What is pressure? Where does it come from? Why does it inhibit performance?
Many people use the term, ‘I’m under pressure’, or ‘the boss is putting pressure on me’, ‘My deadline has me under the gun’ without any understanding of what is physically and mentally happening inside their brains and bodies.
In his seminar, ‘Pressure: Lessons From The Deep’, Adam Sellars tackles these questions and breaks down what is happening to a person internally, why it’s happening, the consequences of typical responses and how to channel your mind when it’s under siege and to perform at peak levels in business, sport or environment.
Freediving takes place in an environment that is still uniquely wild and that places a great Physical Pressure on the human body. When you lose the ability to breathe but have learned how to control your responses it gives great insight into what we, as Humans, are capable of achieving and reveals strategies of how we can survive the daily mental pressures of life which prevent us from achieving our best.

We used Adam for our National Kawasaki Dealers Conference for our keynote speaker. His presentation was informative, gave us real world strategies to deal with stress and anxiety, yet was also hilarious. We will definitely look to use Adam in the future.
I worked with Adam and The Pressure Project, through one of the most turbulent times in my life. Freediving and the principles that come with diving deep on one breath has set me on a new course, one that will help me live a more present and peaceful life both through my cricketing career and beyond. Highly recommend Adam and his team.
I contracted Adam to work with my swimmers. His input has helped many of my squad not only deal with the pressure that comes with being an elite athlete but also everyday life for young men and women in this stressful world.
Adam Sellars’ course changed my life. The skills and techniques I now use help me achieve my best both in and out of the pool.
