Vorsprung coaches, teachers and practitioners employ many of their senses to teach, explain, learn and understand.
Using our senses, fully, we can understand the needs and requirements of the pupil / participant better. We hear imbalances of foot-strike, that, relate to weakness in hips. We see postural imbalances, that, show the body working against gravity. We smell de-hydration and anxiety in the breaths of pupils / participant. Through touch, we are able to understand the levels of neurological communication pathways between the body-and-the-brain and the brain-and-the-body.
From being more tuned-in to our own senses, we can learn about our pupil / participant from conscious to unconscious, from within to without. Learning more about the pupil, listening to them and looking at them, we learn about 'them'. When we do this, we are in a better place to understand what needs to be changed to improve, what can be changed to improve and what should be left alone.
Not only through speech, but, through encouraging pupils / participants to hear and see and smell, we are able to explain. Using our full range of senses, as practitioners, we help pupils / participants to observe themselves through their own senses.
We have found this to be the most valuable tool to explain to people what we do and how we can help them.
Finally, to teach Vorsprung we combine all these senses and methods and allow the pupil / participant to explore, for themselves, how to solve and correct the problems, that, impair their performances through life.
