Cal Jones is an advanced Judo coach from North Wales. He has been exploring the application of ecological approaches since he was exposed to the approaches as a participant by a coach who he describes as 'intensely likeable'. His post graduate research saw him create an assessment tool (called an RPAT) to assess how representative a practice activity in Judo is.
In this conversation Cal and I discuss the application of ecological approaches to Judo and the challenges to applying these approaches in certain contexts and against a set of culturally resilient expectations that are hardwired into the psyche of the Judo community.
Its a fascinating conversation. Hope you enjoy
Quick warning...there is some poor sound early in the episode but it doesn't last for long and we get it fixed...its worth persevering!
