“BEFORE I STARTED WORKING WITH SAANA, FOOTBALL WAS OVERWHELMING FOR ME. BEING NEW TO THE SPORT AND ALREADY SUCCESSFUL, I FELT PRESSURE TO BE PERFECT EVERY REP. AND WHEN I WOULD EXECUTE, IT STILL WASN’T ENOUGH.
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.”
does this sound familiar?
As a professional athlete or as an aspiring pro, you know how crazy good the competition is and how important it is to perform at your best level all the time. And with that, comes pressure. Because achieving success requires good results, consistently.
Enter Performance Coding – a proven framework that revolutionizes your relationship with performance. It empowers you to unlock unwavering confidence, even in the most high-pressure moments.
Through mindfulness techniques, you'll gain the ability to stay in the present, maintaining razor-sharp focus. This newfound stability elevates your performance, offering you the crucial edge needed to achieve your big athletic dreams, whether it is the big wins, MVP titles, national team spots, extended time on the court, or attractive contracts and sponsorships.
Your athletic dreams are actually within reach.
“I went from feeling fearful of mistakes, other people's opinions and overall struggling with my self-confidence to trust myself a lot more. I was able to cope with the challenges and become much stronger as the trust in myself, in my uniqueness and value as a person grew!”

"SO MANY THINGS HAVE CHANGED FOR THE BETTER WITH THE NEXT LEVEL ATHLETE COURSE – I NO LONGER FEEL LIKE I AM LACKING SOMETHING. I TRUST MYSELF A LOT MORE TO DO A GOOD JOB, AND MISTAKES DON’T MEAN THAT I AM A WORTHLESS HUMAN.
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.”

“WITH THE HELP OF SAANA, I MANAGED TO GET OUT OF THE HOLE THAT I WAS STUCK IN DUE TO MY OVERTHINKING AND PERFECTIONISM.
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. 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 AND EXECUTE. THANK YOU SAANA!”

Do you feel
Overwhelmed by all the things you should be doing every day to become a better athlete?
Nervous under pressure , when all the eyes are on you often leading you to perform under your level?
Insecure about your body and skills - feeling like maybe they are not enough to get you where you wanna go?
Down for days if you don't perform like you wanted to and you may often feel like you also let everyone down?
Like you are just always going to be the underdog and people around you don't believe in you enough?
If you answered yes to any of those, read this section…
this is what most athletes experience but it doesn't need to be that way.
here are the explanations why you might feel the doubt, overwhelm and pressure… 👇🏼
you have a fear of inadequacy
Fear is making you feel like you are not enough, or not talented enough, or not skilled enough, or not loud enough, or not smart enough, or not quick enough, or not thin enough and so on.. → Losing joy
lack of self-trust
When you are not confident with who you are, you look around, see all the other people succeeding… And end up comparing yourself to them and then struggle with feelings why you are not there yet. Not fun. → Losing confidence
hustle for hustle
You feel the need to do a ton of things but can't feel content at the end of the day… You think you could always do a bit more or a bit better and if you don't, you feel like you're lazy. → Losing peace
… which is why the work in this course tackles those and will result in changes like this...
feelings of Self-trust that shows when other people's opinions won't affect you as much anymore. You don't need them. You know your value.
major boost in confidence so you can move through the highs and lows of sports giving you the chance to compete at your best in any situation
An illuminated vision for your future that pulls you forward especially on the bad days so they suck less
A visceral set of mindset skills that will allow you to stay more focused, energized and calm than before!
consistency that comes from clarity, confidence and the tools you gain on this course
transformational
journeys into your body!!!
Beyond our group training, I'm so excited to introduce you to a unique aspect of our program: monthly breathwork journey sessions.
These sessions are designed to help you forge a profound connection between your mind and body, unlocking a pathway to unparalleled, new kind of success you haven't experienced ye
As athletes, we often push our bodies to the limit, ignoring the signals they send us in pursuit of peak performance. However, this relentless drive can sometimes cause us to lose touch with our own physical home.
Your body is more than just a vessel or vehicle; it's your partner in achieving greatness. It's time to harmonize your mental and physical prowess, transcending the traditional boundaries that separate them.
What sets this program apart from other mindset programs is the incorporation of breathwork journeys, a practice widely utilized by elite athletes and high performers.
These sessions are nothing short of transformative, offering you the opportunity to revitalize your relationship with your body, finally harnessing its full potential that has been hidden so far.
Value: $388
breathwork experiences from my clients
"Working with Saana was an absolute pleasure. Guided by her potent leadership energy, she was able to guide me through an equally potent breathwork session where I was able to release some pent up anger. I didn't know I had been carrying more than I could handle.
After the session I felt a sense of clarity and even forgiveness. It was the first time in a few weeks that I felt like my old self again. I'm so grateful for Saana and her ability to hold space."
—Amanda
Breathwork was like an intense electricity going through my body, something I’ve never experienced before. By getting in so much oxygen, I let out a lot of emotions I wasn't even aware of - really cool! My mind was clear and empty after the breathwork!
—Jurja
"Breathwork was a new and great experience for me. Before it I was little bit nervous that if it would feel awkward or weird but already after few minutes I started to feel comfortable.
During the breathwork I felt tingling feeling in my body and this energy that was almost burning inside. I also felt sadness, worry and happiness and I felt like I need to let them all out as they are.
After the breathwork I felt relieved, calm, sensitive, tired but happy."
—Kaisa
“Breathwork was an emotional experience that allowed me to acknowledge the painful memories that are still present in my body and holding me back today. Realising that my body still stores the pain was healing, and also a chance for me to praise myself for getting through so much pain, struggle and loneliness to get to where I am now. Although i haven’t been able to completely let go yet, it was so healing just to ‘see’ the pain clearly rather than push it away like usual!”
—Katie
HEY,
I’m
Saana!
Throughout my career as a professional volleyball player, I was strugging with the feelings of being an underdog, held back by perfectionism, and the thought that my sensitivity was a weakness to hide. After I shifted my beliefs about those things, I succeeded like never before!! It was like magic! Even my eating problems faded away.
But! My work is not only a narration of my own life journey, but a culmination of 3 years of 1:1 mindset coaching and lifelong learning about values, human behavior, psychology, beliefs, NLP, breathwork, mindfulness and so on.
My desire to help others see and trust their capability and feel better about themselves while competing at the highest level has brought me feelings of such grand fulfillment. I am thrilled to share my insights and help you conquer your own mountain! I give you the tools and support, you take the steps. And we'll celebrate each step until we get to the peak! :)

