Course Aim: This course introduces participants to mindfulness enabling them to develop awareness, identify habitual thought patterns, negative self-talk, clarify their goals, develop strategies and presence for optimal performance.
This course teaches athletes essential skills to train the mind for peak performance for race conditions, team sports and training. By enhancing levels of presence and awareness to what is actually happening in the present moment, athletes have the capacity to be more responsive, not reactive, to what is happening. It enables them to garner much needed awareness to modify mental habit patterns, negative self-talk and physical technique.
Awareness is the key to modification of behaviour. Using proven techniques to develop mental discipline athletes can transfer this knowledge to all aspects of their performance both in training and in competition.

Develop the tools to be present in the moment
