    Interesting. Yes, I think you’ll find energy regulation to be very helpful in the long run, but everything is going to be more difficult if you don’t feel confident about your preparation, and consequently your ability to play the way you know you can on demand. Practicing the right way can be hugely confidence-building, so in your particular situation it may indeed be most helpful to work through the Preparation module first (you could skip the memory stuff for now if that part isn’t as relevant).

There's an LIVE component too! (for educators)

If you’d like to explore some of the most essential skills and techniques in the course live, with a cohort of curious, thoughtful, supportive, and like-minded educators (and a few mildly irreverent or benevolently sarcastic folks mixed in to make sure we don’t get too serious), that’s also an option!

Starting Thursday, February 3rd, we’ll meet via Zoom once a week, and go through selected strategies related to effective practice, managing nerves, and achieving flow states under pressure. We’ll do some in-class playing experiments (don’t worry – you’ll be muted!), short weekly homework assignments, and small-group breakout sessions to help you integrate these new skills into your teaching.

This 6-week live course is normally $199, but is available at 50% off the regular cost when bundled with Beyond Practicing. For more details about the live course (and dates) CLICK HERE.
