In sports and in life, CONNECTION is as important as everything else put together.
When we believe that control is the only way to stay safe or escape a trap, it's easy to fall into the mindset that we need to achieve perfect alignment, with each element working together seamlessly. However, this perspective restricts everyone involved to merely the sum of their individual contributions.
We provide an immersive experience of being part of something that is greater than the sum of the parts. To embody a **Gestalt of connection**.
We don’t access a Gestalt by following instructions. We achieve this level of connection by observing and copying those in the Gestalt we wish to join, and processing the entirety of the experience so that we embody the Gestalt. It is easier to access a Gestalt when someone is shaping it for us.
HOW TO SHAPE A GESTALT - think Steph Curry and Antoine Dupont
1. Clarity. Ensure that the next move is apparent to everyone
2. Patience. Wait to see how everyone reacts
3. A Sense of Calmness. If the chosen move can’t be executed, stay calm, and allow another move of clarity to unfold.
The ability to experience genuine connection is a crucial life skill for the 21st century

We mainly use basketball to coach space, time, and timing. For those Wow moments. Players lift their perception of space, time, and timing to a level beyond what is possible with sports coaching alone. And achieve performance that is a lot higher than their individual attributes and skills allow.

______________________
We mainly coach space, time, and timing using a version of basketball where the importance of technique, speed and strength is turned down and the importance of space, time, and timing - is turned up. The skills are very transferable to other sports as well as normal basketball. To life in general.
Click here to learn how games coaching takes space, time, and timing beyond where just sports coaching can go.
