For today’s episode, I’m joined by Cal Jones! (@CalJonesJudo)

Cal is a Judo coach from North Wales in the UK and holds both  UKCC level 4 and BJA level 5 coaching certificates.  Cal also also holds a masters degree in advanced coaching practice. 

His final project focused on representative learning design, and he was fortunate enough to be invited to contribute to the UK coaching Coach Learner Framework, discussing Representative Learning Design 

Speaking of the topic, that is what much of our conversation centers on

I’m a huge fan of combat sports and was excited to talk with someone who’s putting Representative Learning design and ecological principles into practice.

I’ve also included some judo videos in the show notes that Cal has sent me including some that use both decontextualized and contextualized training methods to help serve as an extra resource for this episode.

I really enjoyed this conversation w/ Cal. I learned a lot about Judo and I think many of these concepts are transferable if you do you don’t work in combat sports...I hope you enjoy the show!
