What is mPEAK?

The mPEAK (Mindful Performance Enhancement, Awareness, and Knowledge) program boosts the human capacity of mindfulness through established and empirically supported practices and exercises. mPEAK is an intensive course in mindfulness training for those who seek to draw upon this proven practice to achieve their goals, both personal and professional, as well as attain new levels of performance and success. This training can be tailored to fit the needs and desires of the team, organization, or individual.

mPEAK is like JEDI training for the real world.

" Kate has both the heart of a mother and of a warrior. Compassion is her natural way. She has the capacity to meet the difficulty of her students with kindness while always still pointing them toward greater focus, resilience and self-awareness. In Kate you will find a Coach, a friend and a role model for mindfulness. Kate came to the mPEAK Coach Training with a solid background in mindfulness and it has been my honor to help her refine her skills in preparation to coach high performers of all types.”

"I took the mPEAK class with Sasha and Kate and it was the most powerful class I have taken. The material and content were great but the real impact was from both Sasha and Kate's presence. You feel both inspired and heard from their interactions. They walk the walk. My performances have improved since taking the class and I feel I can catch "flow" more often with my runs/swims!!! I also learned more about myself in the process."

"Taking the mPEAK series of classes was a tremendous gift - for the first time I feel that I have mindfulness tools that help me see and hear my inner thoughts with clarity, and make decisions about what (if anything) I may want to do with them. To that end, my self-compassion is finally taking root, and I have a strong starting point for self-awareness growth."

-Mi'Jan Celie Tho-Biaz, mPEAK Graduate   

“Kate has a unique ability to lead while walking along side you.  She’s a gifted teacher who’s inspiring and compassionate, humorous and yet profound.  I’ve grown deeper in my love of meditation by witnessing hers.”

-Mike Root, mPEAK Graduate

“Because my peak performance isn’t in sports, I wasn’t totally sure how I would be able to relate to the mPEAK course. I was happily surprised that mPEAK clicked for me a million times over…my jam is as an artist, activist, mother and baker. I found the course content and Kate’s authentic and joyful teaching so engaging and inspiring!”

-Yuki Murata, mPEAK Graduate
