PingPod Hosts Launch Party: Dora Kurimay Series

Kurimay Video – My Stories of Mental Toughness

Posted on

(by Steve Hopkins)

A few weeks ago, PINGPOD held a launch party celebration at their facility in Manhattan.  The event was to help promote Dora Kurimay’s new table tennis book and video series, My Stories of Mental Toughness On and Off the Table.

Max Kogler (co-founder of PINGPOD) was the moderator.  The whole event was filmed and this is the edited video including Adam Bobrow, Samson Dubina, a recorded exchange between Matilda Ekholm and Dora, Ernesto Ebuen, Jennifer Wu, Tahl Leibovitz, Yasiris Ortiz, Luis Dias, Kaz Yokayama, and Thomas Hu.

It was a unique book and video launch party where storytelling and mental toughness were the main themes. As Dora noted – It’s important to increase the knowledge and awareness of mental toughness, mental skills, and mental health in general.
