In this episode, we talk with Danielle Veldhuis, a Registered Clinical Counsellor and founder of Foundations Counselling in Vancouver, to explore the mental side of recovery and resilience.

Our History
Founded in 2020 by Sam Brown, Remote Rugby was created to promote community engagement and help inspire young athletes to continue training and learning about rugby during the COVID-19 pandemic when schools and rugby clubs were all closed.
What began as an innovative solution to keep the spirit of rugby alive has evolved into a thriving program offering both private and group lessons.
Today, we proudly support a community of over 150 young athletes building skills on the rugby field through mentorship and education.
The Remote Rugby Coaching Team
Expert Coaching Our team of experienced coaches includes former student athletes and players who bring a wealth of knowledge and a love for the game. They are dedicated to helping you improve your skills, understand the strategies, and develop the physical fitness necessary for rugby.
Comprehensive Skill Development From passing to kicking and scrummaging, our sessions cover all the essential skills of rugby. We use a mix of drills, games, and match simulations to ensure you get the most out of every session. You'll work on agility, stamina, and overall athleticism, essential components of a successful rugby player.
