Mental Toughness Training Courses for Athletes
Course 1: Mastering Pressure
The “Whole Champion’s” way
Champions aren’t immune to nerves, anxiety, or doubt—they feel them just like you. What sets them apart is their skill in mastering these emotions and thriving under pressure.
In this course, you’ll discover:
- Techniques to Manage Doubt, Nerves, and Negativity
Learn how to turn moments of hesitation into opportunities to showcase your skills. - Transforming Negative Pressure into Positive Power
Uncover the secrets of staying focused and grounded, converting pressure into a driving force for success. - Peak Performance When It Counts
Apply techniques to access your best self and perform at your peak in high-stakes situations.
Course 2: Tuning into the “ZONE”
Tools of “Whole Champion’s”
We need to develop our own unique champion toolkit to be able to master pressure in the long term as well as having the skill to slip into the zone when it counts. The zone is the extra ordinary state of breaking records, winning trophies and achieving your dreams and goals.
- You will receive a champion toolkit for confidence, consistency and enjoying your sport.
- You will learn skills to improve focus and accuracy in practice and competition.
- Mastering The “Champion Toolkit” will give you more opportunities to move into “THE ZONE”, expressing your full potential and raising your game.
How the courses work
Each Module is unique and therefore can be done at different times. One does not have to complete modules in a specific order. Mastering Pressure is recommended to be done if possible, at the beginning of the program. However this is not an absolute.
Our courses are conducted by experts in the fields of sport and performance psychology. Media presentations and task sheets will be handed out at each session. We encourage voluntary sharing during sessions. This is optional as the courses focus on looking at one-self.
Our courses can be adjusted for different age groups as well as for adults, parents and coaches if required.
