Embrace the discomfort with Red2Blue

For top performers, pressure can be a stimulant rather than an enemy to performance. Unless we’re exposed to increasing levels of pressure, it’s unlikely we’ll raise our game. This is the difference between the mediocre and the elite. Whether it’s in sport or in sales, in the classroom or learning to ride a bike, we will only improve if we’re prepared to raise the stakes.

Cohesive coaching requires a mental component

When it comes to developing sustained success in sports, being physically fit is only half the story. It’s commonly assumed that any level of success in sport is simply ‘practice makes perfect’; that repetition is all that’s needed. Footballers spend hours playing keepy-uppy, golfers are always on the practice green, and so on. What’s become popular recently, however, is the ‘cohesive coaching’ approach, providing a broader, more encompassing style.

How the All Blacks harness mindset in the moments that matter

We’ve been glued to the Rugby World Cup not only because we’re massive rugby fans, but also because it’s been brilliant to see the teams talking about the importance of mental skills when preparing for the big games. The All Blacks are particularly vocal about mindset and how it helps them to keep their focus in the moments that really matter. It has been a core part of their training since 2010 when they engaged in Red2Blue with Gilbert Enoka, supported by our co-founder Ceri Evans. The Red2Blue mindset work was part of a wider focus on creating a sustainable high-performance environment and culture within the team.

Maria Tulley took up golf at the age of 11 and went on to win several junior competitions, earning selection for the England U16 Girls Elite Squad. After studying a Sports Studies BTEC National Diploma at Penwith College, she turned professional in 2005 and spent eight years at West Cornwall Golf Club as assistant professional while completing her PGA degree at the University of Birmingham. 

Maria enjoyed considerable success as a player, including victory in the Ladies Tartan Tour event in Scotland, the Virgin Atlantic Order of Merit event (played against a field of men) and Europe's biggest ladies pro-am in 2018. She also became the first woman in 103 years to win the SPGU Championship. The highlight of her career came in October 2019, when she was one of just five players selected to represent Great Britain & Ireland in the inaugural Women's PGA Cup in Austin, Texas, playing alongside Heather MacRae, Ali Gray, Hazel Kavanagh and Suzanne Dickens under captain Cathy Panton-Lewis. 

Since then, Maria has continued to compete regularly on the WPGA Series and Rose Ladies Series while building a career in coaching. Now a PGA Professional and Performance Coach, she is also a qualified Red2Blue mindset coach, and worked with PGA Tour golfer Harry Hall in the early stages of his career.
