Makis CHAMALIDIS – PhD in psychology, mental performance specialist
I am drawn to working and collaborating with exceptional talent - individuals who are competent, reliable, and possess strong human qualities. Marie-Jo and Marie were already a part of the "Champion in your Mind" project a decade ago when we were exploring ways to help talented individuals excel. Today, after 30 years of coaching in elite sports across different cultures and languages, I strongly believe that success cannot be achieved without a team dynamic where everyone is assigned a specific mission. As a mental performance specialist, my role is to help athletes understand and respect the laws and requirements of elite sports, and to encourage coaches to assume the role of a mental coach or delegate it intelligently. As the saying goes, "A pass makes two people happy."

Marie-José PEREC – Triple Olympic Champion - Consultant
Throughout my career, I was known for possessing strong mental skills that helped me excel as an athlete. I had intuitively developed tools that allowed me to express myself and win. I firmly believe that training one's mind is just as important as physical and technical training. Today, I want to share my knowledge on how to prepare mentally and help athletes and coaches understand what I wish I had known at the beginning of my career. This program simplifies all the information needed to improve performance. Had I received this support earlier, it would have been fantastic and accelerated my progress.
Marie de SAIGNES - Mental & Leadership Coach
I am dedicated to contributing to the success of French sports by sharing my 30 years of experience in developing excellence, both in business (as a former Director of Leadership and Talent Development at Sanofi) and in elite sports (as a collaborator with INSEP since 2012). I have coached nearly 3000 individuals from over 50 different nationalities. Additionally, I coach and train coaches in areas such as management and relational skills, so they can be more effective as mental coaches. Lastly, I co-created Move On!, a somatic coaching school that focuses on the intelligence of the body in movement, to help individuals make their body their best ally for performance. As the saying goes, "The body knows no denial and sheds light on an often powerful truth."
