Sport

Mankato West Girls Cross Country Team"In today's world with all of the pressures that are placed on our young people it is tough for our high school student athletes to maintain a clear and positive focus towards a peak performance. The staff at the Center do a phenomenal job working with student athletes to achieve peak performance in sports and in life. They have worked with our students as individuals, as teams, and with our building leadership group. They have provided building blocks in self confidence, positive imagery, and positive team building. These skills have helped our students within their various activities while at the same time giving them skills that will help them with athletic and academic challenges each and every day."

"TherAnn Fee - The Fryee is one phrase I will never forget from my work with the staff at the Center, "focus on the mile you're in." This is important not only in running but in all aspects of life. One thing the staff at the Center taught me is to not get ahead of myself. Each day of training and racing are important. Take them for what they are and then look forward to getting better the next day. Your mind is a powerful tool and is capable of getting you to that next level. Trust your positive thoughts and observe the negative ones but do not let them determine the results."

"There is nAnn Fee - The Fryeo question that our work with Cindra Kamphoff this season has had a huge impact on our team’s success. Working with Cindra has been great and has definitely helped our team. She has helped us keep our focus on what’s right in front of us and we just try to go 1-0 each week. We have learned about trusting each other and it has helped us to deal with the different challenges we face from game to game."

Ann Fee - The Frye"It has been a wonderful partnership for us. The timing couldn’t have been better and the feedback from the coaches and student-athletes has been very encouraging. Our other teams are lining up to work with the Center and it’s only a matter of time before others follow suit. It’s been a great experience for us."

Performance

Ann Fee - The Frye"The staff at the Center showed me how a singer can use athletes' tools to reach new levels of power and flow. A few months after we worked together, I had the biggest gig of my life, opening for a national act. Very different from singing in a small local club. I used all my new tools, and it was a killer performance and the best high I've ever felt. Now I'm ready for more."

“These sessionsAnn Fee - The Frye were so powerful for me! I have been to a lot of counseling over the years, and none of them reached me like that. This is so powerful and has such potential. Thank you, thank you."
