NLP Sport Practitioner for trainers

Do you sometimes feel frustrated while standing on the sideline?

Have you noticed that the results can vary depending on what’s at stake?

You’ve prepared your athletes but they haven’t always been able to perform at the right time?

Do you know what really drives your athlete: to win or not to lose ….?

The list is endless when it comes to situations and behaviors that limit performance in sport.

 Maybe you have similar experiences?

What degree of influence do you have on your athlete?

I would also like you to consider how you communicate, motivate and develop each of your athletes.

If you strive for progress and success as a coach, you now have the opportunity to learn even more tools that can help your athletes to avoid limiting beliefs and non productive strategies. Instead, you can teach them how to control their emotions, which in turn will improve their performance.

Our performance is very much depending on how we think about it. It’s about how we structure our thoughts and how these thoughts affect our emotions and actions. If you generate negative internal dialogues or have limiting beliefs it will affect your performance in one way or the other. Self-esteem is based on our own ideas about ourselves.

You as a coach can greatly benefit from learning more about how the brain works. Our brain is the hard drive that controls the whole “machine”. When or if the hard drive gets hacked … it’s useful to know how you can reprogram the contents in a fast and effective way. Successful sports coaches have already integrated mental training for their athletes alongside with the physical and technical work and most top athletes are working with a mental trainer on a regular basis. 

Strive for excellence – make that choice

In the NLP Sport Practitioner seminar you will learn more about the structures in the brain. You will learn practical tools that you can implement in your daily work straight away..

Psychologists are looking on what is wrong with a person – as NLP’ers we look instead at what works.
NLP is the study of successful behavior.

Based on the methods and techniques that have been developed (and still is) by Dr. Richard Bandler for over 40 years, you can learn how to master your own mind, change and improve performance and achieve results on a different level. It will give you great tools to work with both individual athletes and teams.

Here are some examples of what participants in other countries say about NLP Sport Practitioner courses:

I can say that NLP has laid the foundation for my work with elite cyclists. It gave me the tool that allows me to help them reach greater heights and go through the learning process faster than ever before.

Jurrien – Former elite cyclist and now coach

The course has made me a better listener. It gave me more insight into how I can use my own senses, to see, hear and feel what people are trying to tell me.

But also how the minds of the people I work with prefer to communicate with and how they learn. It allows me to communicate in a better way.

Maria – former tennis player and sports director

The course gives you different ways of how you can communicate with athletes about their problems and challenges, and also the tools you can give to them in order to improve their performance.

In my personal life I have now become a better listener and I’m sure I can understand people better now than before.

Dirk – former tennis player and now coach
