Wigan Athletic F.C


"Following a successful breathwork workshop, Jack and Ricardo delivered a sleep and recovery session that was engaging, practical, and grounded in clear science. Feedback from our U18 and U21 players was extremely positive, and we look forward to welcoming Optima Performance back."


Leeds United F.C


“Jack and the Optima Performance team have delivered excellent workshops for our Professional Development Phase players. Jack’s experience resonates strongly with the group, and the sessions have helped players invest more deeply in their performance, both as athletes and individuals."

Awareness

We start by building awareness of the systems that drive performance - breath, nervous system, sleep, focus, and recovery. Through education and guided experience, participants learn why they feel, perform, and recover the way they do. This stage creates clarity, removes confusion, and lays the foundation for meaningful change.

 
Application

Knowledge only matters if it can be applied under pressure. In this stage, participants practise practical tools and strategies in guided environments — breathing techniques, movement flows, focus drills, and recovery protocols — learning how to apply them in training, competition, work, and daily life.

 
Mastery

Mastery is about consistency, not intensity. This stage focuses on integrating tools into daily routines, creating repeatable habits and personal systems that support long-term performance, resilience, and wellbeing. The goal is independence — knowing how to regulate, recover, and perform without relying on motivation alone.
