About Dr. Anna Vazquez
Dr.
Anna Vazquez is dedicated to developing human potential.
Dr. Vazquez brings a gentle, intuitive and goal oriented
approach to her work as she engages the client’s imagination in
the art of possibility, and the infinite creativity of the
human mind. Through her life experience Dr. Vazquez understands

BrainWave Virtuosity
developed out of Dr. Vazquez’s personal
and professional experience – motivated by her own
performance challenges, an intense passion for making music,
curiosity and an unending desire to grow. Besides her doctoral
work in performance, and the brainwave certification training,
she has studied yoga and meditation, and participated in
the Empowerment Training, the Grace Program, the Therapeutic
Sound School, as well as other personal growth and development
programs.
For her doctoral paper in 1996 Dr. Vazquez designed a 15
week college course to teach aspiring artists how to overcome
performance anxiety and move into the peak performance state
of flow. Dr. Vazquez has provided brainwave training and
performance coaching to clients from a wide range of professions
as well as students aspiring to higher achievement. She tailors
classes and brainwave training sessions to the specific needs
of the organization and the individual. This process has
also been useful for clients interested in deepening meditation
and personal development.
Dr. Vazquez is the first and only certified brainwave coach
in Minnesota to offer combined Neural Synchrony, Open Focus,
and Awakened Mind/High Performance Mind protocols. Dr. Vazquez
is indebted to biofeedback pioneers, Dr. Fehmi and Anna Wise
for all their research in brainwave training, heightened
functioning, the dimensions of attention, and the development
of consciousness.
