KATANA

ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE

We help you reach your peak potential

About

This program is not for everyone.

This is for those who train like warriors under pressure.

Those who have to do their BEST when it matters the MOST.

 Katana is a high-performance training system designed for individuals who operate in pressure-cooker environments — executives, elite athletes, IndyCar teams, and performance-driven professionals. 

What Is the Katana 'Method'?

Katana Athletic Performance fuses cutting edge neuroscience, advanced martial arts perspectives, and principles of elite level athletic training into a program that is built to train clarity, identity, and optimal performance under stressful conditions.​​

Sample Outline of the Program:

1. NEUROEDGE (Cognitive Control & Breath Training)

  • Breath protocols (Andrew Huberman-style)

  • Flow state induction drills

  • Neural fatigue management (NSDR)

2. SAMURAI STRATEGY (Identity & Adaptability)

  • Philosophical training rooted in Bushidō

  • Developing precision under chaos

  • Detachment and decisiveness

3. AIKIDO MOVEMENT (Embodied Awareness & Timing)

  • Spatial efficiency and reactive calm

  • Movement under tension

  • Sensory-field expansion

4. HIGH-STAKES PERFORMANCE (Application)

  • Decision-making under pressure

  • Recovery as strategy

  • Executive/athlete scenario drills

 Who It's For

  • Executives facing rapid, high-consequence decisions

  • NFL and MLB athletes managing physical + mental load

  • IndyCar teams: drivers, pit crews, performance staff

This is not general fitness. This is surgical performance under pressure.

 

Outcomes You Can Expect

  • 🔺 Increased mental clarity in high-stress moments

  • 🔺 Breath control that triggers focus or recovery on command

  • 🔺 Faster recovery from intensity—mental and physical

  • 🔺 Identity-level resilience under pressure
