On this week's episode, Coach Jav is joined again by Yuji Suzuki! Yuji joined us during our last episode and in this one, they dive into the topic of deceleration training!

The skill of deceleration is an important one for athletes, but it is traditionally trained in a very decontextualized way. Which is devoid of many of the elements that help skills transfer to the game.

This episode dives into how coaches can train deceleration, in a more contextual way, which can lead to greater transfer to sport.

One quick note before we get started, you may have seen on social media that we at Emergence have announced the dates for the 2024 Sport Movement Skill Conference. This is a hybrid online and in person event and is my favorite event of the year. You have the option of attending for the lectures, the in person coaching or both.

Right now, we are offering our early bird pricing so I would highly suggest you mark tour calendar for October 4th and 5th and take advantage of this sale!
