Coaches Retreat (in person) - West Coast
Going to Ironman™ Arizona? Maybe you've got friends or athletes racing and need another reason to travel there? Or maybe you want to race IMAZ sometime in the future? Well now you've got another reason: Team MPI Coaches Retreat - WEST COAST on that Friday before IMAZ at the venue!
Come join Team MPI on our annual Coaches Retreat for a full day of instruction that will enhance your knowledge, introduce you to some of the best coaches in the country and earn you USA Triathlon Coaching CEU's!
Team MPI's group of Coaches believe in collaboration and growth. Each Coach at Team MPI has a Coach Mentor, and every month a Professional Advancement of Coaching Education (PACE) video presentation is conducted by a different Team MPI Coach that brings the team together to learn and grow.
This belief in collaboration extends to those Coaches and athletes outside of Team MPI as well. That's why we've created our Coaches Retreats. Come join us in Tempe AZ for a full day of interesting and inspiring presentations along with a warm social atmosphere that invites discussion, sharing and learning.
Come. Collaborate. Learn. Go Teach.
