Introducing: Karl Steptoe - Sports Psychology Consultant and PGA Advanced Professional

Written by  Bob Duke on Monday, 21 March 2011
Karl Steptoe is a sport psychology consultant, director of a mind to perform Ltd, Golf Mental Ltd and a PGA Advanced Professional. His experiences as a player and coach ignited a fascination with the psychological demands of the game which lead to a BSc (hons) in Psychology, an MSc in the Psychology of Sport & Exercise (Loughborough University) and continued research into performance under pressure, motivation and mental toughness for his PhD.

His applied work covers many sports including athletics, tennis and football, however, his passion and focus remains in golf where he works with recreational golfers and elite players on the men's and ladies European tours, delivering individual consultancy as well as presentations and workshops.

Training from Inner Game founders Tim Gallwey and Sir John Whitmore complemented Karl's scientific understanding of optimum performance and has facilitated interventions that have enabled golfers of all abilities to realise their golfing potential.

We are happy to confirm that Karl will be providing us with brand new content in the coming weeks.

Welcome to the team!
