Course Overview
Part A: First Principles and Concepts
The first 4 weeks of Skill Acquisition will cover the First Principles of Skill Acquisition, providing a detailed history into the origins and notable minds behind the Skill Acquisition Model and its adjacent thought processes. We’ll work through the Cognitive phase from the Coach and Client perspective to understand how to truly meet our client’s where they’re at.
Part B: Associative Phase
The next 2 weeks are focused on applying the concepts and strategies from the Cognitive Phase to real time Motor Learning. Learn how to manage the Volume and Intensity of Skill Work to take into account the External and Internal Stressors of your client/athlete. Understand the the theories behind Association and Strength Theory (how to retain and retrieve information and memories) and how that influences how we coach and constrain the more Specific or Skilled Work to ensure technique is improved at the most efficient rate.
Part C: Autonomous Phase and Performance Considerations
The final 2 weeks answer the questions "What happens when technique breaks down?" and "Should I just push through?"
Learn and develop strategies that create the necessary stimulus for physiological change while still addressing technical weak points. Build out exercise selection systems to promote the positional awareness and athletic capacities your client needs for high performance.
