fencer and his extraordinary 20-year journey to Paris 2024. More than a sports
memoir, it is a deep exploration of mental performance, personal growth and
what it truly takes to pursue a dream physically, emotionally and
psychologically.
An
uplifting and inspiring account of what it takes to perform when it really
matters and achieve your lifetime goal after 20 years of effort
When the moment arrives to realise a dream, will you be
ready? Will the years of effort pay off? Will you be able to peak your
performance, technically, mentally and emotionally? Will you be able to handle
the pressure?
For 21 years, Alex Tofalides pursued a dream of fencing at
the Olympics, first as part of the British elite programme, then for Cyprus
under his own direction. He had become a British and European champion, but had narrowly
missed going to London, Rio and Tokyo. Now he was in the final of the European
qualifier, one fight away from Paris 2024.
In this book, he shares what it takes to finally
realise your dream to perform at the biggest games of all. The psychology. Your
narrative. The analysis. The processes. The regime. Your resilience. As he
finally overcomes his doubts and limitations, you will learn what it takes to
perform in the moment when it all really matters.
Alex Tofalides is a fencer, speaker and author, who has spent 25 years learning how to achieve peak performance under pressure. He was part of Britain's elite fencing programme for many years, before becoming the first fencer to represent Cyprus at the Olympics in Paris 2024. After the experience of becoming his own coach, he now gives regular presentations on resilience, strategy and performance in English, Greek, Arabic, Spanish and French. He remains in training for LA 2028.
