This is a free taster webinar introducing Xenia's "Befriending Performance Anxiety" programme aimed at composers and performers.
During the session, you will:
* Learn to recognise and reframe negative thoughts
before, during and after performance or public presentation
* Build confidence
* (Re)discover the joy of sharing your work with people
Do you engage in negative self-talk before you perform or speak in front of an audience? What about during and after your performance – does the inner critic launch into detailed analysis of failure and mistakes? Do you feel held back by self-doubt, anxiety and stage fright?
In this free webinar, we will look at five easy steps you can take right now to recognise and work with negative thoughts, build confidence and find more enjoyment, relaxation, accuracy and expressivity in your performance. Musicians and other performers of all levels of ability and experience are welcome.
When: Thursday 30 October, 6pm (UK / Ireland) – 45 minutes followed by optional Q&A (a video recording will also be available after the session).
