Neuro-linguistic Programming Based on the Concept of Modelling

Abstract Purpose of the article is: with this work, we want to present some neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) techniques that will improve the performance of junior and senior athletes, cadets, and children of the representative judo team of Romania. Methods we use an questionnaire and we show that communication is the main channel between athletes and coaches. Results two ways are emphasised in NLP: first, through asking descriptions, such as “saw,” “heard,” “felt” (visual, auditory, kinaesthetic [VAK]), and second, by making the language more dynamic and empirical based on the senses and space-time- nominated topics and events. NLP is replete with behaviour-modification techniques which cause rapid adaptations, particularly in sporting activity, where search-optimising cognitive behaviour is often a short-term goal. Verbs, movements, actions, processes, etc., set the reality in a more precise, more accurate manner. NLP has a real arsenal of effective techniques capable of generating rapid changes in behaviour of athletes for favourable performance. NLP identifies these ways as visual, auditory, kinaesthetic, somatosensory, olfactory, and gustatory to refer to different systems of representation of actions. Conclusions The basic principles of neuro-linguistic programming are based on the concept of modelling. Subjects that stimulate visual and auditory channels will have positive effects in the kinaesthetic sphere.
