What is Mental Performance Training?
Research supports how the dedicated practice of Mental Performance Training can positively influence an individual's ability to focus, regulate emotions, and perform under pressure.
Mental Performance Training provides practical, evidence-based strategies and tools to help foster positive behavioural change, optimal sport performance and personal well-being.
Specifically, Applied Sport and Exercise Psychology involves the integration of theory, research and applications to educate athletes, coaches and teams on the benefits of sport-focussed mental training.
The facilitation of these mental applications via one-on-one consultations or group workshops have become some of the most sought-after services for sport and performance professionals world-wide.
