What is SPP?
Today, achieving peak performance involves more than reaching peak physical fitness. Potential isn’t realized by chance, and we know that natural ability is only part of the equation. The field of sport and performance psychology focuses on providing every performer the resources to power their inner edge by strengthening the ability to perform, as well as the ability to thrive.
At Transpire Performance, we work together to strengthen your mindset, so when challenging days occur, you will have the necessary resources in place to provide you with the ability to effectively navigate the less than desirable moments.
A common misconception is that sport and performance psychology exists only to help elite athletes win. In reality, sport and performance psychology professionals support people at every age and across a variety of performance contexts, including the following:
Sport (athletes and coaches)
Exercise (persons of all ages and activity levels)
Tactical (military, firefighters, police)
Performing Arts (dancers and musicians)
Business (executives)
Effective practice in the field of sport and performance psychology involves the use of evidence-based approaches, methods, and interventions. It also includes a consideration of relevant cultural variables that may be impacting one’s experience. Although there are many potential intervention targets (e.g., goal setting, concentration, motivation, relaxation, imagery), the general objective is to teach mental skills necessary to perform consistently.
