Balancing Performance and Wellness

In this podcast, we speak with Chris Ekron.

Chris is currently the Head of Sports Performance and Wellness and Bishops College, Cape Town, where he has developed a sports program designed to balance the pressures of student-athlete life.

A specialist in Youth Development, Chris is also the founder of Athlete Performance Mentorships which supports student-athletes to high performance through mentorship, management, and sports education.

Throughout this podcast, we discuss the pressures facing our student-athletes and how we can balance sports performance and student wellness by taking a 'winning the moment' approach to sport, rather than focusing on the outcomes.

Join us in this insightful interview as we learn from Chris Ekron.
