A young champ, talking to young champs
I'm Thiaan Shah, and I host Champs Unplugged. I'm on a mission to talk to young champions about their kickstarters, their highs and their lows, and share those stories with parents raising champs and kids building dreams.
[Why you started Champs Unplugged, in your own words, 2 to 3 lines.]
Which one sounds like your child?
Every young champion's journey looks different. Wherever your child is today, we're here for the next step.
Full of energy and questions, but hasn't found their thing yet. You'd love to see them try new things and speak up with confidence.
Football on Monday, swimming on Wednesday, chess on Saturday. You're still figuring out what will stick.
They love their sport, but screens, friends and school pressure keep pulling them away. You wish they had their old fire back.
Early mornings, weekend tournaments, big dreams. They've put in the work, and you want the world to see it.
Programs for every young champ
Two ways to go beyond listening.
Three live sessions that train your child to tell their journey with confidence, plus a story profile, a 60-second video and a Champ Story reel on Champs Unplugged.
Quizzes and movement exercises that help kids discover what they love, build discipline and find their sport.
