English (short)

For musicians, students and high achievers dealing with the following issues:
Stage fright
Physical discomfort during practice
Mental overload
A desire for greater presence and expression
Optimising peak performance

Performance creates pressure. 
Pressure affects your system. Not just mentally, but physically:

breathing changes
tension increases
perception narrows

And that’s where you lose freedom and access to creativity.

This is not a technique problem. It’s a regulation problem.

High Performer Entry

For you, if you perform at a high level – but it’s not consistently accessible:

you know what you’re capable of, but can’t always access it
pressure changes your performance
your body reacts before you can control it

This is exactly where I work:
access to your ability – even under pressure

I work at the intersection of:

body - nervous system - performance / expression

This means: your system learns to stay stable under pressure and you regain access to your skills. Your performance becomes more natural and less forced.

Possible structure of a session

My work places a strong emphasis on self-efficacy. I see myself less as a therapist or coach, and more as a teacher. I teach you, as an equal, how to find your own way out of problems.

Depending on your concerns and objectives, we approach things differently:

Pure presentation coaching. PEP according to Dr Michael Bohne. Solution-focused. Brief intervention.

Self-esteem training & biomechanics. Work on inner and outer posture. Solution-focused, but somewhat more complex and time-consuming.

Self-esteem training & biomechanics & energetic bodywork for integration and relaxation after the work is done. Process and development work at irregular or regular intervals.

Innerwise. With the help of body feedback, we identify the relevant entry points to your challenge. Solution-focused. Short-term intervention.

Performance and recovery are not separate.

You can only perform freely, if your system is also able to come down again. That’s why we work in both directions:

Activation:
presence
expression
stability on stage

Regulation:
releasing stress
calming the nervous system
real recovery

This is for you if:

you perform (music, stage, public presence)
pressure affects your performance
you’re not looking for technique-only solutions
you want to understand what’s happening in your system

One-to-one coaching as a single session or as a complete package:

- One 90-minute session costs CHF 180
- 8-week ‘Self-Esteem & Stability on Stage’ course: CHF 1,280
- 6-week ‘Performance Coaching & Biomechanics’ intensive programme: CHF 960
- 4-week ‘Turbo PEP’ course: CHF 640

Online coaching in groups of 4–6 participants

- An 8-week course covering stage fright, self-esteem training and biomechanics costs CHF 350

Depending on your needs, we can also work anonymously. This means that nobody has to reveal their personal challenges.
