Big feelings show up when kids care deeply about what they’re doing. Sports, dance, music, school performances—pressure can hit hard, even for confident kids. This workshop helps youth understand what’s happening in their bodies and minds when nerves take over, and gives them simple tools to steady themselves in the moment.
Designed for youth, parents, coaches, and educators, this session breaks down performance anxiety in clear, practical language. Participants learn how stress affects focus, confidence, and communication—and how to work with it instead of fighting it. We focus on skills that apply across any physical activity, from team sports to individual performance.
Youth leave with quick, usable strategies to calm nerves, reset after mistakes, and build confidence they can rely on under pressure. Parents and educators gain a better understanding of how to support without adding pressure, and how to spot when anxiety—not lack of effort—is getting in the way.
This is not about “toughening up” or pushing through fear. It’s about building mental performance skills that support resilience, teamwork, and enjoyment of movement. Research shows that teams who learn these skills report higher confidence and better communication—and kids feel more capable, not more stressed.
Custom options available for teams, schools, and youth programs. A practical, supportive workshop that helps passion and performance work together.
