Immersive Program for Ages 8-17

An full day of learning, culminating in a weekend tournament. Space is limited so be sure to register early!

Day 1: Socialization, Intro to Mental Powers!

Why is mental toughness important to being a great gamer? How can engaging in mental skills training help one become a high performer not just in video games, but in life in general? Day one will introduce mental skills, how to adopt a growth mindset and know that everyone has the capacity to be great. It will also give an overview of the “The 4 C’s of Mental Toughness” – an evidence-based approach to teaching performance enhancement techniques. Subsequent days will focus on one of the 5 C’s.

Day 2: Commitment, Goal Setting, Focus and Concentration, Team Creed

What does it mean to truly commit to something? It means sticking with it when things get tough. It means doing things that are difficult in order to make peak performance easier. True commitment means working on improving your focus so that you can consistently and reliably perform at your best. Commitment involves setting goals, and being able to bounce back even when you fall short.

Day 3: Circle of control, framing, emotion wheel, breathing and mindfulness

In everyday life there isn’t as much in people’s control as we usually think. Most get so caught up in what they can’t control that they lose sight of what they can. Letting go of things out of our influence frees up our attention so that we can zone in on what matters – performing. This day teaches about how to work on emotional regulation – how to stay calm under pressure, not get sad and angry when things don’t go your way, and how to keep a positive mindset.

Day 4: Overcoming Challenges, "The Wall", Highlight Reel

Do you run away from or towards challenges? The only way to truly be great at anything is to get uncomfortable. Many that shy away from challenge feel that they do not have the tools to confront it. Luckily, we’ve been working all week to add to the toolbox that will allow one to run towards challenges.We’ll spend this day showing how challenges are opportunities and should be embraced. Even failure is an opportunity and a natural part of life.

Day 5: Live Tournament

Our Program Culminates in an Incredible Experience!

Participants apply the problem solving, strategy, hand-eye coordination, attention, visual processing and other skills they developed during the week, in a competitive environment. For many, this will be the first time they’ve experienced what a live, in-person gaming tournament feels like.

Tournament Features & Benefits

Having run tournaments at our esports center since 2012, we know how to handle everything from pre-registration and private, invite only game lobby configuration to in-game observation and moderation.

Level up your game with a weekend program designed to be educative, informational, and fun!

Day 1: State vs. Trait Confidence, Motivation Continuum, The Power of Affirmations

Many people are able to perform in a vacuum. In low-stakes situations, practicing the specific skills of a game like aiming, spacing, and combos can be enough to get you through. But once placed into pressure situations, confidence has been shown to be one of the main factors that separate elite performers from the rest. This workshop goes over types and sources of confidence so that gamers can build awareness of where their confidence comes from. From there, we’ll go over ways to build their confidence up!
