Ryan Leech – A Perspective on Sport Addiction

Have you ever been hopelessly addicted to sport, needing your daily or weekly fix? It is this type of obsession that led Ryan to earn a reputation for being one of the most progressive and technically skilled mountain bikers in the world. He has spent the last 16 years showcasing his skills by performing stunt shows for more than a quarter million people. He’s known to make the impossible seem effortless, and takes the same approach to his new role as a Professional Integral Coach™. Working privately with public figures to enact sustainable results in topics that deeply matter, he’s noticed a common theme for pro & recreational athletes alike, which is this uncontrollable urge to play! In his FEAT presentation, Ryan hopes to share some ideas as to why this is the case, what some of the healthy and unhealthy results might be, and to explore what hidden messages might emerge.
