Naturopathic Sports Nutrition for Naturopaths & Nutritionists
6 MONTH GROUP MENTORING PROGRAM - 20 CPE HOURS
Naturopathic Sports Nutrition Mentoring
As a practitioner and lecturer of Naturopathy, Nutrition and Sports Nutrition for over 25 years it is my great pleasure to also make available an online mentoring program that runs for 6 modules that is available to final year students and practitioners of Naturopathy and Nutrition.
I am now in my 12th year of running online mentoring programs and am excited to announce my new format for a more in depth and interactive experience. The success of these groups has seen me work closely together with people from all over the world including Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Germany, Canada and the USA.
Join live lectures and Q&A mentoring calls with Kira Sutherland twice per module.
Get instant access to my library of sports nutrition resources, downloads, meal plans, additional videos and guides.
Connect with a community of fellow practitioners and ask me questions in between group calls.
Access all call recordings and course resources online at any time during and after the program.
Training Modules
Each month I take deep dive into a different Sports Nutrition topic.
The information is shared via a monthly group Training call, a monthly discussion call, and additional resources.
Conversation within the Facebook group allows you to ask questions between calls as you need.
TOPICS COVERED INCLUDE:
MODULE 1
Exercise physiology, Macronutrient needs of athletes, and recovery nutrition.
MODULE 2
Endurance sports, eating before and during training.
MODULE 3
Strength sports, weight gain and protein.
MODULE 4
Teenage athletes, team sports and hydration.
MODULE 5
Women, reproductive cycles, REDS and weight loss.
MODULE 6
Meal planning, supplements, and drugs in sports.
About The Training
Each intake for this mentoring group is limited to 20 practitioners and students only.
There are 2 live training sessions held online via Zoom per module.
The first session of the module is a lecture on a specific topic in sports nutrition as well as questions during the lecture.
The second session of the module is an in-depth discussion of the topic covered in the first session, as well as a case study or other tool to better understand the topic of the module.
I use Zoom for the video lectures as it allows for all participants to interact with each other as well as myself.
A private Facebook group has been created so students can chat throughout the training modules and share resources, research, recipes that you may find. You might even like to ask specific questions about your clients too to get my feedback.
Audio, video and screen-share recordings of each training will be available for you to review or replay following each training session. I also provide lecture notes for your reference. All information will be available for you to access online and refer to at anytime on my membership site.
“I’ve been lucky enough to take part in Kira’s sports nutrition mentoring program and would highly recommend it to anyone wishing to take their learning to the next level. Her knowledge and expertise is simply inspiring. The sessions were tailored to meet everyone’s needs and interests, as opposed to a set format, and as a member of the Facebook mentoring group we continue to have a place to ask questions and continue our learning beyond the program itself.”
Vanessa Briese
“The website and learning content were amazing, but what Kira brought to each session was amazing and added so much extra information and real-life experience. Having a topic each month was really handy to keep content focused and relevant without getting lost in all the info. If you have a keen interest in sport or regularly see athletes in your clinic, this course is a must!”
Lisa
Student Naturopath & Nutritionist
“After completing my degree I was very interested in performance nutrition, Kira’s mentoring was the obvious choice. The support, knowledge and confidence I gained was brilliant. With Kira’s knowledge and support I was comfortable in immediately providing nutrition recommendations for endurance athletes including a successful athlete who completed 31 marathons in 31 days – couldn’t have done with without Kira or her mentoring.”
Alethea Mills
Working with Kira has been the most valuable thing I have done for my business and myself all year. Kira is extremely knowledgeable in both sports nutrition and naturopathy, and her willingness to share this knowledge makes her the most incredible mentor. I always looked forward to our monthly sessions, and found that I came away not only with practical information to use with my clients, but also the confidence to do so. I can’t speak highly enough of Kira’s mentoring program, and would wholeheartedly recommend it to any practitioner looking to expand their knowledge. – Kate Johnston, Naturopath/Nutritionist

Yes, I welcome practitioners that are currently studying. The content of this program is well suited to both practicing and studying health and holistic practitioners. PTs and sports coaches may also find this program valuable.
“Kira’s mentoring is very informative and definitely worth the investment if you are interested in sports nutrition. She provides great resources and engages everyone in the mentoring sessions. You can envisage her as the ideal team captain both on and off the field!”
Kate S
Sports Nutritionist
“Kira is an outstanding mentor and educator in the area of sports nutrition. Her knowledge and training in this area is exceptional and she has a way of explaining and translating this information to her groups that is simple and practical using case studies and her own examples. You may want to specialise in Sports nutrition or just understand enough to support your current client base, I cannot recommend Kira and her programs more highly.”
