Even top competition Ballroom Dancers can benefit from sports hypnosis. They have to maintain perfect style and posture whilst executing the correct technique for each step they take during their routines and remain aware of where the other competitors are on the floor so that they do not collide. All this whilst dancing as a couple completely in harmony, in time to the music and making it look flowingly relaxed and as if they are enjoying the experience. A great deal of effort and concentration is required during a competition.
During training, vast amounts of time is spent perfecting technique, sometimes hours and hours on just a few steps. This is so that it becomes 'habit' - a good habit to perform a technique correctly. There are far too many aspects to worry about during the actual competition so the more that can become second-nature or habit, the better.
Hypnosis can help with this by enhancing the visualisation experience, making it more 'real', therefore helping with muscle-memory and entrenching the 'good habit'. This process can be used not only with their technique but also with other aspects of their performance, for example style, breathing and posture amongst others.
In trance, whole dance routines can be 'practiced' in the mind along with 'what if' scenarios - such as what to do if another couple is blocking your intended path.
