 Peak Performance Coaching with Lydia is born...
   Since 2012, I've helped performing artists get past the invisible barriers that seemed to interrupt their shows on stage and demonstrated methods of free-improvisation are accessible without feeling naked and vulnerable. It feels wonderful to connect.

"In fact, I figured out that I LOVE connecting with people more than just about anything: listening deeply, opening pathways to feeling, and huge growth."
​
This happens when I compose music and audiences are rapt in the atmosphere created by the performing artists.

It also happens with coaching. 
 
Thus came my huge leap to embrace investment in coaching and growth. I am pleased to say that I received certification for my extended studies through Evercoach at Mindvalley, which is accredited by the International Coaching Federation. This was the birth of Peak Performance Coaching with Lydia.

Don't forget, there's a  business tribe for artists based on each subscriber lifting a small amount of the weight (just like tuning your own instrument or stretching your own body). Your investment - show up for the conversations - we'll talk about creative flow in the culturescape, some of us will write new music, you and your students, quartet and choir members and artists and dancers get to influence it and use it. You even get your names registered on it. Join the tribe! 

Music for Women with violinist Elmira Darvarova and Howard Wall is also on Affetto/Naxos.
