On Saturday it was the MCofS Coaching Symposium at EICA. We had a good turn out and I especially enjoyed Ross's presentation on constraint led coaching and as ever John Kettle's practical session was full of useful reminders. I ran a short fairly ad hoc segment in the afternoon trying to get groups to design client centred coached sessions too.

Towards a more constructivist approach to session design
Sunday be had a meeting of the MCofS FUNdas providers at EICA. This was a good chance to try to ensure we are singing from the same hymn sheet and to share some practical ideas for teaching.

Today I was working for Glenmore Lodge running a FUNdamentals 1 looking at the basics of movement on less than vertical ground, the use of hand and footholds and the importance of understanding Long Term Participant Development to climbing coaches. A great fun day in the new wall and the sun with a keen and varied team.
