How the Mindflex Method Builds Confidence, Emotional Control, and Courage — Under Pressure

LUCAS.png

In terms of personal performance, he made a 180-degree change.

He changed a lot.

Elis, Lucas' Mom

Before the program, I was scared and got stressed easily when I played.

When I made a mistake, I would hide from the plays and from my teammates.

Lucas, 14, Youth Soccer Player

As a mother, I could see something was missing, but I couldn’t reach his heart.

The mentoring did.

Elis, Lucas' Mom

Before, I used to quit.

Now I don’t quit anymore.

Lucas, 14, Youth Soccer Player

BRYAN.png

I’ve seen a big difference in his attitude on the field and in how he reacts.

He is much more confident. I’m saying this based on what I see.

Kelly, Bryan’s Mom

I realized that I am capable of overcoming my mental blocks.

 Bryan,17, MLS Next Soccer Player

Before, he hesitated.

Now he faces things head-on.

And even when something doesn’t go his way, he’s able to overcome it.

Kelly, Bryan’s Mom

I don’t play with fear anymore.

I go into one-on-one situations and physical battles with confidence.

Something changed. I flipped the switch.

Bryan, 17, MLS Next Soccer Player

For over 25 years, Coach Thales has helped soccer players overcome fear, rebuild confidence, and play with courage, clarity, and self-belief under pressure.

If your child is struggling with:

  • Fear, anxiety, or pressure during games;

  • Mistakes that spiral into panic or shutdown;

  • Confidence loss after injuries or setbacks;

…The Mindflex Method trains them to stay calm, aware, courageous, and in control and not lose their confidence.

LUCAS FRAUSINO.png

He wasn’t able to believe in himself. He looked too much at other players and forgot that he has the skills—he needed to focus on himself and overcome his fears.

Kaylee, Lucas’ Mom

I learned that I don’t give up.

Lucas, 14, MLS Next Soccer Player

Before, I saw him hiding.

Today I see him happy—playing with joy and really wanting to show himself. That was a blessing.

 Kaylee, Lucas’ Mom

Even when they’re bigger and taller than me, if I get pushed and fall, I just get up and keep going.

Lucas, 14, MLS Next Soccer Player

Bernardo Marcieri.png

During these 90 days, his self-confidence improved a lot—especially at home.

 

I can clearly see a significant change.

 

 

Lauriana, Bernardo's Mom

Before, I was good, but not as good as I am now. After learning the Buffalo mentality,

I became better than I was before and much more confident.

Bernardo,12, MLS Next Soccer Player

He didn’t forget how to play. He just forgot that he could. After the last game, he remembered.

 

​​

 

Carlos, Bernardo's Dad 

Every time I make a mistake, I use the reset mentality.

 

It helps me stay calm, focused, and play better.

Bernardo, 12, MLS Next Soccer Player

Wes Antista.png

Nutrition, 100% agree with. I think he cares a lot more about nutrition than certainly anyone else in my family.

 

I would say that’s actually happened since the time of working with you.

Jared, Wes' Dad

Something I learned while doing the MindFlex program was mentality. I learned things like the Buffalo and Reset mindset, and they helped me become braver on the field.

 

I started playing more aggressively and taking more chances and bouncing back quickly after mistakes.

Wes, 15, EA Soccer Player 

For me, it was never really for him to become a better soccer player.

 

It was for him to look within himself and see all of his potential.

Paula, Wes' Mom 

Right now? My confidence level? Probably nine.

Wes, 15, EA Soccer Player

Allan Deaquino.png

Before, I saw him much more nervous.

 

Today I see him calmer, more confident on the field, and much more of a leader.

 

He asks for the ball, communicates, and no longer cries when he misses a goal.

Jackson, Allan’s Dad

Before I used to get more nervous.

 

Now I’m calmer and more confident. Now I’m better.

Allan, 7, Youth Soccer Player 

He always had the technical ability. What made the difference was the mentality, without a doubt. It was the mentality that made him improve so much.

Jackson, Allan’s Dad

When I breathe and do the reset, I’m able to focus better and play better.

Allan, 7, Youth Soccer Player 

Bernardo Santos Rhein Gonçalves.png

After everything I’ve been through with injuries, this last one hit — but I reacted differently. I was frustrated, but much calmer.

 

I knew it was just another step and that I would handle it.

Bernardo, 17,
Professional Soccer Player

I’ve learned to flip the switch. I allow myself to feel it, then I refocus and move forward.

 

I trust the process now, and I trust that better opportunities will come.

Bernardo, 17, Professional Soccer Player

At this level, everyone is talented.

 

What separates you is how you respond when things don’t go your way. Mentally, I’m much stronger now.

Bernardo, 17, Professional Soccer Player

Dylan Marques.png

Mentally, I’m way more confident now. I’m fearless in games — trying to score, assist, dribble.

 

If I make a mistake, I win the ball back and focus on the next play.

Dylan, 17, High School Senior 

​I used to be about a six or seven in confidence. Now I’m a nine or ten.

Dylan, 17, High School Senior 

​The mental side is probably the most important part of the game. Having the right mentality is a game changer.

Dylan, 17, High School Senior

Martin.png

BEFORE

AFTER

I used to be afraid and scared of making mistakes because I was always negative. 

Martin, 9, Youth Soccer Player 

Yes, I believe in myself… because I have a bunch of deposits in my brain. And visualization and the mentalities Thales taught me make me go.​

Martin, 9, Youth Soccer Player 

Moises.png

BEFORE

AFTER

I was so nervous that I couldn’t think straight on the field. I was focused on the wrong things, overthinking, and I couldn’t even do the basics right during games.

Moises, 17, ECNL Soccer Player 

Now I truly believe in myself. A lot. I know I have more inside me, and I’m ready to go all in and compete again.​

Having you as a coach was the best thing that could’ve happened to me both inside and outside the pitch. You taught me to never give up regardless of the obstacle in your way.

Coach Thales has enabled me to improve daily in our trainings, and by giving us the 1% opportunity, we have been able to achieve objectives that we did not think was possible.

You helped me so much with the game, you showed me how to be free, how to play free. I was very hard on myself and you helped me not only be free in my mind but on the field as well.

Thales reminded me and the team that everything in life is earned and he kept us accountable by showing tough love.

... his motivational speeches before the games would give you the chills and ignite a fire inside of you.

I remember showing up to my first training at Golden State, I had never had a practice that hard in my life, I was sore for the next few days. I’m so grateful for the knowledge you gave me, working specifically with me, teaching me diagonal runs. Without a doubt the best coach I had, I admire you and I’m lucky to have learned from you.

During the two years I spent playing for Thales I learned a lot that helped push my teammates and I to become the best versions of ourselves on and off the field. The mindset this man has to become 1% better every single day is inspiring...

He helped shape my mentality to believe that I can truly do what I want to do in life if we focus on just improving day by day, little by little. Since learning this, I no longer have the need to look for life changing results from one day to another, but to focus on the small accomplishments...
