What is it all about?

Coaching, with a professional coach, is the practice of supporting an individual, referred to as the client or mentee or coachee, through the process of achieving a specific personal or professional result. The structures, models and methodologies of coaching are numerous but are predominantly facilitating in style; that is the coach mainly asks questions and challenges the coachee to find answers from within himself/herself based on their values, preferences and unique perspective.
Coaching is differentiated from therapeutic and counseling disciplines since clients are in most cases considered healthy and move forward from their present situation. There are a variety of approaches within the coaching methodology. Coaching is performed with individuals and groups, in person, over the phone or even online/Skype. The facilitative approach to coaching in sport was pioneered by Timothey Gallwey in Tennis.
