Sarah Majid

Retiring as an international Judo player at the age of 19 was not an end but the beginning of achieving things that I thought were impossible. Growing up in Mumbai, I never thought I would be able to move to a new country and establish my own business as a sports psychologist but having the experience of doing many impossible things in Judo gave me the courage to pursue my real purpose.

As a young athlete, I had no balance and only this crazy drive for perfection. It helped me to overcome injuries at the age of 12, overcome the difficulties in National Training Camps at the age of 13 and allowed me to become an Asian Judo medallist at age 15. Every athlete goes through peaks and troughs and it’s never as clear as we think. It looks rosy to others from the outside but only an athlete truly knows what they are constantly going through. My purpose lies in supporting athletes to understand and manage that ‘grey area’ between peaks and troughs.  I like to make things easy for my clients because success doesn’t not always come from struggles but it comes from having the courage to listen to your inner voice and strive for excellence based around your strengths.

I truly believe that human beings have an innate ability to achieve and strive for perfection. Some of us allow ourselves to get too carried away and some of us never really realise that we always had that innate ability. My work lies between these two realms- I help you to find that ‘balance’ where your optimal potential will express itself with consistency.

“Every athlete dreams of achieving something that once seemed impossible”

 
 

In my own words

I have aimed to answer some common questions I come across from client, students and athletes. It is important for you to get to know me before we proceed with a session where I would get to know more about you. If you have any further questions, please feel free to write to me at sarah@sarahmajid.com
