Play In The Zone - Unlock Your Performance Opiniões 184

All the course does it get people to look for repeated patterns in songs which any Chord Progression course could do. Overhyped.

I absolute recommend the courses. Mark is a great teacher, I‘m learning a lot, and it‘s fun and inspiring!

Not very inspiring. The course did not offer me anything. Looked for the money back guarantee- no response from emails. Disappointed . Update - following this review refund has now processed

Well researched and well presented.

The course is thought provoking, inspiring, well organized and motivating. It has already made a big difference in my musical journey.

Applying Mark’s principles has changed how well I play and how I practise. The advice is simple, but unless you know it, you can’t apply it! Really glad I bought the course.

I don't think this is worth it. He talks a lot for such simple basic information. Please. Follow the example of the greats - practice makes perfect.

I’ve always been interested in the psychology of music and here it is - all organised in a comprehensive organised system. It’s also delivered in an interesting way. I’m being encouraged to address the difficulties I’m having in playing publicly and am finding ways of solving these with Mark’s advice. To top this, we have access to the material after the course ends.

I love the clarity and The organization of the course. Mark is knowledgeable and truthful and straightforward. I have been motivated to follow his recommendations.

At some stage every musician who gets up and plays in front of an audience will experience performance anxiety or ‘nerves’. It affects everyone differently but for some people it can be really debilitating and affect their ability to play anywhere near as well as they can. Performances become tests of endurance and something to be got through rather than enjoyable and fulfilling; it may even put some people off altogether.
Unlock Your Performance is a thorough, multi layered course designed to address every aspect of the causes and consequences of this problem. The 6 modules offer a complete guide to understanding the reasons why it happens and the mental preparation skills and pre performance rituals that give you the best chance of performing to your maximum. It’s a hands on course which requires full input and although some of the aspects may be new and unfamiliar at first the more you try them and get used to how they work in practice the more sense they make.
My advice would be to take the course steadily by working through the various stages and you definitely need to put in the time and effort to get the best results. There is lifetime access to the material though and each of the aspects are backed up by exercises designed to reinforce and improve these tried and trusted techniques.

Very good at pointing out all the "inner self talk " you go thru with a performance!! The different situation you are exposed to and how to mentally handle them all. Just like everything else once you start acknowledging these problems then you can start to control them by practice.. He explains how to do this!! This a must course if you are playing an instrument in front of anybody!!

Dear Mark

I’ve been wanting to write a review for some weeks. I’m a clinical psychologist but play piano non-professionally on the side. A couple of years ago I abruptly learned I suffered from HORRIFIC performance anxiety during an online piano group zoom performance class. This came as a surprise as I’ve done a lot of public speaking in the past and regard myself as someone generally confident.

Like a good psychologist, I set out to conquer my performance anxiety through loads of thought challenging and graded exposure therapy to playing in public. While this did help, after 18 months of treating myself, I was still disappointed in the results. I’d continue to feel anxious, have shaking hands and memory slips that never happened at home. I worked hard on it yet I wasn’t getting the results I expected.

To try to improve this further, I did your Unlock Your Performance program and it was a TOTAL GAME CHANGER for me. Like you said, it was devastatingly effective. While I was using traditional clinical psychology skills which were only helpful to a limited extent, you used skills and theory from sports psychology which made all the difference and gave me the results I so craved.

I had been planning my 50th birthday party for over a year, where I’d decided to challenge myself by playing difficult pieces in front of my family and friends (about 40 people). In the months and weeks leading up to the party I would lie in bed, heart pounding and stomach churning, sometimes crying, wondering why I was doing this to myself as I had had so many experiences that taught me I’m not good under pressure. I have had many derailed performances that always left me feeling disappointed and gutted.

However after completing your unlock your performance program, in the 2 weeks leading up to it (I started 5 weeks before the party), I could feel a massive and significant shift in my confidence. During rehearsals in public, I would no longer get shaky hands and my memory would be strong, sometimes stronger than when I was playing on my own at home as I was so focussed - in the zone - as you’d say.

On the day of the party, even though I had only had three hours sleep the night before and some significant external emotional stressors, I was very readily able to get into the zone and played in such a way that at times I felt immensely connected to the piano in ways I’ve never experienced. I was even able to let go and not hold back which felt amazing! I had the event professionally videorecorded and there were parts listening back that I was surprised it was actually me!

The party was a huge success and a deeply significant milestone for me in my life and I really credit your program with being able to experience this event in such a way that felt wholly satisfying. Even though I did make a couple of slips at different times, as there was so many distractions in the room that I was not able to prepare for, I was able to move forward, without the crushing disappointment that typically accompanied such slips and derailments in the past.

I wanted to thank you personally for such an excellent course. You’re an exceptional instructor and this course should be compulsory for music students at whatever level of skill and performance experience. It was worth every cent and I’d highly recommend it.

With enormous appreciation for something that has literally changed my life,
Juliette

The support from Play In The Zone specifically in the Unlock Your Performance programme is of a very high standard.

This is an excellent and very complete course for musicians to work on their mindset to unlock your full potential when performing in front of an audience. I really believe this course should be part of the curriculum of every musician! The course is very well structured and touches all the points related to foster and train the right mental skills to allow you a great performance in front of an audience. Really recommended!

This is an excellent and very complete source for musicians to work on their mindset. I’m getting a lot our of it and already seeing results. I’m only half way through. Recommended!

I am finding this course very interesting and is providing me a new look at how to practice. The emphasis is how to practice not necessarily what to practice. I’ve always known what to practice, but not how to organize and prioritize the what to practice.

Great teaching with high quality content, and support.
When you discover the full content you realise that it worth the price.

Mark Morley-Fletcher has put together a very concise, logical, detailed program for the serious musician. There is a LOT of material to absorb, but it is presented in very manageable chunks and the content is easy to reference. The course is also augmented by weekly emails, videos and additional resources. I found, and continue to find, helpful practical exercises and insights to help me in a number of areas not often addressed in musicianship.

Love the course! It was definitely was I had been looking for. I majored in piano performance for one semester in college (before switching majors) and, looking back on it, am surprised that the college never taught these critical skills. You've got to put in the work, but the course gives you a path to channel your performance anxiety into energy that will improve your musicianship.

I found Mark over YouTube, and don't have the money to sign up. Though, he offers help for free too, and that alone already has been helping me a lot! I have learned some of the things I do wrong, so I can work on that now. If you want to get better, and you can afford to sign up, you most likely will go much faster then me, and for sure you will improve if you do what is needed! Thank you Mark!! I will work on it! Much love!
