NEW PERSPECTIVES

Sports psychology deals with all fields of sports activity. At the same time holistic coaching considers the human being as a whole with all its resources.

The integrative approach incorporates different techniques from sport psychology, personality theory, motivational and brain research, pedagogical and psychological practice and tennis.  

The coaching is aimed at different target groups such as the athletes, the environment, the coaching crew and the entire coaching group (Train the Trainer or Coach the Coach).

People are supported in developing their self-control skills.

Professional and athletic performance is based not only on physical factors, but also on mental abilities. Athletes describe competitive situations as something unpredictable and uncontrollable. Mental preparation in combination with supporting techniques are essential for healthy and successful performance. We can work together to ensure that you are ready to compete with a good sense of well-being.

“The expectations of the boys are huge, and they have risen significantly again in recent years. Accordingly, there is a greater demand for psychological support... Having time is the biggest challenge in my work with the players.

The players have hardly any peace to process their impressions. Their everyday lives are fully clocked. And their own and others expectations are high.”

Prof. Dr. Hans-Dieter Hermann, former Psychologist DFB
