Train your mind to perform when it matters most
Evidence-based mental performance training for athletes and esports competitors who want to stay focused under pressure, recover faster from setbacks and perform consistently when it counts.
Apply for the Elite Mind Core Program
We’re opening a limited number of places for athletes and esports competitors to join our 8-week evidence-based mental performance program.
Through practical mindfulness training, expert coaching and HRV-based insights, you’ll develop greater focus, resilience and emotional control — helping you stay composed and perform at your best when it matters most. The program will be scientifically evaluated to assess its impact on your mental performance and well-being.
The mindfulness system that we are teaching has been the subject of research at the following universities:
Our Approach
We combine a rigorous, science-based foundation in Sports Science with deep expertise in mindfulness and systemic coaching to help people build mental clarity, emotional stability, and genuine performance capacity. We track progress through physiological HRV (heart rate variability) data alongside your own experience, so growth isn't just felt — it's measured. As an independent practice, we work with you directly and personally, through individual guidance shaped around your goals, whether in your sport or esports. We work together flexibly, online or in person, based on what suits you best.
Train Your Mind Like You Train Your Body
Mental performance isn't luck or talent — it's a trainable skill. Through evidence-based mindfulness training and HRV tracking, we help athletes and esports players build focus, clarity, and composure that hold up under real pressure.
In-Person and Digital Options
We're based in Lisbon, but we work mostly remotely — so no matter where you are, distance isn't a barrier. Prefer to meet in person? We're happy to arrange that when possible. Can't make it in person? No problem — our training and coaching sessions are also available fully online.

Recovery
„Before working with Elite Mind, I thought mental performance training was mostly hype. I was wrong. The tools were specific — catching tilt before it wrecked my next three rounds, staying locked in through a long scrim block, resetting fast after a bad call instead of carrying it into the next fight. My teammates noticed the difference before I did. This isn't fluff — it's training, the same way I train mechanics, and it's shown up directly in my results.“
