Goals of the Program
- Ensure that coaches have a sound foundation of the six pillars of effective training: teaching, seeing, correcting, presence and attitude, group management, and demonstration
- Bridge the gap between obtaining a CF Level 1 and developing your coaching practice
- Encourage participants to observe and learn from the methods and standards of CFSBK, while establishing their own style and voice
- Provide guidance, mentorship, and experience
- Allow participants to make mistakes and have fun as they improve their skills
Prerequisites
- CF Level 1 Training Course
- CF Anatomy Course (online)
- CF Spot the Flaw Course (recommended, not required)
- Participant must review CF Level 1 training manual prior to first session, should be very familiar with the movement models included, and be prepared to teach and correct in that style
Program Details

Curriculum Outline
In this course we will…
- Review foundational movement models/archetypes and their points of performance
- Focus on how to teach, see, and correct movement with one athlete at a time; eventually we will move to coaching multiple athletes
- Develop our skills to teach more complex movements and progressions
- Expand into group management and running an effective (and fun!) class
- Discuss what it means to be a coach and how our presence and attitude has an impact
Course Methods
- Theory: Course leaders will spend time sharing their years of individual experience as well as the established practices and methods of CrossFit South Brooklyn. We’ll look at various aspects of what makes an effective coach and how to create great training sessions and group classes.
- Practical: We will utilize a series of practicals, where course leaders will provide demonstration and examples of the given topic/movement. This includes: movement models, positions and transitions, common faults, effective cues and correction, etc.
- Break Out: In these sections, participants will test out their skills and actively coach their peers. Course leaders will watch, advice, and coach the coaches.

Chas C. says
1 pm w/Lauren, Ro, & Lynsey
Power clean EMOM up to 205#. Was deadlifting the bar up too much. Haven’t gone heavy under time constraints in ages.
Metcon: 2:55 Rx on the bike. Swings unbroken, Jerks 12-8, Bike fast but slowed down a bit at the end b/c I couldn’t quite sustain the pace. Nice case of Fran lung for my troubles. This was right in my wheelhouse; just regret not getting the jerks unbroken.
