of leadership, the foundation for further learning and maximize their behavior when acting in a leadership capacity.

Each lesson is designed to be a small part of a larger picture, and to provide its own special learning component.  Each lesson builds on the other and a synergistic model of practical and useful leadership principles and strategies evolves.

Each of the lessons can also stand-alone.  Overlap of content from lesson to lesson may occur, but will reinforce the objectives learned in different applications.

• Each program is customizable to meet the needs of particular groups or individuals.
• Confidential consultations help you tailor our programs to your personal needs.
