Women’s Canadian Olympic Downhill Ski Team

In 1982, Currie Chapmen, then coach of the Women’s Canadian Olympic Downhill Ski Team, used a dozen Mind Over Muscle programs, with GSR2’s, for the entire team. Major Nory Laderoute and Lawrence Klein had conceived of MIND OVER MUSCLE in answer to Mr. Klein’s question; “Would racers be faster through the gates if they memorized the course in a state of relaxation with biofeedback as opposed to trying to do it in a normal waking state?” After their success with the Canadian Military Pentathalon team, Laderoute and Klein worked with the women’s team to tone their visualization and mental training skills. Laurie Graham, Jerry Sorenson and Lisa Zavajarvi all won numerous world cup downhills.
