How much does it cost?

The introductory price of the workshop is $149. This price is offered only for a limited time and is expected to increase to $250 after the first few introductory workshops. To take advantage of this introductory price SIGN UP TODAY. Do not wait! The price increase is guaranteed and you will lose out on this incredibly low investment.

A cost comparison:  My normal fee is $250 an hour for one one one coaching. A new performance bowling bowl will cost you from $100 to $350 and a quality pair of shoes $50-$120. Comparably, the investment is quite small when you consider these skills will last you a lifetime, increasing in value the more you put them into use. That's if you only used these concepts when bowling, as you take the next step and consider that these skills will transfer to other areas of your life, investing in training your brain is a sound investment.

Why is this workshop so inexpensive?

The classroom setting is a more effective delivery system. It is easier on me so I pass along the savings. The $149 is an introductory price and will only be offered for a limited time. This is the first time these skills are being offered to the public as applied to bowling. Since this is a brand new workshop, and I am looking for a core group of participants to document the improvement over time. This material is high quality, and I guarantee a performance increase using these methods or your money back.

Participants will be expected to give:

  • Testimonials: I want an email, a note, a phone call, or a letter telling about the improvement in your game

  • Feedback: I expect feedback about the presentation and how I can polish it for future workshops

What is the basic principal behind this workshop?

Have you ever noticed how one day you'll be on top of your game, on top of the world. A mental state of mind where you can do no wrong and everything happens easily and without apparent effort? You are playing in the Zone.

Then the next day, or maybe even the next game you can do nothing right, every little victory is a major effort, you're game is just off.

This training is about accessing your best game state of mind on purpose instead of by happenstance and making the process a valuable part of your performance tool chest. Utilizing your own sense memory and scientific principals you learned in the 8th grade we can create a "trigger" that you can access at will. If you have ever bowled a strike, if only once, you have the sense memory to repeat the performance over and over again. When I first, applied the mental techniques I teach, I actually used a visual memory of watching a guy bowl a perfect 300 game on Saturday afternoon television and "installed" the experience in my biocomputer. I can teach you to do the same.

How long will the training last?

Approximately 4-5 hours. Why do you say it only took you 15 minutes to change your game? Well, I did have the benefit of knowing the mental techniques necessary and had used them for years. I just had never applied it to bowling, that application took my about 15 minutes.

Is it hard to learn?

Actually you'll be surprised how simple the entire process is. We take skills you already possess on some level and enhance them. I offer a way to access your own internal suxsess system consciously on demand.

The conscious effort is only apparent in the beginning . Just like learning to tie your shoes. In the beginning it felt a little awkward, but now you can do it without a second thought. If you can learn to tie you shoes, you can learn these techniques.

Who is this program designed for?

This program is not designed for beginner bowlers. I expect the participants to have some history bowling. I do not teach bowling technique. I teach powerful mental skills and show you how to apply them to bowling.  While the mental game always plays a factor, the stronger your game already is technically, the bigger role mental skills play  in your performance.

Back to Top

How long will these skills last?

All your life and only appreciate with use. A side benefit is that the peak performance skills will find their way into other parts of your life.

Back to Top

What is your bowling experience?

Virtually none. I am over 40 years old and have bowled less than 40 times in my life. Not even once a year and have sometimes gone years in between bowling outings. The important point is not my bowling skill, but my ability to create a quantum leap in performance though a shift of attention and mind. There are aspects of my game that are inconsistent because frankly I don't bowl enough. Practice does make perfect and if my game is to improve I would still have to practice more.

Before applying these techniques, my scores had been all over the map and I would typically average between 80 and 124. 20 years ago, I bowled an all-time high of 176 which stood as the pinnacle of my achievement. It was a fluke because the other games I bowled that night were right around 100. Once I applied these techniques to my game my score has consistently been over 200. I expect your results to be more profound than mine.

While I do not have much bowling background, I do have background in performance research and mental technique. This is what I teach. If you have a brain, you can improve your game.

Exactly what do you teach in this course?

  • How we create experience
  • Modeling past performance and replicating it
  • How to create a trigger to reconnect with a peak state on demand
  • How to access and play in the Zone
  • A Soviet mental training technique that will actually install the peak performance in your mind like software in a computer.
  • How to use affirmations (self talk) and how to structure them for maximum value. Avoiding the "critical voice"
  • How to use natural trance techniques
  • A self hypnotic routine to enhance and deepen your mental training

Is this just hypnosis or sports psychology?

No. While The principals of hypnosis and the use of your personal trance talked about it is a small part of the overall workshop. It is not just sports psychology. Sports psychology utilizes cognitive behavior techniques.

This program is a blend of hypnosis, martial arts, Neurolinguistic Programming, Zen, accelerated learning principals, biochemistry research and Soviet Sports Training techniques. This program is totally unique.

How did you decide to apply these techniques to bowling?

Bowling appealed to me for a couple of different reasons which allow it to be the ideal test environment:

  1. The sport is individualistic. Meaning that you only really compete against yourself and don't have to factor in the performance of teammates.
  2. The outside influences that effect performance are limited. There's not an extraordinary number of variables to consider, aside from oil conditions the only real unknowns are the bowler. This allows us to deal with the performance of the athlete
  3. You have immediate feedback as to how you are doing. Change a little aspect of your performance and you know immediately that your either doing better or worse.

Another sport of similar qualities is dart throwing. I applied these techniques the first time I ever played. I was invited to a house party when the only real activity was a dart game. Not wanting to sit out, I asked the best player there how to hold the dart, along with the little nuances and beliefs I needed to do well. Modeling my performance after this tournament dart player I was able to play right along with him all night. There was constant chatter about my "beginner's luck" and that I was playing unconscious. Well, the second part was true. Since I really didn't know how to score at first, or what points I needed to strategically aim for, I asked. It got a little annoying to the others when I asked every time what did I need to aim for, the went ahead and hit it.

What is the Zone?

The Zone is a term common in the sports world to describe a state of mind and body that transcends normal everyday consciousness. Performance is unconscious, time slows down and the athlete feels as it they can do no wrong. Most athletes compete only for the opportunity to experience this state of mind as a reward unto itself.

Traditionally, after it's experienced you'll find athletes attempting to recreate it by developing superstitious rituals such as always eating the same meal, wearing the same lucky socks or clothes, or some other thing outside them selves.
