The work is there. Now make sure your performance shows it.

The Challenges:

You train hard. You prepare. You do what’s asked of you. But when the pressure rises, performance doesn’t always match the work you’ve put in. Maybe your body tightens, your timing feels off, or your focus narrows too much. It’s frustrating to know you’re capable of more and not fully understand why execution slips in the moments that matter most.

You may notice it most in competition—when expectations are high and the margin for error is small. Overthinking replaces instinct. Confidence wavers. Recovery between plays or events takes longer than it should. You’re not lacking discipline or motivation; you’re dealing with how pressure changes your system in real time, often faster than you can consciously adjust.

This is where training needs to go beyond effort and strategy. When you learn how to regulate your response to pressure, stay adaptable, and recover quickly, your performance becomes more consistent and reliable. The work you’ve already done starts to show up when it counts—because your system is trained to support execution, not get in the way.

Precision Performance:

Dan’s coaching helps you train the parts of performance that don’t show up in drills but decide outcomes under pressure. Sessions focus on how your nervous system responds in real time—so you can stay calm, focused, and adaptable when the intensity rises. Instead of pushing harder or relying on surface-level mindset strategies, you learn how to keep your system steady enough to execute what you already know how to do.

This work targets the internal blocks that interfere with execution—whether that shows up as overthinking, hesitation, tension, or slow recovery after mistakes. By increasing your capacity to regulate stress and recover quickly, performance becomes more consistent across competitions, not just on “good days.” The goal isn’t to suppress pressure, but to respond to it with control and precision.

Over time, athletes build reliable access to their best performance state without forcing it. Confidence improves because it’s grounded in control, not effort alone. Recovery gets faster, focus becomes sharper, and performance holds up when demands are high. The result is execution that reflects your preparation—and performance you can trust when it matters most.

What Sets the Precision Performance Lab Apart

We Train the System,
Not Just the Mind

You don’t just think your way through pressure—you respond with your whole system. This work trains how your body and nervous system actually perform when stakes are high.

Brainspotting-Informed Performance Training

Using Brainspotting-informed methods, we quiet internal interference so skills become accessible automatically—without overthinking or second-guessing.

Built for Pressure,
Not Pep Talks

If motivation alone solved this, you wouldn’t be here. Coaching focuses on execution under real pressure, not hype, affirmations, or surface-level mindset shifts.

Precision Over Effort

When pushing harder stops working, precision matters. You learn how to stay controlled, adaptable, and focused without forcing intensity.

Individualized,
Not One-Size-Fits-All

Your performance breakdown is specific to you. Coaching is tailored to how your system responds under stress, not generic protocols. The goal isn’t a great performance once—it’s reliable execution across moments, matches, and seasons.

Somatic and
Polyvagal-Informed

Pressure changes how your system operates. Training increases your capacity to regulate, recover, and perform consistently across competitive demands.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • No. This is performance coaching. While the work is informed by neuroscience and body-based principles, sessions are focused on improving execution, focus, regulation, and recovery under pressure—not treating mental health concerns.

  • These are body-based, neuroscience-informed approaches that focus on how your nervous system responds to pressure. In performance coaching, they’re used to reduce internal interference like overthinking, tension, and delayed recovery so skills stay accessible in high-stakes moments. Rather than relying on motivation or mindset alone, this work trains regulation, adaptability, and automatic execution—helping your performance hold up when it matters most.

  • No deep personal storytelling is required. Sessions stay performance-focused and work primarily with present-moment responses, body awareness, and real-time performance patterns.

  • Yes. Training regulation, focus, and recovery early can support long-term performance and reduce burnout. Sessions are adapted to age, sport, and competitive demands.

  • Many athletes notice shifts in focus, recovery, or composure within a few sessions. Like physical training, consistency over time leads to the most reliable results.
