Why We Exist

"EMI is the cultivation of many years which I spent trying to understand what led to the best outcomes in athletic development. What I observed was that those who were most centered and connected to their desire for growth were most happy and fulfilled. This led to programming growth conversations with players and the team. Through EMI, we can expand this impact into a larger community by partnering with each team to help guide them on their journey. I believe this can be a game changer as we begin to incorporate growth focused programming into every aspect of what we do."
