Instructors - Coaching Workshop

As part of our expanding offering of Coach education and support this Continuous Professional Development opportunity is a standalone unit that any coach or interested person can undertake. It is also a micro credential earning credits towards the new Level 2 Senior Club Coach award being developed through IMAC and Sport Ireland. This will be open to all adult black belts who are currently coaching, assisting or helping to teach in an ITA club. 

Coaches will learn to enhance the performance of the 6 competition breaks through the use of developmental exercises, technical progression and regression and video analysis. They will be tasked with choosing the correct technical variation and progression for their athletes, basing their choices on; a deterministic model, the physical characteristics of their athletes and their stage of development. They will learn to identify and prioritise areas for improvement based on observation and analysis.

Students - Seminar
This is a wonderful chance to meet with fellow students and instructors with a passion for breaking boards. Learn from two dedicated aficionados of the art and get personalised tips and refinements to help improve your breaking skills.
