ADVICE

Use The PEACE RR Checklist

  • Use the PEACE RR checklist when cueing: Position, Exercise name, Action, Concept, Explain breath, Refine, Return, Repeat.
  • Say start position and exercise name first to raise success and reduce extra cues.
ADVICE

Give Simple Stepwise Actions

  • After naming the exercise, state the action in one to three simple steps so students can begin the movement.
  • Then layer concept cues and explain breath to refine performance.
INSIGHT

Cue To Promote Motor Learning

  • Cueing can prioritize motor learning by giving autonomy rather than constant internal corrections.
  • That approach helps clients learn movements for themselves and increases engagement.
