About

My name is Rebecca Petersen a Certified Athletic Trainer for over 22 years. I am also the mother of 2 daughters who have been participating in organized sports since the age of 4, starting first with soccer, softball, basketball, and lacrosse. Access to proper athletic health care services for our younger athletes is limited. Many youth sport leagues are volunteer run and medical care is often left to the coach or parent who often lack even basic first aid knowledge. I recognize this gap and want to increase the level of safety and preparedness among our youth, giving coaches and parents the knowledge to be prepared in the event of an emergency. Kinetic was formed in 2018 and fully launced the summer of 2021, bringing the idea to practice. I bring to Kinetic my experience as an athletic trainer in collegiate and professional athletics, an educator at an accredited graduate athletic training program and clinical in an outpatient concussion center in Stamford. My goal is to improve the health and safety of our youth and to train more individuals in lifesaving CPR and first aid. I look forward to working with community organizations to provide current, evidence-based education on various topics related to sports safety and responding in the event of an emergency in a planned and coordinated manner.

Be Safe and Have Fun!
