Being a coach is a lot more than being good at what you’re teaching. In fact, you could be a great coach and be a mediocre athlete. The skill set that dictates your ability to coach includes things like communication, organisation, compassion, enthusiasm, honesty, humour, dependability and consistency. This course teaches you how to become a coach. From class control, planning a session, delivering material, assessing students, promoting courses and maintaining a safe and positive learning environment.
The Level 1 Course is the first step in your apprenticeship to becoming a coach. While here we’ll learn the theory, your practical learning is on the mats under the guidance of the established coaches in the gym. Details of the full process is laid out in the course content.
