Build Your Gymnastic Confidence - With The Confidence Coach

Gymnasts - Lost Move Syndrome

Gymnastics, trampolining and diving, are sports where confidence is absolutely critical. The performer, is being asked to execute extremely complex and difficult routines, at high speed. 

If the performer, has a shred of doubt, or uncertainty, about what they are going to do, and how they are going to do it, then this can compromise their commitment to the routine. And, of course, negatively influence the outcome.

Lack of confidence, in any of these sporting disciplines, can lead to Lost Move Syndrome. That is when the performer, cannot recall a move, they may have been performing with ease, only a short period before.

Lost Move Syndrome, can be so frustrating for a performer, that without expert help, they can be forced to give up their sport.

The mind-body relationship, is so critical in these gymnastic disciplines, that any breakdown in confidence, can sever the line of trust, so vital to success.

For the last twenty four years, I have been researching confidence...what it is...where it goes when we lose it...how to regain it. Studying the best-kept secrets of the worlds most confident performers..in sport, business and politics.

I coach and lecture around the world on the enigma of confidence.

I assist gymnasts, trampolinists and divers, at all levels, desperate for help, who turn to me to regain their lost confidence. I know why we lose confidence...and more importantly how to get it back.

I have recently...

  • Helped an Olympic gymnast, who had been left out in the cold, regain his place in the national team.
  • Helped a diver who had become resigned to never being able to dive again, restore his enthusiasm for their sport. 
  • Helped a trampolinist who had been suffering from Lost Move Syndrome, recover her move in a matter of weeks.
  • Helped an experienced gymnast, who had lost her enthusiasm for the sport, secure a national title.
  • Helped a young diver who had lost confidence, not only break through and perform a personal best, but win international honours.

So - I am uniquely placed to help you back on track.

Why Is Confidence Lost?

So here are some of the top reasons which cause lost confidence;

  • When a coach constantly focuses on what a gymnast has done wrong rather than on the things they do right
  • When a gymnast loses their moves (Lost Move Syndrome) 
  • When performer develops fear of the judges
  • When the national squad drops a performer and fails to offer an explanation
  • When a performer is constantly criticised - by team-mates and management
  • When a gymnast starts comparing themselves unfavourably to others
  • When a performer loses form and doesn't know why
  • When a trampolinist starts beating themselves up, for underperforming
  • When a performer loses confidence and lack the mental strength to turn things around

Once confidence has gone, doubt and uncertainty seep in, and will soon prevail. The insecure performer, enters a phase of negative behaviour which becomes increasingly difficult to break. Fear of defeat leads to indecision, which leads to further self-doubt, which leads to failure. A cycle of failure is established.

So how best to recover confidence?

My confidence coaching is designed to help you break the lock of doubt and connect to your natural confidence. Remember - I understand why we lose confidence and more importantly how to get it back.

If you have never experienced the power of confidence coaching before, then I would like to offer you a coaching taster session.

The coaching taster is a free, no obligation 30 minute telephone coaching session with The Confidence Coach. During the session, I will listen and you will get a chance to speak to me about the negative influences that are impacting upon your natural confidence.

In return, I will offer you insights that explain why you have lost your confidence and tips to get you started, straight away, to overcoming doubt.

Following this conversation, we will design a strategy together, that will show you a clear path as to how we will beat the doubts.

So - here's an opportunity to get the coaching process moving immediately.

Please write a response to each of these questions, then send it to me using the 'Start Coaching' button at the end of the form. You will then receive an invitation from me, for your FREE Confidence Coaching session.

This is a NO OBLIGATION session, that allows you to experience the power of Confidence Coaching.

Remember - you could wait and hope that by magic, your confidence returns. But experience tells me that rarely happens. There is a reason why you have lost your confidence. The sooner we get started, the faster you will be back to your confident best.

PS - The reason this session is FREE is simple. Many of my clients would not have benefited from my coaching without first experiencing it. It is difficult to convey the power of coaching through words alone.
