“Shannon’s mental performance sessions have been a pivotal part of NAU cross-country’s success over the years. She brings sincerity and wisdom with a modern touch to the field of mental performance.”
~ Mike Smith, Nike Swoosh Track Club
Private team offerings are available in 3 different formats:
- Weekly 30 – 45 min online focus session series’
- Single session workshops
- Mental Training Intensives – 6 – 8 60-75 min sessions series scheduled at intervals that suit the team.
Weekly Focus Sessions
Private weekly focus sessions are scheduled to fit teams’ schedules and are typically zoomed into classrooms. The specific curriculum for each team is chosen by the coach from the list of sessions available in our full focus session curriculum.
Focus sessions are ideal for groups who prefer short sessions delivered consistently. This is the format which Shannon presents to NAU every week.
We offer 10, 12, 14, 16 and 32 week series. Each session can be a 30 minute lesson presented by Shannon alone. Or, the sessions can include an elite athlete assistant coach and a post-session Q & A for additional cost. The rates for each option are listed below:

Single Session Workshops (60-90 mins)
Single session workshops are a great fit for cross-country camps and pre-season sessions. These workshops are also partially customizable and can include any of the topics from the list of sessions available. I also offer single session workshops which combine a few of the sessions. Typical examples include:
The Foundations of Mental Performance (Who do you want to be? How do you want to see? What are you going to do?)
Weather Basics: This session helps athletes understand and work with the mental and emotional “weather” that challenges their ability to perform at their best.
The Hero’s Journey: This is a deep dive into the “myth” of linear progress, and equips athletes with a framework and tools to expect and embrace a less linear reality.
I am happy to create a custom workshop for your team.
Cost: $300/ 60 min session; $425/ 90 min session
If you would like an elite athlete to join the session the cost is $100 for a 60 min session and $150 for a 90 min session.
Mental Training Intensive (MTI)
The MTI is typically delivered in 6 x 60-75 min sessions. Frequency, duration and content can be customized for each team. Coaches are welcome to choose the content from our list of sessions available.
MTIs are best suited to groups who prefer more content delivered at once and whose schedules do not allow for weekly sessions.
These sessions are normally streamed in via zoom to a classroom. Coaches/ hosts are welcome to have as many athletes in attendance as you like.
I normally invite 1-2 NAU or pro athletes to be my assistant coaches for each of these sessions. Past assistant coaches have included Nico Young, Drew Bosley, Abdihamid Nur, and more. I can’t stress enough how much the athletes add to the sessions. They are MUCH better with them than with me alone. If you would like to know a rate without the athlete assistant coaches just let me know. Here are my rates for the MTI:
6 x sessions with one assistance coach/ session – $2795
