Racquet Torques
Racquet Torques is played with tennis racquets, think Tennis and Badminton have a baby and you have Racquet Torques. It's harder than Pickleball, but easier than Tennis. You can set up a FlyZone practically anywhere, Beach (Rocky likes the Beach best), grass and even on hard surfaces! Check out our Timer Scoring on the Torques App!! Link below.
Torques Toss
Toss is much like Horseshoes or Cornhole with scoring that's as easy as 1,2,3! It's fun to play for all ages. Our Toss Birds take flight with a spin and are easy to grasp for small hands making Toss easy for everyone young and old. Torques Toss is super portable and can be played almost anywhere. Similar to Cornhole, but a hole lot better! Our new Torques App includes Toss 1,2,3, scoring 1st Bird is worth 1 point, 2nd Bird is worth 2 and 3rd Bird is worth 3 the "Money Bird"
We have a mindfulness mode on the App to "Let Go and Grow!" Please see the Armed Torques page below for more info.
Torques Therapy Mind Health~ Teaching the Triangle to "Toss your troubles to let go and grow"
My name is Scott Thomas Peterson, inventor of Torques Games and Torques Therapy. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Torques Therapy incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and the CBT Triangle concept into our Torques Sports Game set. The Triangle represents how our Thinking affects our Feelings which affects our Behavior and vice versa. Our Shuttlecock "Birds" come in sets of 3 birds with each bird having an individualized characterization with a Thinking Bird, a Feeling Bird and a Behavior Bird which represent the 3 points of the CBT Triangle. I believe this is the first time a sports game set has a mind health concept baked into the physical products.
Torques Therapy is a set of coping skills and processes that borrows from research supported Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to teach the Triangle using Movement, Mindfulness, Music and Art that integrates with our fun Torques Toss and Pitch Torques games to create Torques Therapy. Understanding the Triangle helps people unpack Twisted Thinking, Funky Feelings and Bad Behavior to let go and grow as we toss our troubles, take a swing at something new and let it rest in the bird's nest! Where do you want to go and what needs to grow? We help people develop a growth mindset to "Find the Opportunity" embracing Terrific Thinking that fosters Fabulous Feelings and Beneficial Behavior.

We pair music with movement to Breathe
This video is a part of our Torques Therapy program that introduces the B.A.T. using music as memorable way to teach Belly Breathing. We use the CBT Triangle and arm movement to move out of stinking thinking into our bodies to feel ourselves breathing deeply. Use your BAT so you don't go "bat poop crazy"
Heart Arm Triangle Guided Meditation
Put a HAT on and do a pledge of allegiance to your heart using movement as we arm you with a gratitude process. Our HAT helps you connect with your Heart wisdom and come from the Heart. This Guided Meditation can be a powerful coping skill to help you slow down and be more heart centered.

Ancient Torques found in France!
Torques were popular with Celts, Vikings, Romans, and Greeks from around the 8th century BC to the 3rd century AD and symbolized bravery, esteem, and royal authority. We have reinvented the ancient game of Torques into a Toss Game and Racquet Sport along with Mind Health Tools promoting self esteem development. Here's a Map of Ancient Torques found in France.
