About the Summit: The 2024 Lake Tahoe Performance Summit will present a leading, evidence-informed approach for sport performance enhancement. A mindfulness-based mental training program for athletes and coaches, mindful sport performance enhancement (MSPE), will be introduced (Kaufman, Glass & Pineau, 2018).
Participants will gain a deeper understanding of the theoretical and empirical basis of MSPE, factors relevant to its application across diverse populations and settings, as well as limitations of this research and future directions. This interactive, experiential workshop will provide exposure to the educational content and mindfulness exercises that comprise MSPE. Participants will learn key strategies for integrating core mindfulness skills into practice, competition, and daily life.
During a fully catered, working lunch, a moderated, multi-disciplinary panel will discuss factors related to sport performance from the sport science, coach, and athlete perspectives. Participants will also have the unique opportunity to gain hands-on, experiential instruction in MSPE concepts and practices via participation in a guided in-vivo, mindful yoga practice and a guided, mindful hike in the picturesque Olympic Valley.

According to APA’s Standards and Criteria for Approval of Sponsors, only those persons who complete the program in its entirety may be awarded CE credits.
