Craig Sigl – Sports Hypnosis Certification Training

Craig Sigl – Sports Hypnosis Certification Training is designed for people who want a practical way to support athletes with mental-performance work, using hypnosis-informed coaching methods that emphasize focus, confidence, and composure under pressure.

When an athlete “knows what to do” but cannot reproduce it in competition, the problem is rarely physical. It is usually attention, self-talk, and the ability to recover quickly after mistakes. This training speaks to that gap with a structured, coach-friendly approach.

If you work with athletes, performers, or competitive students, this course helps you build sessions that are clear, ethical, and repeatable, so your clients know what they are practicing and why it matters.

What is the Craig Sigl – Sports Hypnosis Certification Training course about?

This program focuses on applying hypnosis, suggestion, imagery, and performance psychology principles in a way that fits real coaching conversations. The emphasis is not on “mystique”. It is on creating reliable mental routines that athletes can rehearse, use in training, and carry into high-pressure moments.

You will explore how to identify the specific moment performance breaks down, then design interventions that target the athlete’s attention, confidence, and decision-making. The training also highlights the difference between motivation talk and actionable mental skills, so your work stays grounded and measurable.

Because athletes and parents value clarity, the course leans into language that is easy to explain: what the athlete will practice, what to do before competition, what to do after an error, and how to build consistency over time.

What will you learn?

• How to define the real performance problem in plain language, separating skill gaps from mental interference.
• How to run a solid intake and set outcome-focused goals that match the athlete’s sport and level.
• How to teach simple pre-performance routines that stabilize attention and reduce overthinking.
• How to use guided imagery and suggestion to reinforce confidence and “next play” decision speed.
• How to work with common blocks such as fear of failure, perfectionism, and doubt after mistakes, without making unrealistic promises.
• How to design practice that transfers into competition, so the athlete does not feel great only in training.
• How to communicate with parents and coaches using ethical, professional boundaries and clear expectations.
• How to create session structure that keeps progress visible through notes, checkpoints, and review.
• How to build athlete-friendly self-guided exercises that support consistency between sessions.
• How to recognize when a client needs support beyond performance coaching and how to stay responsible in your scope of practice.

Who is it for?

This training is for practitioners who want to work at the intersection of mental performance and hypnosis-based coaching, while keeping the work practical and athlete-centered.

• Hypnotists and hypnotherapists who want a sports-performance application and more confident session structure.
• Performance and mindset coaches who want stronger language tools for focus, confidence, and competitive composure.
• Sports coaches who want a clearer way to teach mental routines and reduce game-day collapse.
• Fitness and training professionals who want to add mental skills support that complements physical training.

How does it work?

You access the training through your account on our platform. This makes it easy to return to key lessons, keep your purchase history, and continue learning when your schedule allows.

To get results from the material, the best approach is practice-first. Study one skill, write your own session outline, rehearse the language, and apply it with a client or in a supervised setting. Then review what worked and refine it. That loop is what turns information into competence.

If you are building a professional service, you can also use the course concepts to create a clear offer, define a client pathway, and present your process in a way athletes and parents understand.

Benefits

• Clearer sessions that feel professional, structured, and easy to explain to athletes and parents.
• More repeatable outcomes by focusing on routines and attention control instead of vague motivation.
• Better confidence work built from practice and evidence, not hype or pep talks.
• Stronger client retention because progress is tracked and the athlete knows what to practice between sessions.
• Better differentiation if you serve a local sports community and want a specialized mental-performance offer.

Prerequisites

This training is most useful if you already have basic competence in coaching conversations and ethical client work. You do not need to be a former athlete, but you should be comfortable learning sport-specific language and routines.

• Basic understanding of hypnosis coaching or mental skills is helpful.
• A willingness to practice scripts, refine your delivery, and keep session notes.
• Professional responsibility to stay within your legal and ethical scope in your location.
