“Truth in combat lies outside fixed patterns.” — Bruce Lee
Real coaching isn’t forcing athletes into patterns.
It’s manipulating constraints so each athlete can find functional solutions.

You don’t build confidence for a fight by talking about it.
You build it by solving problems over and over until you can handle whatever comes at you.

“Training is where you plant the seeds and pull the weeds”
Most coaches focus on the session. The best ones build the environment where growth actually happens.
@andygrahn joins @thecoachjav for a new episode this week 👇

Each year near the end of the Sport Movement Skill Conference, I come out invigorated and fueled by the number of curious and dedicated practitioners who simply cannot get enough of diving deep down the rabbit holes of skill acquisition, wrestling with how the ideas apply in their real world sport contexts.
This pic here included the proud practitioners left standing as the SMSC came to an end & the venue needed to shut down shop & kick us out for the day!
We are thrilled to announce that @andygrahn and @mke_mma will be leading an electric roundtable discussion about embracing an ecological dynamics framework and using nonlinear pedagogical principles in martial arts!
Check out: Applying an ecological dynamics framework to mixed martial arts training (2024)
Open access here now from @TylerYearby, @SBGAthens, @mke_mma & @andygrahn!

Can coaches pick and mix from different scientific theories to inform their practical applications?

But no matter the sport you coach & work within, I believe you can take something from what’s here.
