MVP Program:
Meditation and Visualization for Elite Basketball Performance
The Only Basketball Program Teaching and Providing World Class Meditation and Visualization.
Guiding Players, Coaches, and Teams to their Full Potential
The greats do it. Do you?
George Mumford is the actual Zen Master behind Phil Jackson’s dynastic Bulls teams - he brought meditation to Chicago and put them in the Zone.
Alex Honnold, renowned rock climber, speaks often on how visualizes the intricate details before his life-or-death free solo attempts.
Professional athletes and Olympians across a variety of sports use meditation and visualization as key parts of their training regimen, developing mental toughness, laser-sharp focus and high-level decision making.
Skill and talent fall behind if your training doesn’t cover all aspects of what it takes to be elite. Both the physical and the mental need training…
With MVP you can grow into your next-level and gain the competitive edge you need to succeed.

“It’s from the shoulders on up”…
MVP provides the structure and teaching to develop the mental component of the game.
Mental toughness: every coach wants it and every player needs it.
Player stress, focus, decision-making, and performance anxiety are hard to manage, both as a player and as a coach. Yet every hooper experiences it one way or another.
Have any of your players shown these signs below?
Shooting slumps and carelessness with the ball.
Mental fatigue and poor decision making.
Players slow getting back to their mental and physical form after an injury.
A lack of care and attention to detail in critical moments of the game.
Athletes transitioning to a higher level of competition and struggling to adjust.
All of these problems point to the fact that the mental component hasn’t been well-trained.
And as a coach, I know the difference is in the details.
With MVP, you can drill the hard skills like shooting and ballhandling and the soft skills such as trust, confidence, and belief.
Handle pressure with poise
Break out of shooting slumps
Players identify opponent tendencies and adjust
Organize then dissect defenses with crisp execution and smart reads
Close big games with focused team defense
See the team trust each other in big moments from the top players on down
Role players are confident and rise to the occasion
Execution, calm, and mental toughness in close games and playoff settings
These are the moments that practice and film fail to recreate, and yet they are the moments you want to drill the most. These two skills, meditation and visualization, open up every possibility.
What you need is the MVP Program.
The MVP Lab is the hoopers go-to source for making their mental game elite. You'll experience game-like scenarios that can't be recreated in practice, like the clutch game or championship night, all paired with easy to learn meditation sequences. The MVP Lab will prime you for high-level competition any time of year, unlock exceptional skill and decision making, and keep you calm and confident no matter what comes your way.
Prepare like a pro and get in the lab.

FAQs
How much time will I need each day?
Most practices take 20-25 minutes, though you can spend more time when you choose.
Do I need any special equipment?
All you need is a yoga mat, headphones, and a quiet space.
I’ve never done meditation or visualization before. Can I still do this?
Of course. Within the MVP Lab are beginner and intermediate meditations. Like any skill, it will take time to develop. Visualization though is a little different; some people can’t visually imagine scenes in their head. In that case, which is rare, MVP will support you greatly with meditation, but visualization will not be of help.
I’m not flexible or fit. Can I still do this?
Absolutely. The movement practices are accessible for all bodies and all levels, and you can modify them to meet your needs.
Will the yoga help with pain?
Many athletes experience relief from back pain, hip tension, and other exercise-related tightness. While it’s not a substitute for physical therapy or care, it works beautifully alongside it.
Is there an app? Do I have to use a desktop computer?
When you sign up for the MVP Lab, you’ll create a username and password to login to our member site. You’ll be able to use your desktop or mobile device to access the MVP Lab from our website. No app, no problem, just reliable internet access to use the MVP Lab.
