Now more than ever, coaches and athletes are recognizing the importance of developing mental
skills in order for athletes to become high performance individuals. They understand
the importance of psychological factors in sports so as to gain competitive advantage.
They need to learn how to handle competitive stress and anxiety, control positive
concentration, increase self esteem, improve communication between coaches, athletes,
and among members of the team, and learn through a psychological profile what athletes
can better perform under certain conditions.
Using the most effective psychological instrument, the NEO-PI, a very good psychological
profile can be obtained for each athlete. Using proven motivational methods, athletes and
teams will raise their level of productivity to new levels, many times surprising themselves.
How did Larry Bird become one of the biggest stars in NBA history? He was definitely one
of the greatest ... yet he wasn't the fastest, the tallest or the best dribbler.
He has a secret that changed his life and turned him into
an All Star and Hall of Famer. How can coaches apply that secret to their own
athletes?
What can a circus elephant teach you about your own limitations? This knowledge helped a
swimmer under Joachim de Posada's care to win the gold medal in the 100 meter freestyle
swimming competition in the XXI Central American and Caribbean games in El Salvador
in 2002.
Coach, what is limiting you right now? What is limiting your athletes? You will find out
when you hire Posada to speak to your team!
How does an athlete's paradigm and mental programming affect their performance?
In his interactions with your team, Posada will conduct exercises to prove to each and
every one of them what the mind can do!
