Note From Nikki
To My Athletes,
I know exactly what it feels like to be in your shoes. As an elite youth athlete, a college athlete, and a professional athlete, I know the grind, the sweat, the dedication. I know what it feels like to put in the work and to WIN!
I also know what it feels like to feel stronger, faster, and more prepared than ever, only to freeze on game day. To tighten up. To second-guess yourself. To feel like you “choked” and walk away questioning, What just happened?
I know what it’s like to want your mind and body to work together; to be mentally as strong as you are physically. To crave strength and speed and to feel good physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually in your sport.
That’s why I’m here. To support you, challenge you, and help you break through whatever is holding you back. We’ll put in the work together, dig deep, share, motivate, and push past limits. I’m your coach, your training partner, your confidant, your guide. And I will do my best to get you to the finish line feeling confident, strong, powerful, and agile.
Sometimes, it’s deeper than push-ups and squats. It’s about mental clarity. It’s about locking in and becoming your best self to thrive in sport, leadership, and life.
I got you. Now let’s get to work. Let’s go!
