He also shares strategies for communicating these innovative methods to parents, emphasizing long-term growth over immediate wins. Key Topics Discussed: ✅ Transitioning from traditional drills to game-based, small-area practices ✅ Using incentives in practice to promote passing, neutral zone play, and overall game sense ✅ Achieving lasting behavior change even when incentives are removed ✅ Communicating coaching methods effectively with parents to build patience and long-term vision ✅ Identifying an athlete’s challenge point through observation and guided discovery ✅ Fostering autonomy and adaptability in young hockey players ✅ Leveraging analogies from Nick Winkelman’s book, The Language of Coaching, to simplify coaching concepts Resources & Mentions: 📌 Connect with Jim Haverstrom on Twitter: @JimHaverstrom 📌 Learn more about innovative coaching techniques with USA Hockey resources 📌 Recommended Book: The Language of Coaching by Nick Winkelman 📌 Explore additional insights at The Adaptable Athlete Podcast website If you like today's episode, leave a review here. ...If you want to reach me directly, contact me on social media or shoot me @javier@emergentmvmt.com.

Send us a text In this episode, Javi sits down with Marianne Davies to explore a fascinating blend of topics, from adventure sports and ecological coaching to the power of language and learning. They dive into how language shapes perception, the unique relationship between teaching and learning, and the role of affordance perception in high-risk environments. Marianne shares her experiences in equestrian sports, adventure coaching, and expedition leadership, emphasizing how outdoor challenges can reshape the way we think, learn, and coach—not just in sports, but in life. They discuss the importance of exploration for both kids and adults, the evolving landscape of coach education, and why less structure in training could unlock greater potential in athletes. Key Topics Discussed: ✅ How language serves as a constraint and shapes perception ✅ The Welsh concept of “dusky” and how it connects teaching and learning ✅ How adventure sports develop skill and decision-making under real consequences ✅ The unstructured nature of adventure sports vs. traditional coaching ✅ Why adults need adventure experiences just as much as kids ✅ The role of affordance perception and risk in skill acquisition ✅ The future of coach development and shifting from assessment-based coaching ✅ The power of movement and perception beyond traditional sports Resources & Mentions: 📌 Marianne’s Podcast: River Tiger Podcast 📌 Marianne’s Website: Dynamics Coaching 📌 Follow Marianne on X (Twitter): @marianne_D1 📌 Follow Marianne on Instagram: @river.tiger 📌 Recommended Films: Valley Uprising (climbing culture) & Riding Giants (big wave surfing) 📌 The Cynefin Framework (for understanding complex problems) If you like today's episode, leave a review here. ...If you want to reach me directly, contact me on social media or shoot me @javier@emergentmvmt.com.
