THE PROGRAM

There are a number of skills identified through sports and performance psychology that can enhance performance or the ability of the performer to play their best under pressure.  This course has been developed as a performance resource for students, teachers and music educators to enable the development of core performance skills to become a standard part of musical training, embedded into lessons and practice.  The ultimate goal of the online program is not only to enhance performance but to take care of the well-being of the performer.  Building these skills into musical training early on will help prepare young musicians to deal with the unique challenges and pressures that they will inevitably face as they progress with their musical studies.

THE STUDY

An evaluation of this program (for class and individual music lessons) is being conducted as part of a PhD research study at The University of Melbourne. Participants are currently being sought to form part of a control group.
