Description

Hi there! We’re Danie and Ari, the owners of Elevate Ultimate in Vancouver, Canada. We focus on teaching life skills and values, such as conflict resolution and personal accountability, to kids aged 6 – 18 through the sport of ultimate. 

Ari has represented U24 Team Canada twice and is now on his 5th season with Vancouver’s Furious George. 

Danie is the assistant coach for U20 Team Canada Women and an athlete on Mixed Masters Team Canada. She is also a physical education teacher. 

We have coached over 10,000 kids the past four years, from In-School PE programs to high-level High School Academy Training, and we’ve learned a couple of tricks along the way. We share all our tricks, games, and more in our book. Buy it today!
A special thanks to Flik Ultimate for all their support in hosting our video tutorials, and spreading the word about this project!
