Transforming Lives Symposium

September 11th 2019, Skill Acquisition Research Theme Symposium

We had a brilliant symposium. If you missed it, don’t worry, all of the presentations were recorded.

This is Marianne’s presentation ‘Reframing the horse-rider relationship; can a nonlinear pedagogy nurture the magic of equestrian sports?’

This is a link for all of the presentations.


Marianne Davies' coaching experience includes more than 20 years of working in sports, academic and corporate environments. She is a coach educator, assessor and national trainer. Marianne spent eight years in the role of Coaching Manager for Canoe Wales and before that was responsible for participation development. Marianne worked for many years as a full-time senior adventure sports coach during which time she was responsible for the design and delivery of a two-year practical-based module for a Sports Science & Outdoor Education degree course at Bangor University. 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

This is a super episode. Rob skilfully describes strong anticipation from an ecological perspective. For me, the concepts really resonate with the perceptual motor skill of riding in equestrian sports, as well as many other adventure sports where there is strong coupling, particularly to a (rhythmic) environment.
