How to find a good Mountain Bike Skills Coach? #022
Are men or women better at coaching? What to look for in an exceptional MTB Coach? Are racers good/better coaches? Are women or men better at coaching mountain bike skills? Are instructor certifications important and which is the best certification? Are race qualifications an indication for good coaching? Do you need a coach with mind-blowing riding skills? How will you find a coach that fits your riding and learning style? As a full-time MTB coach and an international instructor trainer, certifying coaches for the Bike Instructor Certification Program, I have worked with MANY instructors over the last years. In this episode I share my own and the experiences as an IT and share what an instructor trainer for the PMBIA also shared with me. I also address whether racers are good coaches and what most exceptional riders struggle with most when they become instructors. Also, I share what World Cup racers have told me about coaching and what it does to their skills. (It's not what you think) And give you an indication on what in my opinion REALLY makes a good coach (and what disqualifies coaches). Did you know this podcast is not monetized? In contrast, it actually costs me money and time, as I need to pay for hosting and spend a lot of time researching, recording, editing and publishing it. 😍 If you would like to help me keep doing so, then you can become a Patron and/or buy me coffee here: 🥰 https://www.patreon.com/rideandinspire ☕ https://www.buymeacoffee.com/roxyinspires
