As professional and olympic windsurfers that are competing almost once a month nervousness is a sensation we have dealt with over and over again. It’s not an inherently pleasant feeling to experience but if you look deeper into it, it can actually help you perform better.

We discuss our own relationship to being nervous and give tips on how we deal with it. Hopefully this can be helpful to you in case you struggle with feeling overly nervous wether that be during exam week or competition week:)
