V.J. Stanley Jr. is an author and public speaker who formed Balanced Excellence (formerly Frozen Shorts) as a youth and high school sports injury prevention company. With over 30 years of experience and a published book, V.J. - and his holistic organic approach to teaching - is changing the youth and high school sports paradigm. He is (with a lot of help) using the Champion's Mindset to reset the youth and high school sports paradigm. He has done consulting work with high school and youth coaches, ex-professional athletes, college coaches, players, families, and youth organizations. V.J. believes that both mental and physical health are of long term benefit to all.  V.J.'s quotes:    "It's not my mission to decide when, if or how the light goes on for those participating in youth and high school sports. My goal is to just keep flipping the switch."​    "Children learn from internal realization, not external force!"  Connect With V.J.
