Hi, I am Steve Kamps. I help athletes, coaches, teams and parents build the mental skills that make performance more consistent under pressure.
Background
- Bachelor of Physical Education (BPE) and Master of Kinesiology (M.Kin), University of Calgary, with formal training in coaching and the psychology of performance
- Former varsity volleyball player at the University of Calgary
- Former College of the Rockies men’s volleyball head coach for 16 seasons
- Former CCAA Canadian Coach of the Year
- Kinesiology Instructor at College of the Rockies in Cranbrook, BC
- Based in Cranbrook for nearly three decades
- Consulting with athletes at local, provincial, national and international levels
Credentials: NCCP Performance Coach (Level Three) · NCCP Learning Facilitator and Coach Evaluator for Volleyball Canada
Who I’ve worked with
The athletes and teams I’ve worked with
Sports I work with
Volleyball, hockey, basketball, golf, gymnastics, freestyle skiing, boxing, archery, curling, mixed martial arts, equestrian and dragon boating.
How I work
Practical and sport-specific. Every session ends with something you can use: a cue, a routine, a checklist or a plan. Sessions run in person in Cranbrook or online through Microsoft Teams.
Mental performance consulting is educational skill-building. It is not therapy, counselling or medical treatment. If you need clinical support, I will help you find a referral.
