My Project

Our softball team has been through some challenges on and off the field but Peak Performance Coach Ethan Miller has provided support for our team to help us regroup and refocus mentally. Because of our work and our time with him over the past several years, our team is so strong mentally and can overcome any obstacles that come their way.

Ethan's online training program helps our team not only grow into great softball players but also into amazing individuals as well.

Ethan's program has allowed our team to get past tragedies and has helped us cope with the pandemic. Having Ethan guide us through his conditioning program (with mental and physical challenges), we will be able to compete on the field and have a competitive edge. Ethan is a valuable and essential resource to help us get refocused and learn many of the mental tools to help us cope with softball and with life. Ethan will do Zoom calls with our team and is available through phone and text if we need additional training during the season.
