My
SERVICES
I offer comprehensive mindfulness training, which includes meditation, mindful breathing, and tailored mindfulness exercises designed specifically for athletes. My focus is on developing present-moment awareness, enhancing focus, and achieving mental clarity, all of which contribute to improved on-court performance and decision-making.
I conduct workshops that center on building mental resilience, where I integrate strategies for managing pressure, overcoming setbacks, and fostering a positive, growth-oriented mindset. Through the use of real-life scenarios and challenges encountered by athletes, I ensure that the training is practical, relevant, and highly impactful.
I create individualized resilience-building plans for each athlete, taking into account their unique challenges, goals, and personal needs. These plans are tailored to address specific areas of improvement and are designed to support the athlete's overall development. Additionally, I continuously assess and adapt these plans to ensure they remain aligned with the athlete's progress and evolving circumstances, allowing for ongoing optimization and effectiveness.
At Beyond the Court we integrate mind-body techniques such as yoga, breath work, and other holistic practices to enhance mental and emotional balance, flexibility, and strength among athletes. Through expert-guided sessions, I ensure that athletes gain the maximum benefit from these practices, allowing them to optimize their overall well-being and performance.
Gain an unshakeable edge over your competitors by mastering crucial mental skills, such as razor-sharp focus, unyielding concentration, and unwavering resilience.

WHAT people say after
WORKING with me
“I’ve always prioritized the physical training and technical skills of my players. However, working with Daniela Mellis this summer opened my eyes to the crucial role mental strength plays in an athlete's performance. Daniela joined us to work specifically with one of our key players, but her impact resonated throughout the entire team.
Her approach to mental coaching is not just about strategies and exercises; it's about understanding each athlete as an individual. She worked closely with our player, who was struggling with confidence and focus on the court. Through her sessions, I saw a remarkable transformation in his performance – his decision-making became sharper, his responses on the court more deliberate, and most importantly, his overall demeanor reflected a newfound confidence.
What impressed me the most was Daniela's holistic approach. She integrated aspects of mindfulness, stress management, and even nutrition into her coaching. She conducted sessions with the team, sharing insights on mental resilience and focus, which were incredibly beneficial.
As coaches, we sometimes overlook the mental battles our players face. Working with Daniela has made me more attuned to these aspects and better equipped to support my team's mental well-being alongside their physical training. Her contribution this summer has been invaluable, and I believe every sports team can benefit from such comprehensive mental coaching.”
