Hi, I'm Jimmy Yoo, the founder and director of EPIC Sport Mindset.  Sports have always been a part of my life, but my true passion lies in helping people exceed their perceived potential. As a lifelong athlete and a coach with over 20 years of experience working with both individual athletes and teams, I understand what it takes to aim higher and achieve more than you thought possible.

​

The key to success is being passionate, motivated, and enjoying the day-to-day process, all while having the right support system in place to help you perform at your best. That’s where I come in.

 

With a Master’s Degree in Sport Psychology, I’ve spent over a decade helping athletes thrive under pressure. My specialty is guiding athletes to perform with passion, grit, and fun. I’ve developed a performance model that combines advanced scientific methods from sport psychology with my personal experiences as both an athlete and a coach.
 

My approach focuses on building a peak performance mindset geared toward mastery. Together, we create a personalized performance plan that helps athletes fully engage their mind and body, training toward their personal best.

​My Journey​

The beautiful Pacific Northwest is where I call home, along with my wife, two kids, and dog.  We love spending time outdoors, hiking, camping, skiing, and playing at the beach.

 

As an athlete, I faced a significant challenge when I tore my ACL during my senior year of high school. At the time, it felt devastating, but it became a turning point that taught me valuable lessons:

​

• Physically, I learned the importance of training smarter, prioritizing proper nutrition, rest, and recovery as key components of an effective training program.

 

• Mentally, I discovered the power of patience, perspective, and focusing on the process. These skills taught me to stay present in the moment, make split-second decisions under pressure, and perform with confidence.

 

This experience helped me understand that everyone—athletes and non-athletes alike—faces their own competitive environments. Whether it’s in sport, school, work, or life, we all need to perform daily, and sometimes we get stuck.

​

Let me help you get unstuck. Bring your passion, and I’ll provide the tools, perspective, and experience to help you become the best version of yourself and achieve your goals.

​

Let’s make your journey EPIC.​​​​​​
