What the
webinar is
about
Coaching Mental Blocks is a practical webinar for coaches and support staff working with athletes who struggle with pressure, confidence, overthinking, or performance anxiety. The session reframes mental blocks as protection patterns rather than character flaws and explores common signs that athletes are getting stuck, such as fear of mistakes, loss of rhythm, emotional shutdown, and difficulty transferring practice performance into competition. Attendees will learn a repeatable coaching framework, recognize, respond, and rehearse, along with simple tools like helpful language, goal-setting, imagery, and feedback strategies to better support athletes through pressure. The goal is to help coaches move athletes through pressure, not around it, with more clarity, connection, and confidence.
