    Hi Kale,

    Very cool. I’ve been wondering about VR technology for a little while now. Though I haven’t played around with it much myself, I’ve read about some NBA players/teams which have looked into it, and I do suspect that when it becomes a little more mainstream, it’ll be a useful tool.

    I know that a school in the UK has studied the effect of a virtual performance setup which simulates an audition or performance situation with video of a committee or audience that reacts in different ways to their performance, and that this seems to evoke a response in musicians.

    And ultimately, I think the simulation need not be perfect, but good enough to practice the focus/recovery/etc. skills necessary for performing optimally, so I’d love it if VR could add to the realism of the mock audition experience.

    Will check out these resources you tried out!

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.
