Stage Fright Specialist

Thank you for visiting this page. I’m Sally Kanemitsu, a specialist in overcoming stage fright with brain-based methods. I once tried traditional solutions—speech practice, breathing exercises, and even forcing myself through countless public speaking opportunities—but my stage fright only worsened.

Then, one day, I was given a speaking opportunity I simply couldn’t turn down. That moment became the turning point in my journey. Determined to conquer my fear, I discovered a brain-based approach, and everything changed—I finally overcame my stage fright.

My goal is to help you live each day free from the anxiety of unexpected speeches, presentations, or self-introductions. I’ve realized that not only in Japan but across the world, many people make their stage fright worse by relying on misguided traditional methods.

When you understand how the brain works—and use it the right way—you can overcome stage fright. With Sally’s Method, let’s transform your life into one that is brighter and full of opportunities!

Biography

Sally Kanemitsu struggled with extreme stage fright for many years. Her turning point came when she received an invitation to give a public speech she simply couldn’t decline. Determined to overcome her fear, she immersed herself in studying neuroscience and psychology, eventually developing a brain-based method. In just ten days, she successfully overcame her stage fright.

Building on her personal experience, Sally realized that with the right approach, people could achieve remarkable change in a short period. She went on to spend eight years as a mental trainer at a national qualification preparatory school, where she supported more than 10,000 adult students.

In 2010, Sally founded Vigorous Mind, a company dedicated to helping individuals overcome stage fright through brain-based methods (later incorporated). Her approach delivers fast and effective transformations by addressing the root cause of stage fright rather than just its symptoms.
