B R A V E
Welcome to your mental fitness skills training in preparation for the 2021 Futures Summit. You train your body to improve. You prepare your skills for competition. You review film and go to practice to get it all in your brain and your bones.
This year, you level up.
In 2021, the game is different. It's time to train your mind to be ready for your game to improve. You will show up ready to work beyond the thresholds of your fear. You will get your hope in shape, and get more reps on your curiosity, all so that you can take advantage of the opportunities outside of your comfort zone.
Because that is where you are headed.
Some people call it resilience. Some people call it grit. Some people call it emotional stamina. Some people call it character strengthening. Some people call it 21st century skills. Some people call it confidence.
We call it bravery.
All-Terrain Skills
We will be offering 8 practice sessions for you to adequately prepare to level up your game. These sessions will be 30 minutes of rigorous and fast-paced self-reflection, self-expression, self-activation. They are designed to help you gain insight, focus your mindset, and take action.
Each session will introduce a new framework and reinforce overarching concepts of bravery training. Being ready to play is not the same as being ready to brave. It's time to put both pieces together.
"If I'd have had access to the Brave programming throughout my younger years, I would have been forced to become comfortable with stepping outside my comfort zone a little more and also face the little voices in my head head-on that suppressed my confidence. We all need a little boost of confidence and reminders that we can conquer any obstacle that comes our way, and Brave helps us do exactly that while we strive to become the best lacrosse players and women we can be."
