What is deliberate practice?
If you’ve ever watched the movie Karate Kid and the teachings of Mr. Miyagi, this is what deliberate practice looks like, it is repetitious movements over and over again, then we apply them in a real world scenarios such as skating down the street, and needing to come to a stop or make a turn from forward backwards.
What we’re are doing with deliberate practices is building muscle memory and nuro plasticity, to allow your body to make the functional movements! (with skates on) The skills your will be learing over the next 5 day will help you with:
- be lateral on rollerskates,
- stop on rollerskates
- slow down on rollerskates
- turn corners on rollerskates
- turn around from forward to backwards on rollerskates,
- spin on rollerskates
- Skating on 1 foot, and much more,
All this is accomplished through highly targeted deliberate practices and practice.
