The Partnership
Boxing, Fitness & Mental Wellness, Delivered to the Community
Cole “Sandman” Smith and the Warrior Mentality team travel to rural and on-reserve communities across Saskatchewan, bringing boxing, fitness, nutrition, and honest mental health programming under one roof. Every visit is built around a simple idea: stronger minds and stronger bodies build stronger communities.
What We Offer
Programs Available
Boxing & Fitness Classes
Skill-building boxing and conditioning for all ages and fitness levels, taught the way Cole coaches everyone: meet you where you are, take you further.

Practical guidance on training, fuelling the body, and building habits that hold up long after the session ends.
Mental Health Workshops
Honest conversations and education around suicide, addictions, bullying, and recovery, led by people who have lived it.
Motivational Speakers

Flagship Program
3-Day Holistic Youth Empowerment Program
Designed for elementary and high school students in rural and on-reserve communities.
Program Goals
This program builds confidence, discipline, and self-belief while supporting physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health. It exposes youth to positive role models, real-life stories, and education around mental health, healing, and addiction awareness. It also fosters entrepreneurship, self-determination, and a strong reconnection to Indigenous identity, culture, and values.
Daily Structure
Each day follows a consistent, predictable rhythm to create a sense of safety, structure, and engagement for participants. The schedule blends cultural practices, physical movement, storytelling, nutrition education, hands-on workshops, and guided reflection to support holistic learning. Time blocks are adjusted as needed to suit elementary versus high school age groups.
Program Outcomes
Participants gain increased confidence and self-awareness alongside improved physical literacy. They develop a stronger understanding of mental health and addictions, and are exposed to entrepreneurship and positive role models. The program also strengthens cultural pride and identity.
From the Community
“Big shout out to Justin & Cole for coming to our community and training us for fitness and boxing. You guys motivated me, believing in us and pushing us, when I didn’t even believe in myself… I really appreciate your time, travelling so far to come here.”
