"My trip to El Salvador with TLA was a truly unforgettable experience. The people I met and the experiences I had were remarkable. I feel that I have a different out look on life now. Material belongings are replaceable. My relationships with my friends and family is what matters most to me. I feel blessed to be in the position that I am in now. TLA put together a amazing trip that I look forward to participating in again."

"Every now and then I meet an emerging leader who has experience and wisdom far beyond what I would expect. Tyler Clabaugh is one of those leaders. Thoughtful, passionate, full of integrity, and I'll use a rare word - Love. Tyler is someone who loves life, loves people, loves athletes, and loves helping people grow into their full potential. And,he is very, very good at it. Tyler is one of those developers of leaders that if you spend one hour with him you come away a better person. I know I do. Imagine what would happen if Tyler were to be your coach and trainer. . ."

"How many times have we heard about the "leadership crisis?" Not enough leaders... not enough trained leaders... too many leaders who don't have the "right stuff" inside and so they hurt the people they lead. If you want to become a good leader, it will mean hard work, a great process, the best ideas and a gifted coach/teacher to guide you on the way. Look no further. Tyler Clabaugh and Training Leaders through Athletics is everything I just described."
Dr. Brian K. Rice, Leadership ConneXtions Intl.

"Over the summer, I went to the TLA Camp Program. The camp really impacted me and put life into perspective. Some changes I have made are prioritizing better and looking at everyone exactly the same. I also have more energy and commitment in the things I participate in, like student council and sports teams. I now look at failure as a good thing and do everything I can to better myself each day. This camp has influenced me to become a woman of influence. I'm not afraid to speak in front of people anymore. I can step up and take new challenges and believe in myself to achieve my goals."
