Skills of becoming a group class coach (aerobic class)
1. Music recognition ability
First of all, you should have a strong ability to recognize and edit music, and have a deep understanding of rhythm, sense of music and melody. It is suggested that junior coaches listen to electronic music and European and American DJs more, and the enhanced drums and beats are easier to identify. Music is the soul of a coach, so it is a skill to master.
2. Coordination ability
Trunk division (head, neck, shoulders, arms, chest, waist, buttocks, knees, ankles, feet) For these parts, the coach can first naturally and smoothly complete the coherent movements of various parts or multiple parts, and can show different styles of movements according to different music, with diverse styles (aerobics, body training, jazz, street dance, Latin). Junior coaches must master physical training and a certain foundation of aerobics.
3. Arrangement ability
In the gym, we will contact various members, and different members have different needs for classes. At present, there are two kinds of group classes in gymnasiums in China (fixed routines and self-made combination routines). The fixed routine is mainly Lemaire course, and the coach can take classes without having to arrange his own movements. The self-made combination routine needs the coach to edit and arrange the music. The latter two tests the professional knowledge of the coach, which has certain challenges and tests for the coach. Beginners are advised to learn fixed routines first, and then try their own combination routines.
4. Interactive teaching
In class, we need to communicate with members through actions and language, so that members can keep up with the coach's rhythm and actions while ensuring the completion of actions, so that the course can be completed in more detail and at a glance. Don't just ensure the progress of the course and ignore the classroom teaching. Communication is a very important link in class. You can learn about your physical condition, study progress and adjust the difficulty of the course in time through communication. Let the members complete the course under your guidance in class.
The above skills and knowledge are the skills that a coach must master. From elementary to advanced, you should complete your professional promotion through a lot of classroom accumulation and member support. Keep in mind the three principles of class: from slow to fast, from simple to complex, from partial to whole, so as to simplify the class.
