Description

Gymnastics is one of the most mentally and physically demanding sports—and fear can show up anywhere, not just at meets. You can train perfectly one day and suddenly “lose” a skill the next. You can feel confident on beam in practice, only to freeze during competition. These moments aren’t just “mental blocks”—they’re full-body stress responses that can hijack performance, both in the gym and on the floor.

The Gymnastics Essentials Package combines three transformative programs—Gymnastics with the Competitive Edge, Sticking It, and 30 Days of Radical Mindset Shifts for Gymnasts—to help gymnasts overcome fear, rebuild confidence, and regain lost skills with calm and composure.

By pairing Dr. G’s world-renowned mental training system with Sara Vatore’s body-based, somatic practices, this package addresses both the mind and the nervous system—helping gymnasts understand what’s happening in their body and learn to work with it instead of fighting against it.

Whether you’re struggling with fear in practice, balking mid-skill, or freezing under competition pressure, this training gives you the mental, emotional, and physiological foundation to move through fear, restore consistency, and rediscover joy in your sport.

What You’ll Learn

With the Gymnastics Essentials Package, you’ll learn how to:

Understand why fear and balking happen—and what to do to get your skills back
Learn how to boost confidence in practice and at meets
Stay calm and composed under big-meet and in-gym pressure
Let go of perfectionism, comparison, and self-criticism
Develop the mental and physiological tools to rewire fear responses
Cultivate lasting focus, resilience, and self-trust
Train yourself to concentrate like a champion
Quickly let go of mistakes and disappointments
Use imagery to properly prepare for upcoming meets

The Bottom Line

The Gymnastics Essentials Package helps gymnasts understand the root of their fear, move through it, and perform with confidence—in practice, in meets, and everywhere in between.

It provides the foundation for training and competing with calm focus, self-trust, and freedom—with mind and body working together in harmony.

Testimonials

A real breakthrough book for athletes! … I was able to put the breakthrough therapy of `brainspotting’ to immediate use with my clients and the results were spectacular! … The authors wrote this book so that athletes could also benefit. … I recommend this not just for therapists who work with athletes, but for athletes themselves!

I was listening to your “Parents” audio today on my drive and I have to say it opened my eyes! Especially the part where you talk about “good” and “bad” nervous. What a life skills gift to teach parents how to teach their kids how to roll with the “juice” that naturally comes up as you’re about to perform! The “Juice” is normal, it is what will fuel you. Don’t fear “The Juice” embrace it. Such a great audio! Thank you.

Thanks so much! I finally learned how to get my parents on the same page that I’m on. They’re actually helping me now! Go Figure! It has made things so much much easier for me to do my job. I think this is a critically important book for coaches in any sport.

Jack

Congratulations on your program, “14 Steps!” They are truly outstanding and thoroughly cover all the mental aspects of sports which are challenging to athletes and coaches. We are using them this year as part of our weekly training program and the kids love your stories and teachings!

Ken S.

Your new program has really helped both of my kids even though they are in different sports! My daughter used to get too nervous before she played and she told me how much more relaxed and focused she feels now and I can see it in her level of confidence and success on the field. My son had a long history of doing better in practice than competition, leaving him frustrated and us not knowing how to help him. What a difference I see in him now when he competes under pressure. Thanks so much — you’re a great teacher!

I have downloaded your 14 Steps to Mental Toughness and have been listening to them with my son. I must say that it is having a very positive impact on both of us!! We live in the UK where this type of science is not well known, but now I am persuaded by it! I am so grateful that I discovered your work as my son is only 17 so has plenty of time to benefit.

Mohammed

Dr. G, I just finished reading This is Your Brain On Sports and I absolutely loved it! It opened my eyes to what really causes athletes to fall apart and it will help me be more effective with my players!

