Re-Introducing Myself : Proud Pole Vault coach at multiple schools in the Pasadena | La Cañada area.
Dedicated to teaching “The Professor’s Sport,” as Pole Vault is known as.
Building my club Top Tier Pole Vault into an ethical, dependable resource for athletes to learn and improve their skill.
My Pole Vault Training curriculum is embedded with principles of Neuroscience, such as neuroplasticity and executive function regulation, in order to create a whole-body approach to each athlete’s growth and development.
My pedagogy, the way I teach my curriculum, is rooted in principles of mental health and Education frameworks; such as, creating safe spaces for expressing one’s self as well as creating dynamic learning environments for optimal skill acquisition.
I was originally hired by Westridge to build a Pole Vault program for their school. Since then, I have come to realize that Pole Vault coaching is in short supply in the San Gabriel Valley and beyond. There aren’t enough Pv coaches to staff the number of schools wanting to have a program.
It’s my mission, by establishing the Top Tier Pole Vault Club, to teach and train as many Pole Vaulters as I possibly can. I want to add my contribution to the history of this noble sport.
I want to teach athletes about Neuroscience and Mental Health and how they can improve their overall academic and sports performance by learning these things. I want to train athletes who eventually become college vaulters and after that pole vault coaches.
By training future coaches, we ensure that future pole vaulters will in turn be trained, keeping Pole Vault alive and well.
