Meet Lina Krasnorutskaya | Kids sport psychologist

We had the good fortune of connecting with Lina Krasnorutskaya and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Lina, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
I am in the industry of high performance sport for almost 25 years. I was a professional tennis player myself at the highest level, so I know what is needed in the industry. That’s why I am working with young athletes as a psychologist.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
Being in high performance sort for almost 35 years I see a need to help young athletes to get better and stronger. I truly believe that sport psychology is the future of any high performance sport and it will be one of the tools which will help improve the performances. I was a top professional athlete in the world myself, that’s why I know what is needed in the industry. Professional sort is very challenging and mentally hard. Working with young athletes, giving them tools how to manage it in my opinion is the key to success in sport these days.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Miami is a beach city. I also like exploring the nature around. Usually when friends and family are around we explore parks, deli tips restaurants all over Miami, shows and great concerts.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
