Beginner training plan
Your first lessonAssess goals for training and build a plan. Review basic movements if necessary (bridging, hip escape, etc.) Review basic positions and key details to maintain control in those positions
Lesson 11+Repeat with positions until all basic positions have at least two attacks/escapes that can be performed against light resistance. Discuss competition preparation and mindset if desired
Lesson 4-10Learn attacks and escapes from the specific position. Add additional positions to start working from.
Lesson 2-3Choose a specific position and work offense/defense from there. Review basic ways to get to the ground (pulling guard, arm drags, snap downs, etc.). Develop pathway to specific position
Youth players
Working with teenagersTeenagers are both easier and more difficult to teach: easier because they are very quick learners and are more willing to make mistakes in order to explore techniques, harder because without keeping them engaged the lesson can quickly become less productive. I have a deep, contagious enthusiasm for the sport and the ability to be encouraging but assertive. I can inspire a deep passion for the technical aspects that will ensure the child can outpace their peers while keeping the lesson on track when distractions arise.
