What is Alito

A breathing-led performance programme for golfers and leaders.

Alito is a functional breathing and mental game programme for elite and recreational performers. A unique training approach with one aim: to combine optimal breathing methods with the most effective mental game strategies.

The result is a calmer, more focused, more efficient mind. Greater control under pressure. And progressive performance, whether you're standing on the first tee or stepping into the boardroom.

About Dan

Hi, I'm Dan.

An Advanced Instructor with Oxygen Advantage, a lifelong golfer, and a 25-year veteran of the advertising business. I've seen first-hand how stress shapes performance, on the course and in the boardroom. Alito is my answer.

The science

Three systems. One method.

Biomechanical

How and where you breathe matters.

Diaphragmatic breathing supports better posture, core strength, and efficient movement. A strong diaphragm reduces fatigue and improves endurance under pressure.

Biochemical

Balancing gases in the body.

Breathing less (functional hypoventilation) increases CO2 tolerance, which improves oxygen delivery to working muscles and the brain.

Psychophysiological

Breath and the nervous system.

Slowing the breath activates the parasympathetic branch, stimulates the vagus nerve, and promotes calm, recovery, and focus.

Keep your mouth closed. Literally all the time. Just keep breathing through your nose. Especially in pressure situations.
