The Hierarchy of Correction. In this video we
discuss the Hierarchy of Correction. It is essentially a simple model martial
arts and self-protection instructors can use to identify and correct the things
that will see the greatest increase in performance for the student. This is not a
hierarchy of instruction (as explained in the video), but a guide for
identifying the things that will yield the greatest improvement in performance
when observing and correcting a student during drills. The video gives a
brief overview of how to approach mindset, strategic considerations, tactical
considerations and technical issues. Each of those elements is obviously a vast
topic in itself and there no way an 18-minute video can address specifics.
However, the framework explored can be a useful way to prioritise those
elements when giving feedback to students. I hope you find this overview
interesting! ---------------------- 2) LEARN TANDOKU
KATA As many of you
know, I have created a solo-pad-drill kata called “Tandoku” (“alone” or “solo”).
The app now contains instructional videos and full footage of the two live
webinars we did on the kata. This week I also added a new video showing all the
applications to the kata sequences! CERTIFICATION: If
you can get footage to me of you performing the kata before the end of the
month, I will post you a signed and stamped certificate of competence (no cost).
The deadline is the 31st of October, so please be sure to get the video
to me before then. I obviously also need your postal address to send the
certificate to. Main Menu > Misc
Techniques and Drills > Solo Training Ideas > Tandoku Kata 2 hours and 50
mins of detailed instruction! ---------------------- 3) MENTAL
STRENGTH AUDIOBOOK The following
chapters are now all available to listen to in the app, with a new one added
each week: App Introduction Introduction Chapter 1: Mental
Strength Chapter 2: Mental
Resistance Chapter 3:
Overload Chapter 4: Consistency Chapter 5: The
Necessity of Discomfort Chapter 6: You Are
What You Think Chapter 7: The
Importance of Action Chapter 8:
Developing Talent Chapter 9 will be
added on Thursday as part of this week’s update! This recoding is
EXCLUSIVE TO THE APP! There has NEVER
been an audio version of the Mental Strength book before. Long story, but on
the back of the book’s success, I was asked to produce a video on the topic of
mental strength. While I do own the full rights for the book, I don’t own the
rights for the video. The owners of the video did take the soundtrack and make
an audiobook from it. However, the original book – which is much longer and
much more detailed – has NEVER been released as an audiobook before. This new
recording is complete and unabridged. LISTEN HERE: Main
Menu > Audio Lessons > Mental Strength Audio Book You can find the
app by searching “iain abernethy” in either the App Store (iPhone / iPad) or
Google Play (Android). If you need help
setting up an account, please email app@iainabernethy.com
and we will get you set up with a free trial. ---------------------- 4) T-SHIRTS ---------------------- 5) LEE TAYLOR