Frank

I want to thank you for your amazing program, (Gymnastics With The Competitive Edge)! Two months ago, when I reached out to you, my daughter was done with gymnastics. She wanted to quit because she did not feel she would ever do her skills again. She was tired of being yelled at and tired of crying each day at the gym. Yesterday she had her meet and she placed 4th on floor with a 9.350!!!! The change that has come over her from using your program is astounding! She uses it not only with her gymnastics but in everything she does!

Monica

I have a 10-year-old gymnast and your audio program is fantastic. She has always struggled with her fears.My kid actually comes home from practice happy now since she’s been listening. With gratitude.

Dina

My daughter has not put down Sticking It since it arrived! She continues to say, “That’s me mom. This Dr. G guy gets me!” She looks forward to going to practice and is actually having fun again!. They have helped my daughter tremendously with her fears and balking!

A relieved mom

Your book helped me keep my head on straight at meets. I am off to college this year on a gymnastics scholarship and I can say that one of the reasons for this is the mental toughness skills I learned in Sticking It that I have been using for the last 7 years! I’m so grateful to you for this book.

Lauren F

Dr. G! Ellie won State Champion on beam! She said it was your book Sticking It and the audios! She told me that she imagined herself at her home gym as she competed and was calm and composed! Thank you! Thank you! Thank You!

Alex

I can’t thank you enough for your program! Yesterday, my daughter did her first back handspring since “losing” it this summer. Today, she did her first round off, back handspring connection since “losing” it this past spring. Both accomplishments literally brought her to shaking tears. I can’t tell you what this has done for her- February 2014 she was doing several back handsprings with beautiful form and connection along with her round off, back handspring, back tuck. For whatever unknown reason, she “lost” them in March. It has been such a painful time for my husband and I to watch her be so sad and to watch her ask “why” she couldn’t do the skills that once came so easily to her. She was lacking in “mental toughness” as you call it. She is gradually gaining in that area, all thanks to your program and her willingness to persevere. She said last night that Santa came early and helped her get her skills back. Magical gifts come in magical ways. Thank you so much for your quick email reply a few weeks ago.

Talk about giving my gymnasts a healthy attitude to take to their meets. Your mental toughness book has done just that and given my gymnasts an edge. My kids are more confident and self-assured when they compete and I know it’s because of the mental training sessions we run using your book.

Ricky G

Your fears & block audio’s have turned my kids around in days! The concentration and championship thinking audio program has really helped my kids break away from the break and get those extra tenths. They go to meets with a healthy attitude and an extra level of confidence.

RG

When I reached out to you, my daughter was done with gymnastics. She did not feel she would ever do her skills again. She was tired of being yelled at and tired of crying each day at the gym. Yesterday she had her Virginia State meet and she placed 4th on floor! Thank you for your audios!

Sonia

I have been using your MP3’s to help one of my 10 year old gymnasts overcome her fear of the high bar. She had not been able to jump and even hold on to the high bar. She is able to now able to complete her routine The whole gym is inspired. Thanks again

Maria

I TRULY appreciate your materials. They have helped my daughter tremendously with her fears and balking! I can’t begin to tell you how grateful we are for your help! I now have a daughter who smiles after gym practice. Hadn’t seen that in a long time!

Nancy

We purchased your Gymnastics Audio series for my son who is a level 6 gymnast. He was completely blocked on his round off back handspring back tuck and was starting to crumble at meets. I found your audio series and downloaded it to his iPad. He religiously listened to it and I saw a weight lifted off of his shoulders when he realized that his block was real and that all kinds of gymnasts suffer from them. This past weekend, I saw a confidence in him that I have never seen. Even having just turned 9, he sat by himself concentrating on the next event, and he nailed everything to the best of his abilities! I have given his coach the links to your website in hopes that he’ll share it with the other coaches and gymnasts on the team. I’m wholeheartedly pleased with the audio’s and the completely different gymnast I saw this past weekend. Thank you so much!

My daughter is an 11 year old competitive gymnast and facing some mental blocks on her back tumbling, skills she has performed for years. After gym today she mentioned that she use to feel like just giving up and quitting. I’m so glad I found your audios. She is back to her old self again!
