Official WAKO GB Instructor Coaching Course – Online Version
Since 2011, we have been educating members on the importance of WAKO Policies, best practices in kickboxing and applying the fundamentals of coaching into our methodology.
This course, in addition to the previous material, now boasts:
- More Modules
- Full Anatomy & Physiology Learning
- Safeguarding Integration
- Movement Mechanics in Martial Arts
- Live Workshops for Practical Application
- A deeper assessment protocol
What the ‘instructor’ gets is a fully loaded online platform with manuals for each module, videos and presentations to follow and make notes from, a full live teaching day followed closely by an assessment day.
There is also a technique Workbook that must be brought to the live workshop to populate over the duration of the learning with a tutor.
Course Overview:
The Aim of this is to develop an understanding of the various practical exercises, movements & sessions that are used in the Kickboxing Programmes such as combinations and variations in movement.
By the end of the live workshop day, attendees should be able to:
- Completely mobilise and ‘warm up’ the group
- Apply combinations into a realistic fighting methodology as well as for fitness improvements
- Completely apply developmental stretching to the group as a ‘cool down’
