Stage Fright.Before you go on, you're switched on, not frozen.

A few butterflies before a performance are normal, you know that. What keeps you up for days beforehand and knots your stomach shut is something else, and it has a physical address.

What it is

Stage fright is a physical alarm state before a performance that goes way beyond the buzz of normal nerves. In its heavy form it starts days in advance and you can't breathe or think your way out of it. It's not weak willpower, it's a nervous system reaction, and pushing through it can actually make it worse.

Sound familiar?

Three days before the concert it's already sitting in your stomach and you can barely eat.
The night before you wake up every hour, doing the math on how many hours are left.
Backstage your hands are ice cold while the rest of you is burning up.
You've rehearsed the speech a hundred times and it still drains out of you in the dressing room.
The second the performance is over it all crashes, and you wonder why it has to be this brutal every single time.

Why more of the same won't fix it.

Your nervous system doesn't tell the difference between real danger and a performance. If it reads the stage as a threat, it flips into full alert long before you go on, and no amount of preparation switches it back off. That's why more practice sometimes makes it worse.

This overload doesn't live in your skill or in your setlist. It sits in a specific spot in your body that you can feel, and that's exactly where it becomes solvable.

The way out: one session.

1

Find your desired feeling

We start with the feeling you want to have on stage, not with the fever beforehand. Often it's a grounded calm in your heart space, one where the excitement is still allowed to be there without steamrolling you.

2

Locate the block, don't explain it

Your Guide doesn't ask why performances hit you so hard. She just asks where in your body the fever sits right now, and your body finds the spot on its own, no backstory needed.

3

Release it and anchor it for 40 days

That's where the tension releases, and you don't have to go through the whole fever again to get there. You lock in the new feeling afterward with the app, for 40 days, 90 seconds morning and night.

Common questions.

I need some nerves for my performance. Are you going to take that away?
No. The energizing tension can stay, it's part of a good performance. We only work on the part that already wipes you out days beforehand.
Do I have to talk about my past?
No, not a single word about the past. The work happens in the here and now, at the spot your body points to.
Does one Session really cover it?
Mostly, yes. Around 1,000 people have released in one Session what had blocked them for a long time.
Is this therapy?
No. We don't do psychotherapy. FIVE MOVES works through the body and stays with the one thing you came in with.

What holds you back has an address.
