My story
Everything changed for me at the end of 2008 when I moved from San Francisco to Basel to join the launch of the Swiss Kindersport Program.
I was teaching youth sports and camps around the world, living like most coaches, teaching sport-specific classes struggling to come up with new ideas to keep my classes interesting at all times.
Despite experimenting constantly I was coaching too ‘sport-specific in my classes, instead of more ‘well-rounded’ including all motor skills.
I loved my job and the focus of building it, but I was tired of trying to come up with new ideas as well as keeping it all in my head, in every possible way.
Going into 2009 I got involved as a lead educator for Swiss Kindersport, a youth sports program for 5-10-year-olds just being launched to fight rising obesity and sedentary lifestyles.
Not only has this research-based program been a massive success with exactly 141,093 children age 5-10 participating and 16,612 coaches being trained in 2015, but the program is also based on teaching a wide variety of motor skills at a young age for optimal learning.
I completely shifted my attitude (something that’s required!) delving into libraries, youtube like a madman to get ideas for games and drills to improve my lesson plans. Since then I’ve not only totally changed the way I run my sports classes, incorporating all aspects of motor skills into my curriculums but I also started to record all my ideas and those of other coaches who are the best in their fields.
Constantly stressed about planning the next class and seeing a massive influx of inquiries/interest to my programs I started to build my own curriculums.
By late September 2016, I achieved my goal of putting together a complete system for teaching physical education to kindergarten age children and help more coaches launch their own program.
So can you.
