We make those fleeting moments of uncoachable inspiration - happen more often
We show players that those fleeting moments of uncoachable inspiration are connections that create something greater than the sum of the parts, a phenomenon known as Gestalt. Gestalt is a commitment to succeed by exploring the unknown together, knowing this provides more time to perfect parts. Gestalt can be trained.
We train Gestalt by stopping players from addressing what metrics indicate is broken, so that they put all attention on the dynamic connections between all parts. We show players how to wait for opportunities to offer previously unseen alternatives as someone’s options begin to dwindle. And if nothing appears, look for something else. Coaches use what the metrics indicate is broken to design problems for the players to solve.

About the event
Flow state training helps players to sync their flow so that they don't need to force something to happen by sprinting up and down the court, and taking one pass and shooting. It’s important to note that players who do this are not bad players; they are simply out of sync with their team's flow.
Players are trained to sync their flow by paying attention to the relationships of connection between everything around them and take an action. To pause to see how that affected the relationships of connection, and then take another action, and so on. Everything becomes timeless, natural, and effortless as players fit fragments of the parts seamlessly together in different and unfolding ways, without the sensation of active thought. Performance is simply the result of allowing flow to happen so that something we could not have known before appears—a Wow moment.
