This episode is just Zack starting a new segment called "The Coaches Corner." In these segments, it will not be interview style as in previous episodes, but rather quick coaching hits that we can take to our current practices.
In this episode, Zack talks about teaching skating to allow for individuality, adaptability, and developing dynamic skaters. We will touch on...
-What is important for skaters to be able to do?
-How do we make skating fun?
-Practice design on and off the ice
-Incentivizing behaviors we want to see in our skaters
-Stealing from other sports and PE teachers
