A live two-part webinar for musicians

Break the Loop

How to interrupt the anxiety loop before it hijacks your performance.

Two live sessions · August 2026 · Recordings included

You don't suddenly lose your ability under pressure.
Your nervous system simply switches into protection mode.

When performance pressure rises, your body braces, your breathing changes, and the very skills you've worked so hard to develop become harder to access.

It isn't because you aren't prepared.
It isn't because you lack confidence.
It's because you're caught in a loop that most musicians were never taught to recognize — much less interrupt.

In this webinar you'll learn how to Break-the-Loop: You’ll learn a practical sequence you can use in practice, rehearsals, auditions, master classes, and performance.

Instead of reacting automatically, you’ll learn how to recognize the beginning of the anxiety cycle and make different choices before tension takes over.

The Anxiety Loop

Pressure ➔ Protection ➔ Interference ➔ More Pressure

You push harder when things begin going wrong. Break the automatic sequence before it takes over.

This webinar is for you if...

  • You play beautifully in the practice room but struggle under pressure.
  • You notice your breathing, posture, or coordination change during performance.
  • You overthink or disconnect from your body onstage.
  • You push harder when things begin going wrong.
  • You know your technique is better than what shows up in performance.
Jean Applonie

Learn tools that:

  • Release protective, habitual tension
  • Improve breathing
  • Restore freedom of movement
  • Quiet the nervous system

Imagine Walking on Stage with This...

"I know what happens when pressure shows up, and now I know what to do next."
That's the difference between hoping anxiety won't appear, and having the skills to meet it when it does.

Good to know

A few questions

What if I can't make it to a session live?

Both sessions are recorded and sent to every participant, so you won't miss anything if your schedule doesn't allow you to attend live.

What does each session actually involve?

Live teaching, guided experiential exercises, Alexander Technique demonstrations, and time for live Q&A — so you leave with tools you can start using right away.

Do I need to attend both sessions?

The two sessions build on each other as one sequence, so we recommend attending both, live or via the recordings.

Your performance doesn't need more effort.
It needs less interference.

Learn how to interrupt the anxiety loop, quiet unnecessary tension, and create the conditions your musicianship needs to bloom.
