Darleen Santore, better known as “Coach Dar,” is a pint-sized powerhouse who helps “Raise the Bar” for everyone she coaches – from professional athletes and performers, to entrepreneurs and individuals who are looking to “Level Up.”
After suffering a stroke in her 20s, Coach Dar made a deal with God that she would recover, have a renewed spirit, have a renewed faith, and that she would dedicate her life to helping people believe in themselves and achieve all they can.
And for the past 22 years, she has.
Coach Dar has worked as a Board Certified Occupational Therapist, and is now a Life and Leadership coach. She helps people “Level Up” by developing character, inspiring self- confidence, and instilling leadership skills that take performance to the next level. Coach Dar works extensively with professional athletes. She has coached various players over the years with the Phoenix Suns and other athletes in all pro sports.
Coach Dar is also the U.S. Ambassador for the Global Pay It Forward Initiative. And she is an ambassador for the international lifestyle brand Lululemon.
Her powerful messages have not only made her a highly sought after coach of individuals, but also an in-demand keynote speaker. She has motivated thousands of people on the corporate speaking circuit. She is currently working on her first book, which is scheduled for release this fall.
