Welcome to our online Coach Education Class: The Effects of Relative Energy Deficiency in Climbing

How this Coach Education Class works
This Coach Education Class will be held on Zoom. It will take 120 minutes and there will be enough time for Q&A at the end. Each Coach Education Class is limited to a small group of people only.
What you won’t get
No fluff — just the good stuff. We only share the proven frameworks and tools that have a track record of results.
No quick fixes. (The mind is a complex infrastructure and doesn't rewire overnight). There are so many different mental aspects to learn about as a coach and becoming mentally stronger is an on-going journey – for both you as a coach and your athletes. This is the start to becoming more aware of what you can do, what impact you have and how to foster both your athletes’ performance, enjoyment and well-being in climbing.
This course is designed to help you better understand your youth team. But learning and hearing about something is something completely different to applying it. The application of what you learn is up to you. We recommend you to reflect yourself on what you have learnt afterwards, so you can better implement your lessons learnt into your every day training.
