Want your child/teen to improve their skills to perform their best? Of course, so why not train the mind along with the body so your athlete can perform with confidence?
All components of practice and competition, even rehab from an injury, are affected by one’s mental game. Don't wait until your child is in a panic state, not hitting their routines, or fearful of a skill. The result will fall short of realizing their goals.
We know how the mind is an integral part of the training and competitive experience. Enhance their performances now with SuperStar Mental Games!
Meet Dr. Sue Massimo, Your SuperStar Mental Games Coach
Hi, I’m Dr. Sue Massimo and you can call me Dr. Sue.
I’m a former competitor in gymnastics, swimming, and water polo. I also have experience in acro-gymnastics, trampoline/mini-tramp, and diving. I was a circus performer in college specializing in choreographed aerial acts.
I have over 20 year's experience as an Elite and J.O. levels gymnastics coach. I’m a co-author, with Dr. Joe "Doc" Massimo, of over 100 articles and several books. Gymnastics Psychology: The Ultimate Guide for Coaches, Gymnasts, and Parents is an Amazon best-seller.
I can't wait to meet you all and support you as you pursue your dreams and realize your peak potential! ~ Dr. Sue
"I highly recommend ‘Gymnastics Psychology: The Ultimate Guide for Coaches, Gymnasts, and Parents' to every coach whether you're just starting out or have been around for a while. I believe the knowledge I have gained from understanding the psychological aspects of the sport have helped further my career and the accomplishments of my gymnasts. I would suggest that every coach takes the time to read the book in its entirety and then go back and pick out parts to begin incorporating into their own training programs."
I have been grateful for the knowledge and insights into sports psychology that Dr. Sue Massimo has provided for my gymnasts and me in her workshops during gymnastics camps and clinics. I continue to use many of her techniques in mastering fear with my gymnasts today."
“In reading about the psychology of gymnastics, rest assured you are learning from two of the very best in the world of gymnastics psychology. Nowhere will you learn more practical information about such concepts as the psychology of fear, anger, motivation, stress, mental preparation, ethics of coaching, coaching commandments, eating disorders, recovery from injury, transition to elite sport, or the unique aspect of leaving home to train.”
"The sport of Gymnastics has always been about having a strong mind to support a strong body."
Should you choose to accept it, is to provide your student athletes with proven mental game success skills, so they can conquer their mental blocks & challenges, compete with total confidence and realize their peak potential in sports, school, and life!

The authors, Dr. Sue Massimo and the late Dr. Joe Massimo, have over 100 combined years in the sport of gymnastics as competitors, judges, coaches, and sports psychologists.
Just like learning physical skills in the gym, mental skills training takes time, practice and dedication.
As your athletes learn to master games skills and strategies, they'll begin to feel happier and more confident about themselves and their performances.
At any time during the program, you feel your athletes are struggling with the program, please reach out and let's set up a brief chat to get them back on track.
However, if you feel the program isn't working out for them, I will issue you a full refund- no questions asked within the first 30 days.
The SuperStar Mental Games program is a year-round program. Monthly Game Plans are combined into 90-day topic areas like the "SuperStar Success Formula". Mental game topics are explored weekly with action exercises provided so your child can practice using their new mental game skills.
All material for the mental game program will be delivered through an easy-to-use online learning platform. They will be able to watch videos, listen to audios, or read the documents containing the mental game training to best fit their learning style. Action exercises should be printed out, completed, and kept in a notebook.
Your support and involvement will greatly improve your athlete’s learning and application of mental training skills, especially with younger children. You will receive bi-weekly mental game topic summaries of the skills that your child is learning. You'll also be provided with discussion questions to explore the mental game topics like mental challenges and confidence with your child.
All material for the parent's mental game guides will be delivered through an online learning platform. You will have a different login to access your parent-only material. You will have access to videos, audios, and text documents according to your best learning style. You may also print out the discussion questions to open up communication with your chilsd if you wish.
Yes, since all the mental game training is accessed online, you and your child can use your PC, phone or tablet to access the material from anywhere- at any time. Your athlete can even watch or listen to the lessons on your commute to and from practices and competitions.
Each mental game training is designed to only be about 10 minutes long. Some of the action exercises can be done in a few minutes while a few others will take longer and may need the help of their parents or coaches to complete.
Dr. Sue is here to assist your athlete along the way with all aspects of the training through our group chats and Q&A. I provide many examples of the exercises to help your child fill them out and practice what they are learning. They may also seek the help of their parents and coaches.
Dr. Sue will be offering a 30-minute weekly group "check-in" based on submitted questions to see how each athlete is doing with their mental training. I will answer questions as well as celebrate their "wins" as they progress through the program.
Yes, SuperStar Mental Games is based on proven mental training skills and strategies that will be beneficial for any athlete. The examples and exercises, however, are primarily for athletes in Artistic and Acrobatic Gymnastics, Trampoline & Tumbling, along with sports like Springboard Diving.
Dr. Sue will be monitoring the parent chat portal in the platform so you will be able to make comments and ask your questions. You'll also have the other parents in there who may be able to help you with ideas or suggestions. For more private matters concerning your child, you'll be able to email Dr Sue.
