À propos de cet audio
Duff Gibson has spent the better part of three decades in a hotbed of Olympic sport. As an athlete, Duff was a provincial champion speed skater, national champion, and national team member in bobsleighing, and then a world and Olympic gold medalist in the sport of skeleton. As a coach, he led six different athletes to podium finishes at a world level. Competing against, working with, and learning from numerous world-leading athletes and coaches has provided Duff a breadth and depth of experience few others have had.
Despite its mischaracterization in popular culture, the mental side of sport is perhaps the most significant aspect, and what very often makes the difference between success and failure, in particular at the highest level. The Tao of Sport explores the commonality amongst elite performers relating to purpose, passion, and growth, as a means to achieving high performance, or as a means to an end in itself.
An inspiring and informative listen for athletes and coaches of any level, as well as parents, teachers, and anyone helping others to become the best version of themselves.
The Tao of Sport will forever change your perspective on what it really takes to win.

"When I started Classroom Champions, it was because I wanted to have an impact and because I believe in the Olympic ideals. That came from my experiences as an athlete. Duff and I were both immersed in sport at a time and place that I think we’ll look back on as being very special. There was and is tremendous value in what we lived and learned. The Tao of Sport encapsulates that time and a value system that elevates everyone involved. It’s as much about character and personal growth as it is about high achievement and I loved reading every page." (Steve Mesler, Olympic gold medalist in bobsleigh and founder of Classroom Champions)

Well worth listening to
An excellent book on the mental aspects of sport and a fascinating window into high performance athletics and the passion that drives the athletes.
Highly recommend to anyone with kids involved in sports as a reminder that it is “just sport” and what they take away goes far beyond the wins and losses. Cultivating a desire to improve, not just for the sake of winning, but for the inherent enjoyment of the sport is what keeps young athletes in sports. That enjoyment and passion may or may not lead to high performance teams but it will lead to a lifetime of being active. As an added bonus, the author does an excellent narration of his own book.
