An hour-long interactive session for University of Nottingham staff led by professional pianist Dr Xenia Pestova, Director of Performance, Department of Music.
Performance anxiety can manifest in many different areas of our lives. Whether you are giving a presentation, preparing for a professional review or facing a difficult conversation, there are proven methods that can help you feel more grounded and supported.
Dr Xenia Pestova is a performer and music coach with international experience. She will work with the group to guide you through simple breathing techniques, focus exercises and gentle stretches incorporating yoga and Qi Gong influences to help understand and befriend performance anxiety.
