The Power of Mind, Discipline & Dreams
Self-Hypnosis • Resilience • Goal Achievement
Gianluca Zanna and Claudette Lyons are a powerhouse duo blending mind, body, music, and resilience into a transformational speaking experience.
Born in Rome, Italy, Gianluca was shaped by early military discipline at the prestigious Military Academy Nunziatella. While others played, he visualized a future in America. That relentless vision carried him from boarding schools and survival on the streets of Rome to emigrating to the United States in 1998 with nothing but determination and belief in the power of the mind.
Today, he is a Board Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, Krav Maga Black Belt Military Instructor, Executive Protection Specialist, and CEO & Founder of Zanna Records, having produced over 150 original singles. As one half of the internationally recognized duo Luca and Claudette, he helped create chart-topping music reaching #1 on North American College Radio and earning global airplay in 39+ countries.
Claudette Lyons carries her own extraordinary story of resilience. A descendant of Civil War hero General James Lyons, her strength was tested in 2017 when she survived a violent near-fatal attack. Refusing to be defined by trauma, she rebuilt her life and, just one year later, was crowned Miss Ireland 2018.
Choosing not only survival but empowerment, Claudette became a certified Krav Maga instructor and resilience advocate, teaching others the mental and physical tools of self-defense. As a singer in Luca and Claudette, she channels emotional depth and strength into performances that have reached millions—including viral success with over 16 million TikTok views.
Together, Gianluca and Claudette integrate clinical hypnotherapy, martial arts discipline, music, and personal transformation to teach one core truth:
Transformation begins in the mind.
Their presentations combine real-life adversity, disciplined mental training, and creative expression to give audiences not just inspiration—but actionable tools to overcome fear, master their thoughts, and pursue goals others call impossible.
Their message is battle-tested:
“We are our thoughts. Be careful of what you think.”
