At Matt Tally Empowered Minds, we use the power of structured sport, movement, and creative learning to nurture the mental wellbeing, confidence, and social development of young people. Our programs are built around a core Social & Emotional Learning (SEL) pathway that helps students grow emotionally, think positively, connect socially, and reach their full potential.
We work with children and young people across Worcester and surrounding areas, creating inclusive, inspiring spaces where every participant feels seen, supported, and celebrated.

SEL & Wellbeing Pathway
Our Empowered Minds SEL Pathway
Our pathway is designed to recognise individual areas of need and provide every student with practical tools to grow into more confident, resilient individuals — equipped for challenges on and off the pitch.
We embed these five core SEL areas into every session through sport, group work, creative challenges and movement-based mindfulness:
1. **Self-Awareness** – Discovering personal strengths through sport, building confidence, adopting a growth mindset, and setting aspirations.
2. **Self-Management** – Developing resilience, emotion regulation, and perseverance through movement, including yoga and boxing-inspired activities.
3. **Responsible Decision-Making** – Learning to take ownership of actions, solve problems, understand values, and build healthy daily habits.
4. **Relationship Skills** – Strengthening teamwork, communication, conflict resolution, and trust-building through shared goals and play.
5. **Social Awareness** – Fostering empathy, kindness, cultural awareness, and mutual respect in every session.
These values aren’t just taught — they’re experienced through every challenge, every activity, and every shared win.
