The practice principles of a constraints-led approach

The four principles of a CLA

This is a short introduction that I put together for the Connected Equestrian Coaches conference.

Constraints Led Approaches to Coaching for Equestrian Sports

Principle 1 – Session intention
Horses out hacking

Principle 2 – Constrain to afford (self-organisation)

Principle 3 – Representative design

Horse and rider showjumping — Mia Palles-Clark jumping the gorgeous Mous

Principle 4 – Functional variability

Marianne spent eight years in the role of Coaching Manager for Canoe Wales and before that was responsible for participation development.

As well as training and assessing other coaches. In this conversation we discuss... - How to use constraints in the sport of canoeing - An ecological approach to equestrian sports - How to facilitate learning that is in the 'ugly zone' This is a great conversation, I hope you enjoy. https://pca.st/2hck2akk - https://www.spreaker.com/user/9625186/marianne-davies
