Because…
She brought up new perspectives and ideas to the project making it even better. We were impressed especially with her writing skills and production of content in written form. Best example of her know-how in this area are her pieces in the book called “Becoming an Elite Athlete” (Kehity Huippu-urheiljaksi) published by the Olympic Committee.”
Now I feel like I can relax and just let the body take over when I play! I don’t need to think all the time and I can just let the body do the work. I don’t overthink and analyze anymore, also my perfectionism is at a healthy level right now. I trust myself much more than before and I can finally just focus on the present moment. Thank you Saana!”

Things changed when Saana helped me peel away those layers to uncover why I put this pressure on myself – why I would get so upset with even just one mistake. She helped me find the joy of competing in a new sport after having so much success in volleyball.
I’ve gained so much confidence working with Saana and through this course. I feel like I can step on any field, against any player and ball out. I’ve learned to play fearless and, with that, came all the accolades that I never expected.”
Her professional knowledge has been excellent and she has performed the given tasks succeeding to meet with the given goals.
In addition to her substance knowledge, she has gained an appreciated position in the work community due to her initiative approach, excellence in her work and her exquisite social skills. I am very happy to recommend Saana in her future endeavours as well as in her career.”
She talked to my team and has usable tools that they were able to apply right away. At time of this writing my team is undefeated. Thank you Saana!”
I can play with so much more freedom as I am not judgmental anymore which helps me reach a more natural and fearless state on court. I can enjoy the sport again!
I also value myself and my hard work more – I can see that I am already successful, even tho I am not “world class” as my perfectionist mind wanted me to be.”
