Cathy Gauch, director of Aircat Aerial Arts, has been teaching a Nationally Recognized Aerial Teacher Training course for 8 years. This program upholds industry safety standards, providing new instructors with the tools needed to coach with confidence, emphasizing student safety & success. It is designed to equip coaches with a framework with which to teach in addition to providing resources & guidance for continual professional development. Our focus is on the bigger picture of how to teach versus teaching a specific curriculum. Building from individuals’ libraries of known skills, we will apply critical thought to the teaching process and provide a strong foundation for coaching recreational aerial arts. We will comprehensively explore fundamental aspects of aerial coaching such as understanding how your students spatially relate & recognizing their patterns as well as those listed below: 1. Anatomy & injury prevention 2. Risk management 3. Rigging fundamentals 4. Spotting & cueing techniques 5. Mat fall training 6. Classroom management, lesson planning, curriculum 7. Progressions & how to assess 8. Foundations & theory of drops & falls While we have over 30 hours of in person training, there will also be homework between our sessions. We will be primarily focused on aerial silks & vertical apparatus, but will also spend time on horizontal apparatus, including lyra & trapeze. Requirements for a Certificate of Completion include, attending the in person training, passing the final written and practical exams, outside rigging training, First Aid & CPR, Youth Protection Training, Practice teaching hours. Further details will be provided at the training. Who is this training for?
