Secondly, we should have the ability to arrange movements and master music. The arrangement of actions should follow certain principles, so that the difficulty and intensity of action combination can adapt to the overall ability of students. When choosing actions, we should pay attention to the diversification of actions, and meet the needs of different students by changing the direction, rhythm and influence of actions. When choosing music, you must choose music with strong sense. The speed and rhythm of music should be selected according to the level of students and the characteristics of movements. Fast-paced music is used for running and jumping events and young people, while slow-paced music is used for stretching, mat sports and middle-aged and elderly people.
Third, we should have professional teaching skills. Including teaching demonstration skills, prompting skills, flexible use of various teaching methods and the ability to motivate students.
Excellent aerobics instructors have strong standardized movements, clear routes, obvious rhythms, elegance and generosity, can play a good demonstration role, accurately grasp the demonstration position, skillfully use back demonstration, mirror demonstration and side demonstration according to the characteristics and difficulty of movements, and flexibly complete the mutual conversion between demonstrations in time, so that the whole course is continuous and smooth.
Because aerobics is a kind of hand-foot coordinated movement with various movements, excellent aerobics coaches should be good at using verbal and non-verbal prompts to make students understand the actions and requirements to be done. When using nonverbal prompts, they can indicate the direction of action with clear, powerful and generous gestures, and convey the action requirements with natural and positive expressions.
The flexible use of teaching methods is also one of the essential qualities of aerobics instructors. According to the difficulty and characteristics of movements, different teaching methods are adopted, such as gradual method, circulation method, connection method and rhythm transformation method.
Exercisers can constantly practice and challenge themselves under moderate and high intensity, which partly depends on their own perseverance, and more importantly, the result of aerobics coach's encouragement to students. Good motivation makes students full of self-confidence, and also makes coaches interact with good emotional contagion. An excellent aerobics instructor can help students gain strength and courage in the incentive mechanism and make their mood even higher.
Fourth, we should have rich theoretical knowledge. Aerobics instructors should have certain sports theoretical basis, fitness knowledge and nutrition knowledge. It is necessary to understand the basic structure and function of human body, the influence of exercise on various organs of human body, the mechanism of fatigue and the recovery method. Problems and solutions in sports, knowledge of scientific diet and nutritional balance, etc. Only in this way can we better guide sports practice and make fitness activities scientific and life-oriented.
Fifth, we must have good communication skills and leadership skills. An aerobics instructor should learn to establish a close and harmonious relationship with students from all walks of life, communicate through oral, physical, facial expressions, eyes and other ways, be good at observing, be diligent in summing up, sum up students' opinions and suggestions in time, and give feedback as soon as possible. At the same time, you should also have certain leadership skills.
