Mental performance coaching for surfing

In surfing you share the stage with the ocean, which cannot be trained or controlled. As a mental performance professional, I help you handle fear after a bad hold-down, compete in a heat without freezing and choose your waves with confidence.

What we work on most in surfing.

Mental performance work for surfers trains your relationship with fear, patience and confidence in the water.

Fear of big waves

You paddle toward the set and something stops you before you go.

The hold-down

A wave kept you under too long and since then you paddle out with doubts.

Heat nerves

Twenty minutes, judges and a mind that will not let you choose well.

Choosing the wave

You hesitate, let it go and the heat ends.

Frustration in the water

One bad session and it feels like you are not improving.

Coming back from injury

Your shoulder or knee has healed, but your confidence in the water has not.

What we train

Your mind, at the level of your game.

Some of the things we can work on:

  • Managing fear and breathing in the water
  • Rebuilding confidence after a hold-down
  • A mental routine for competition heats
  • Decision-making and wave selection
  • Confidence after an injury
