"After my first session with Carolyn, I knew she was the real deal. She understood which specific combinations of weights to lift, how to lift them, ratios of rest to work, and gave good explanation of why we were doing different routines. The more I worked with her the more I realized how the way I was training before was not allowing me to progress. I went to my first national tournament since training with her.

Carolyn helped me work through the psychological aspects of sport - this was something I had never considered as benefitting my performance. We covered setting goals, thinking positively and internal dialogue. I met with her while preparing for the junior Olympics, and when my time came to perform, I wasn't nervous at all. I believed in the skills I had and in the training I had done with Carolyn. She so often says "Success is when preparation meets opportunity.' I utilized what I had learned from Carolyn to walk the psychological line that gave me the victory against someone of similar top level skill. Without Carolyn's help I never would have gone as far as I did."
