Our approach is customized to fit your needs through an individually designed, flexible program that begins with an extensive and broad-ranging conversational assessment of where you are at this moment and where you hope to go in the future. There is no prescribed "course of study."

We will help you rediscover the community values that attracted you to your profession in the first place, and in doing so. finding a pathway forward that will broaden and deepen your knowledge and abilities.
Testimonials
Sarah Brink, Trinity College
Assistant Coach of Women's Soccer
There are few people I know in this world with the ability to listen as intently, care as deeply, and provide honest feedback as respectfully as Michelyne. Having known her for over 15 years, I have learned so much by observing the countless ways she is able to get the best out of people and teams. No matter the physical distance between us, she is still the person I call when I am stuck, struggling, or need a different perspective on an issue. I am a better person, friend, and coach because of Michelyne, and I frequently think about how grateful I am to have her in my life.
Sayra Trejo, The Thacher School
Spanish Teacher/Volleyball Coach
Working with Michelyne has been an amazing experience. Her vast knowledge and experience of the inner workings of sports coaching, coupled with her patience and understanding of the coach-player relationship make every coaching session insightful and impactful. Michelyne has helped me understand the “why” behind my coaching decisions and has helped me embody the traits of a successful coach. Before working with Michelyne, I knew that coaching volleyball was something I enjoyed doing, but working together to outline my values and coaching philosophy is helping me see myself as a transformational coach and has helped me become more passionate about my craft. I felt seen and heard through her coaching and I am grateful for the opportunity to work with her. I know that my players and volleyball program will benefit from what I have learned from Michelyne.
