BAB Coach Level 1

Muscles Skeletal muscle is the type of muscle that we can see and feel.

Skeletal muscles attach to the skeleton and come in pairs, one muscle to move the bone in one direction and another to move it back the other way.

These muscles usually contract voluntarily, meaning that you think about contracting them and your nervous system tells them to do so.


BAB Coach Level 1

Tendons (elastic)connect muscle tobone

Ligaments (inelastic)connect bone to bone


BAB Coach Level 1

Do I need to know all the names?

We’re Aikido players, not surgeons

Know enough to explain

Don’t use anatomical names for the sake of it, someone will always know better!


BAB Coach Level 1

The Coach

You should recognise that there are different ways of coaching effectively - you may be a “live wire” or the quiet but firm organiser!

Whichever you are, remember that groups will react to the enthusiasm and professionalism you bring to the session rather than to the loudness of your approach.

Remember that, however knowledgeable and enthusiastic you are, the effectiveness of your coaching will depend on good planning, sound practice and excellent communication skills.

Coaching Methods

• Whole – Part – Whole

• Progressive

• Demonstration

BAB Coach Level 1


Whole – Part – Whole

• Demonstrate the whole technique.• Students practice whole technique.• After observation select a common fault.• Correct and Practice only the part of the technique

that was wrong• Once all the students are seen to practice the part

correctly then let them go back to practicing the whole technique again.

BAB Coach Level 1


Progressive • Start off with practising just the body movement of a technique.• Now introduce a partner attacking, along with the body movement.• Introduce the balance breaking part of the technique.• At this point introduce say the hand grip.

The technique is progressively built up by introducing small

components of the technique, as the students grasp them..

This method is very good for teaching beginners or children.

BAB Coach Level 1


BAB Coach Level 1Demonstrations

• They should be done in at least two directions, this is so the students can see clearly the correct movement from either side.

• Show the demonstration at either end of the dojo as well as in the centre, this will ensure that every student is seeing the same thing, that you wish them to do.

Major Demonstration Points• See and be seen.• Communicate at the correct level.• Demonstrations must be technically correct.• Only give one teaching point at a time.• Look the part.

• Children’s bones, tendons, ligaments and muscles are not fully developed and are prone to injury when subjected to excessive force (e.g. weights)

Equity is about fairness, it is about sharing resources so that everyone can have real access to sport, it is about putting the principles of Equal Opportunities into practice.

Sport is the unalienable right of every person and should be kept free of any kind of discrimination on the grounds of religion, race, gender age, political or social status.
