Britni Murai
When I was thinking about what I wanted to call my mental performance business, one word came to my mind: gaman (我慢). As a fifth generation Japanese American, this word holds a lot of meaning to me. Gaman is the concept of patiently persevering through hard times. It is not the absence of pain or tough experiences, but it is the ability to persevere. It involves not only the behavioral or emotional endurance, but it also involves looking inward and managing or controlling oneself.
Britni really helped me find ways to keep a more confident and positive mindset. I’ve learned ways to reset and think about how I am on the court and where it was or wasn’t helpful. For me, working with her has benefited me in so many ways and she always keeps a positive attitude, which encourages me to follow the way she acts.

I invited Britni to be part of our Elite summer program. What she brings to the athletes is practical and connected to situations they actually experience on the court. It feels natural and relevant. She is someone I trust with my players and someone I really enjoy working with. I would definitely recommend Britni to any coach, team, or club looking to help their athletes grow both on and off the court.

While working with Britni, I’ve learned to mentally reset on the court and realize that mistakes don’t define me as a person. Thanks to Britni, I am able to refocus faster and stay optimistic under pressure.

Working with Britni on the workshops was fantastic, and I really saw a positive impact on the team’s mentality and communication. Her approach is incredibly effective, and I highly recommend her services to any coach looking to build confidence in their players.
