Book Private Mental-performance Lessons with Coach Celeste

I’m Celeste Fair, a Mental Performance Consultant from Boise, Idaho, who helps dancers and performers train their minds like athletes. As a former collegiate dancer and team captain, I know firsthand the physical and mental demands of performing at an elite level- and how crucial mindset is to thriving under pressure.

I’ve completed four half marathons, which has given me a personal perspective on goal-setting, perseverance, and pushing through mental and physical limits- lessons I bring directly to the performers I coach. I hold a Master of Education in Sport and Exercise Psychology from Springfield College, where I focused on applied mental performance strategies for athletes and dancers.

Through my coaching, I bridge the worlds of sport psychology and performing arts, teaching skills like confidence, focus, resilience, and self-trust that translate to every stage, studio, or competition. I believe dance is athletic, and peak performance starts with a strong, prepared mindset. My mission is to help every performer move, compete, and perform with power, purpose, and confidence.

Fear of failure can keep even the most talented performers from reaching their full potential. I help dancers and athletes overcome that fear while also strengthening focus, confidence, resilience, and mindset strategies that elevate every aspect of performance. Together, we’ll turn pressure into power and unlock the mental edge that allows you to perform at your best- on stage, on the field, or anywhere your skills matter most.

Every session with me blends practical mental performance strategies with self-discovery. We start by identifying your current challenges, goals, and mindset patterns, then move into exercises designed to strengthen focus, confidence, resilience, and composure under pressure.

A key part of my approach is guiding you to find your own connections and insights through interactive workshops, reflection activities, and applied exercises. Rather than just giving answers, I help you explore how mental skills relate to your unique experiences—on stage, in the studio, or in competition—so the strategies truly stick.

By the end of a session, you’ll leave with actionable tools, a deeper understanding of your mindset, and a plan to apply what you’ve learned to your next performance. My goal is for every session to empower you to perform at your best while building long-term mental strength.

I learned from an assistant coach in high school who always led by example, showing that dedication and consistency matter - no matter the talent.

I’m committed to helping athletes and performers develop both the mental and emotional skills they need to thrive under pressure. I approach coaching with empathy, understanding firsthand the challenges of performing at a high level, and I prioritize helping each athlete find their own strengths and connections to the work.

I believe that success isn’t just about skill- it’s about mindset, confidence, resilience, and self-trust. My goal is to equip performers with tools they can carry into every practice, performance, and life situation. I value open communication, collaboration, and creating a safe, supportive space where athletes feel empowered to grow, take risks, and perform at their best.
