The Raviv program for excellence in sports is an advanced program that improves skills, high concentration, strong attention, multi tasking and stress control. Our program enables athletes to achieve optimal mental regulation and realize their personal potential to the maximum using various tools.The Raviv program is suitable for groups and individuals in all fields of sport.
We have applied this  program in Israel with great success on  numerous  athletes.

Known athletes that practice the Raviv Method for excellence in sports by Ronni Cohen:

  Israeli basketball team, Hapoel Jerusalem during the 2009 season, with headcoach Guy Goodes.

·        Israeli Basket Ball team, Hapoel Galil Elion during the 2007 season, with headcoch odded
 katch.

·        Maccabi Tel Aviv athletes, Omri Caspi and Yotam Halperin during the 2008 season.

·        Hapoel Jerusalem athlete Erez Marcovich during the 2008 season.

·        Nadav Konieczny a professional rally driver from 2005 to 2008.

*A neural cognitive treatment for developing learning skills and attention.

 
 

Achievements by athletes  that use the  Raviv method in Sports:

     Hapoel Jerusalem is a member of the Israeli national league. The use of the Raviv method for excellence in sports  during the 2009 season, was a  main factor in  the team achieving place in the ‘final four’ at the end of that year, As illustrated  in the short movie on our web site.

·        Galil Elion is a member of the Israeli national league. During the first half of the 2007 season the team was   10th place in the Israeli league.  The use of the Raviv method for excellence in sports was a  main factor in  the team achieving third place in the ‘final four’ at the end of
        Omri Caspi, Following his success in Galil Elion  was transferred to Maccabi Tel Aviv where he played a key position  throughout 2008 season.

·        Yotam Halperin, together with Omri Caspi, started to practice the Raviv method for excellence in sports in the first half of  2008 season, As illustrated  in the short movie on our web sight, the Raviv Method was a main factor in his improvement during the year,  that led him to   signing  a three million $ contract with the Greek Olimpiacos team.

·   Erez Markovich, team captain of Hapoel Jerusalem , during the 2008 season while practicing the Raviv program, increased his playing time and turned into a key player towards the end of the season.

·        Nadav Konieczny  achieved third place overall at the biggest rally conducted in Israel since 1998. Nadav's Rally team runs on a budget of approximately 10% of the budget of the Israeli Subaru Rally team that won first place in that race.

 

 

How does Raviv method for excellence in sport work?

Today we understand that the brain sends messages using  the nervous system. The movement of the limbs are achieved by muscles that receive these messages and act accordingly. Our program relies on the assumption that muscles send back messages to the brain using the same system. The brain then responds and creates neurological sub structures to better adjust and cope with the new environment.

Raviv Method for Excellence in Sports consists of three basic factors.

1.     Stimulating the brain and creating new neural paths that are needed for learning.
All brains and especially those of leading athletes have gaps between the various fields in which they operate. We find that we are able to identify those gaps and bridge them with a pinpoint interference. Our program is based on gradual motion practice that "coaches" the brain to full cooperation between all its sectors. This is followed by more specific exercises that enable the creation of new neural sub structures.

2.     Coaching the brain and helping it improve it's two dimensional perception.
This type of perception is necessary in order to strengthen learning ability, planning strategy, organization, directional perception, space orientation, linking sets of ideas and the perception of time.

3.      Controlling the brain waves.
High level of brain wave activity enables you to concentrate for a long time. A low level of brain wave activity demands  a great deal of effort for the same activity, thus causing low concentration. The ability to work in an alternating and adjusted brain level means: better multitasking and better self adjustment. Our program gives the individual the ability to increase brain wave activity in order to have better focus and control or decrease brain wave activity in order to relax and prevent anxieties. These  new abilities help athletes improve cognitive functions in all aspects of sport and life.

"Imagine what happens inside your head when you have to make a decision. You receive information from the different brain functions: facts, opinions, thoughts, memories and predicting outcomes. You arrange the fractions of information add reason test possible results and instruct a response. Phases of this process are based on motorial functions, organizing by sequence, adding analyzing and instructing, the neural networks that work within those processes are those that work in motorial processes."
  “… parts of the brain that are used to organize sequences and timing of cognitive function are the same parts that organize a sequence and timing of physical actions”
