“I spent my life chasing professional sport. It wasn’t talent or work ethic that held me back - it was a failure to adapt. I learned that too late. Now, through the development of the Human Performance Approach, I help others learn it early. I want the next generation to succeed where I struggled - and where outdated systems still fall short.”
- Shaun Lane
Owner, Performance Director, Athlete, Speaker, Documentarian.
Bachelor of Health Science, Diploma of Psychology, Master of Positive Psychology (ongoing).
“I’ve spent my career studying and practicing Human Performance in the pursuit of my goals. I used my knowledge to accomplish my sporting dreams and now I want to help others realise theirs. I know the path that lies ahead because I’ve been there - I will show you the way forward.”
- Alex Johnston
Head of Specialised Performance, Athlete, Author, Mentor.
PhD in Try Scoring.
“I've been fortunate to live out my dream through Rugby League. Now, through Pro Era, I'm focused on giving back - sharing what I’ve learned to inspire the next generation and help my community rise through sport, culture, and purpose.”
- Billy Tsikrikas
Head of Physical Performance, Fromer Athlete, Educator.
Bachelor of Sport and Exercise Science, Diploma of Education.
“I set out to build a career in professional sport, but often my body had other plans. Injury after injury kept me sidelined. What I lost in game time, I gained in perspective. Now I use that experience to guide others - helping them train smarter, recover better, and build careers that last.”
- Robert Henriques
Head of Rehabilitation, Former Athlete.
Bachelor of Sport and Exercise Science, Master of Exercise Physiology.
“I’ve seen the highs and lows of professional sport up close through my own experience and my brother’s high profile career. His journey has shown me how many challenges go unseen. Now, I’m committed to helping athletes navigate those same hurdles with better support, smarter systems, and real care.”
- Dr. Stephane Verhaeghe
Consultant Neurologist & Psychiatrist, Former Air Force Pilot, Analog Astronaut, Inventor.
Founder & CEO of Brain Vector.
“As an Air Force pilot I faced the challenges of the high performance approach before I eventually moved into Medicine, then Pharmaceuticals and Neurology. Now my passion for mental health and Human Performance drives me to help others to thrive. Recently I worked with NASA on a Mars analog mission to showcase the groundbreaking capabilities of Virtual Reality Positive Memory Enhancement (VRPME) in even the harshest environments.”
