  • "Working with Dan was not only extremely eye opening and applicable to all of my work, training and performance, but it was also genuinely enjoyable every session. Dan has helped me refind my competitive edge and be a more effective coach."

  • "Dan is a natural communicator and effortless connector. He knows how to ease young players and people into comfort and allows space for thinking and reflection. He is a great listener and offers clearly structured sessions but also allows sessions to flow in their own unique and useful directions by being player led. I would highly recommend Dan as a top sports psychologist for young people."
