Workshop Optimal Performing
04 Februar 2010
Mental training for musicians. How to mentally prepare for a concert or an audition, how to overcome stage fear or anxiety.
Not only talent, technical skills or musicality enlarge your performing succeses, but also mental power and mental resistance of the musician determine his or her top achievement.
In sports, the relation between fears and accomplishment and between concentration and distraction has been psychologically investigated for decades. Every athlete nowadays is escorted by mental coaches and even in business mental coaches are seen everywhere.
Therefore it's strange that musicians still have to take care of their menatl status themselves.
As well as practicing every day on your flute, it is important to also train your mental skills, in order to really get the very best out of yourself.
What can be achieved in sports, should also be able in music! It's proven to work!
The workshop during the Flute Festival is mainly focussed on dealing with performance anxiety and to learn how to switch between attention
