Thanks to the neuro-athletic training with Lars, I stayed injury-free for over four years. I owe a lot to this approach.

More about Lars LienhardDas sagen Top-Athleten über unser Training:
What Ulla and Lars are doing is currently revolutionizing our sport.
Lars impresses not only with his expertise, but above all with who he is as a person. No matter when – he’s there, with heart, mind, and full attention. During the 2023 World Championships, he helped me via FaceTime despite severe pain – with success: I qualified for the Olympics.
Thank you, Lars – you’re a true gamechanger!
Anyone who tries neuro-athletic training will notice a difference immediately. I find it endlessly fascinating and impressive how quickly the nervous system responds and how specifically it can be targeted.
Das sagen unsere Teilnehmer
“Ich finde das tolle an der Ausbildung, dass es sehr praxisnah und sofort anwendbar ist. Trotz der hohen Komplexität des Themas, wird es so anschaulich gemacht, dass man es sofort benutzen kann!”

“Julian ist ein großartiger Dozent, der mit seiner lockeren und lustigen Art direkt eine angenehme Lernatmosphäre schafft. Er erklärt alles super verständlich und sorgt dafür, dass der Unterricht nie langweilig wird. Mit vielen abwechslungsreichen und praxisnahen Beispielen macht er auch komplizierte Themen leicht verständlich. So bleibt der Stoff hängen und das Lernen macht echt Spaß.”
Janine Kuberczyk
„Die Ausbildung zum Neuroatheltik Trainer bei Lars und Ulla, hat meinem Verständnis über den menschlichen Körper extrem erweitert.
Lars und Ulla verstehen es mit einer Mischung aus Erfahrungsberichten und Fakten eine unfassbare Menge an Wissen zu transferieren. Für mich, als Sportphysiotherapeuten, ist Neuroathletik ein fixer Bestandteil der Therapie geworden. Ich lasse viele Ideen und Techniken in die Therapie einfließen. Dadurch komme ich schneller aber vor allem effektiver zu dem gewünschtem Therapie-Erfolg. Die von mir betreuten Sportler sind immer wieder überrascht, dass Bewegungs- bzw. Ansteuerungsprobleme so schnell in den Griff zu kriegen sind.“

Frequently asked questions
I don’t work professionally in elite sports. Is the neuro-athletic trainer certification still useful for me?
In principle, all our advanced training programs are suitable for anyone with experience in any form of movement and/or an interest in the human brain. This can be in sports, on stage, or in therapy/rehabilitation—whether for professional or personal reasons.
It is helpful to familiarize yourself with the basics of neurobiology before starting the training. For this, we recommend the following books:
- Lienhard, L. (2019): Training Begins in the Brain. Using Neuro-Athletics to Improve Athletic Performance. riva Publishing, Munich
- Schmid-Fetzer, U. (2018): Neuro-Athletic Training. Fundamentals and Practice of Neuro-Centered Training. Pflaum Publishing, Munich
What’s most important is curiosity, openness to a new perspective, and a willingness to engage with and try out neuro-athletic training.
Can I complete the modules of the neuro-athletic coach training in any order I choose?
No. The 5 modules of the training program build on each other and should therefore be completed in the following order:
- Module 1
- Module 2
- Module 3: Strength and Mobility
- Module 4: Speed
- Module 5: Endurance
Modules 1 and 2 must be completed first, followed by Modules 3 to 5.
If you are unable to attend the modules in the intended order, please contact us at anmeldung@nat-institute.com and we will work with you to find a solution.
Do I have to attend all the modules of the neuro-athletic coach training at the same location?
No. The content of the modules is always the same, regardless of the location.
Therefore, the training can be completed at different locations.
It is important to follow the correct sequence of modules:
- Module 1
- Module 2
- Module 3: Strength and Mobility
- Module 4: Speed
- Module 5: Endurance
If you are unable to attend the modules in the intended order, please contact us at anmeldung@nat-institute.com and we will work with you to find a solution.
Do I have to complete the training within a specific period of time?
No. There is no mandatory time frame for completion. If you book all modules at one location, the training takes approximately 10 months.
However, you can spread the modules over 1 to 2.5 years.
From our perspective, a longer time frame is not recommended.
Can I book Module 1 individually and still receive the full booking discount later?
Yes, you can initially book Module 1 at the regular price.
If you later decide to book the complete training program, you will retroactively receive the full booking discount—meaning you will pay a total of 5,499 euros for all 5 modules.
The same applies if you first book Modules 1 and 2 at the regular price and later decide to continue with Modules 3, 4, and 5.
Do I have to pay the full amount in one single payment when booking the complete package?
No. Upon request, it is possible to arrange an individual installment payment plan.
Please check the “Arrange installment payment” option on the booking form or contact us at anmeldung@nat-institute.com.
Are there financial support options for participating in a seminar?
The Neuro Athletic Training Institute is not yet a certified continuing education institution. However, individual funding measures have already been approved.
Please check with the relevant funding agencies. We are happy to support you in compiling the necessary information for your application.
Can I earn continuing education credits with the neuro-athletic coach training?
We can award continuing education credits for physiotherapists and occupational therapists. Credits are only granted for the complete training program, not for individual modules.
What is the process of the final exam for certified neuro-athletic trainers?
After completing all five training modules, you will have the opportunity to take the written final exam to become a Neuro-Athletic Coach.
Participation in the final exam is optional. However, passing the exam is required to receive the Neuro-Athletic Coach certificate and to be listed on our website as a NAT Trainer.
The exam consists of five parts—one set of questions per module. Each part must be passed individually.
You will complete and submit the exam sheets via the digital testing platform exam.net. There is no time limit, so you can answer the questions at your own pace.
How does an in-house training session work?
Our specialized instructor will teach you and your team the most important fundamentals of neuro-athletic training. We also tailor the training to your specific needs—this will be coordinated with you in advance.
To adequately convey the complexity and practical applications of this topic, and to give you ample opportunity for hands-on experience, we always recommend a two-day training weekend.