Don't settle for average when you can be so much more!! The secret is to know yourself (your values, strengths, fears and doubts) better so you can feel confident in who you are and create all the success from that place. Not the other way round where the performance of the day is defining your worthiness or how you feel about yourself. You deserve more and it's time to change how you approach your sport.

So how does this program help me?

Overcome overwhelm and guilt through vision: Balancing rigorous training schedules, competitions, and personal lives can be a significant challenge to juggle.

are these your thoughts? 👇🏼
"I'm not sure I can afford the program right now."
Financial concerns are valid, and I respect that. Yet, think of this as an investment in your career and well-being. Often, we spend money on external factors to improve our performance, but investing in yourself can provide the most significant return. We also offer payment plans.
Ask yourself what it would be worth if you could raise the level of your performance in the next 2 months? What could you achieve? Many athletes say that it was a stretch to invest but it is a one-time cost to learn skills you will use the rest of your life. That's a pretty good deal.
"I'm concerned about opening up and discussing my fears and insecurities with others."
It's natural to feel that way. However, our program creates a supportive, very small group environment where sharing your fears can be incredibly liberating. You'll discover that you're not alone in your struggles, and the group dynamic can be a powerful catalyst for growth.
This discomfort has lead to breakthroughs for my previous clients when they've connected with others in the group over issues or challenges.
"I'm not convinced this program will work for me; I've tried other mental training before."
I appreciate your skepticism, and it's wise to be discerning. What sets this program apart is its holistic approach, incorporating elements like breathwork that are favored by top athletes. Our results speak for themselves.
Plus, with my risk-free trial period, you have nothing to lose by giving it a try. You might be pleasantly surprised at the breakthroughs you can achieve.
"I'm not sure I have the time for this program with my busy training schedule."
I completely understand that your training regimen is rigorous and time-consuming. But consider this: dedicating time to this program could actually optimize your training. Think of it as an investment in yourself.
By enhancing your mental game, overcoming self-doubt (reason you might over-do things) and getting clear on your priorities, you'll likely see improvements in your performance that can ultimately save you time, make your training more effective and your life less busy.
"I'm afraid I won't have time to attend all the group calls."
Sometimes our schedules can be tight. Remember, our program is designed to be flexible. If you can't make a live group call, recordings are available. Just send your questions beforehand, I'll answer them in the call and watch the replay on your own time.
What's more important is your commitment to personal growth. If you're serious about reaching your potential, the program will fit into your life, no matter your schedule.
"I'm not sure if I'm ready to commit to this program; it's a big step."
Commitment can be daunting, but it's also the first step towards meaningful change. Think of this as a pivotal moment in your journey. Are you content with where you are now, or are you ready to take the leap towards becoming the athlete you've always aspired to be?
Our program is here to guide you, every step of the way, on your journey to become the athlete of your dreams.
What would you achieve in 2 months if you could feel confident and strong also after a day when you didn't perform at your best level? How would you go after your goals the next day when the performance dip wouldn't cause you to doubt yourself?
What would you achieve if your level of performance wouldn't be just a crazy roller coaster ride but a more consistent ride? When you can e.g. stay calm and composed under pressure so you can truly show what your level is? When you can be bolder in your actions and not play small anymore?
Results are behind the bold but consistent action.
What would you achieve if you would enjoy the sport again and actually have a roadmap to your goals?
The doors to your dreams aren't as far as you think… The path to success is intricately intertwined with our mindset. It's not just about physical skills and abilities; it's about believing in our own worthiness and potential to achieve greatness, even on the toughest days.
Let's make it happen together!
Speed. Think about the speed you can grow at if you get to work on your mindset on a weekly and daily basis instead of e.g. doing this work on your own? If getting better faster is important to you, you will love this program.

“I was struggling with anxiety and stress, and allowing stressing about the wrong things effect the enjoyment I got out of sports.
I was at the point where the smallest change to my schedule or training routine would stress me out and make me anxious - really effecting my performance and general well being.
Another thing was guilg and I would over train to shut off the guilt in my head…
Since we started working together with Saana, I have been able to listen to my body so much more. I have learned to always work out the route of my stresses and anxiety. I've been able to adapt to anxious feelings at training, use breathing techniques and have started enjoying my training again by not putting as much pressure on it.
This hasn't just improved my thinking and actions in my sport and performance but overall life as well!!
