What is mental skills training?
Mental skills training brings the science of Sport and Performance Psychology into real-world practice. Training sessions focus on understanding and enhancing the psychological factors that influence human performance and well-being.
Mental skills coaches apply research-based strategies to help individuals reach higher levels of performance, maintain consistency, and excel when it matters most. Whether you’re an athlete, artist, coach, executive, or first responder, these strategies help you bring your best to what you do — striving for excellence without compromising your mental or emotional wellness.

How does it work?
When participating in mental skills training, an athlete learns techniques to control and focus their mental and emotional states, which allows them to execute their physical skills more effectively and more consistently.
Mental skills training can involve learning how to stay focused and perform under pressure, navigate injuries, improve communication with coaches and teammates, conquer performance anxiety, cultivate a positive internal dialogue, and more. Learning how to work WITH your mind instead of AGAINST it can provide value at any level of competition, from beginner to professional.
