“Nick has a broad knowledge of Sport Psychology and Hypnosis alongside a large amount of experience working in the field. He is very thorough and helpful in applying the theory into practice and getting the most out of the material. I would highly recommend him & his courses.”
Stuart Wade - 4 x World Champion Taekwondo and Kickboxing

“I did Nick Davies’ “Sports Performance Mind Coaching” Diploma today over Skype, I really enjoyed it, I learned a lot.

I am really looking forward to using his methodology and I am confident that I’ll be able to coach (Dutch) Sportsmen and women to achieve a higher level of performance.”

Leon Philips (Netherlands)

“Great course, good content, great level of detail, answered all my questions.”
Julie Gilby - Hypnotherapist

“Nick is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about his subject. His experience of working with top athletes really shines through in this course and I recommend it to anyone who is planning to work with sports people. Nick’s delivery is focussed and fun with the emphasis on practical tools that you can take away and use immediately.”
Chris Sutcliffe - Hypnotherapist

“The course is well structured with a fantastic mix of both ‘academic’ and (perhaps, more importantly) ‘hands on’ content; lots of opportunity to practice the theory, work with different people and make mistakes (and laugh and learn from them) in an understanding environment. The depth of knowledge and experience of Nick is impressive – and the course is all presented in a relaxed manner ‘peppered’ with anecdotes and real life experiences. An enjoyable as well as very educational course. I’d recommend it.”
Roy Slater GQHP, Dip.CHH, Ddip.SCT, Cert.NLPS

“Fantastic course, thoroughly enjoyed the weekend and learnt so much. Would recommend Nick & his training”
Louise Cousin - Hypnotherapist

“As an NLP Master Prac & Life Coach it’s always great to watch other people work, Nick is up there with the best.

Nick is so passionate about his subject it can’t help but enthuse the attendee. There were plenty of techniques, practise but as importantly FUN!

I have no hesitation in highly recommending Nick – Work with him you won’t regret it!”

Bob Brennan - NLP Master Practitioner

“Hi Nick, Just a wee note to again commend you on your course.

I’ve worked with sports pros and amateurs for many years, I believe to truly give your clients the best possible service you have to constantly educate yourself and learn from others.

Last year I was consulting with the manager of an SPL (Scottish Premier League) club who were on a poor run. In talking with this manager (whose job was on the line), I was reminded of your comments about how coaches / trainers (I think you referred to boxers) could inadvertently negatively impact their guys by how they spoke to them. The manager freely admitted that he was guilty of this, we spent a little time on how he could reframe his comments in the positive. The result, within 24 hours of our conversation, his team won their first game in months and went on to win their next 5 games!”

Tony Reilly Director MBA MREC MAEPH PBH GQHP

Simon Goodlad - Hypnotherapist

“As usual Nick has taken a subject close to his heart and transformed the learners into potentially very good Sports Performance Coaches. Fab couple of days.”
Gordon Park - Hypnotherapist

“An excellent course for all abilities. I am a Hypnotherapy student and this has given me bags of confidence and the motivation to go out and do it.”
