Training Entry

There are two options available. Option one is a £97 power hour. This is for riders who know they have a specific issue and would like to work through it with Alex. This is most suited to individuals who have experience of using Confidence Coaching and have a specific plan in mind. A power hour involves completing a questionnaire prior to the session detailing your aims and objectives. We will then get together either in person or online and have an intense hour together achieving your personal goals. For example you may have a goal to plan your competition season whilst keeping confidence high. This would involve a session using goal setting strategies. On the contrary you may have a specific event coming up which you feel pressure about. In this case we would spend the hour using mindset techniques to abolish the nerves and teach you a few tools to take with you to the event. Option two is £115 for one to one Rider Confidence Coaching Session. This is a fully comprehensive session involving a 1/2 hour consultation in which we discuss the problems you are currently facing in depth. After the consultation your session will be planned. We then meet for an hour and a half to work through the planned session together. As one example this might look like half an hour of coaching reframing an issue, 1/2 hour of visualisation followed by 1/2 hour of goal setting together to make sure you have a plan to follow up. As a second example a different issue might require a deep dive into the practical steps needed to improve OR as a third example a rider may need to work on core self esteem issues and would spend the time fully supported whilst working through exercises to do that.

Typical session is £115. See above for example of what is included.

Each person brings with them an individual problem. If an issue is very specific it can be resolved in one to two sessions. If the issue currently at the forefront is held in place by deeper issues which need addressing you can expect 3-5sessions. We do also offer membership options for longer term support. In our experience most clients do not fully understand there current issues with confidence and need to work out the root causes. We offer a FREE 45 strategy call which will allow you to have a clear understanding of how to get from unconfidence and unhappy to confidence and fulfilled.

NLP looks at the way your brain interprets the signals it receives and in turn how these interpretations affect your actions. If we can change your focus, we change your thoughts, we change how you feel and ultimately we change your actions. NLP can be used effectively on its own or in conjunction with other therapies as we do here at Coaching for Confidence. It is primarly used to treat phobias, but is also amazingly effective to help change negative thought patterns or create new more enticing habits!
