Mind, body and soul - what makes a champion?

By Allan Snyder - posted Tuesday, 15 August 2000


Imagine if we could focus the momentum and the spirit of the Olympic movement into enriching and expanding human performance panoramically?

Imagine an interactive, worldwide Olympic forum on the study of performance.

Make this a reality and the human spirit will soar ever more intensely, across this entire planet.

Make this a reality and the spirit of Olympism will breathe through us all.
