Nerves hit, no matter how good someone is. It’s important to know that being nervous does not mean that a performer has stage fright or performance anxiety. If a performer prepares their mindset and techniques for the fact that nerves will hit before a performance, then their true talent can show up on stage. But, most performers do not prepare for the nerves. They walk off stage or out of an audition knowing that their talent was better than the performance they just gave. They were missing a piece in their training and it showed.

PRACTICE-POLISH-PERFORM® uses Vocal Coach Christina’s signature P3 METHOD to train youth performers how to prepare for performance nerves. Performing under pressure is a skill that must be trained. This skill is often the deciding factor that determines whether or not a performer lands the lead role, becomes the principal dancer, wins the first chair or nails their callback and is cast in a film. At high levels, small distinctions become the determining factor. Performance Pressure Mastery is a skill that gives performers the edge they are likely missing, because this skill is not being trained well in the performing arts.
