COACHING RANT ?
ive been looking through our team photos on and off all day + can’t believe how lucky i am to continue coaching drill team. MY DREAM JOB✨
.
the last few years have been such a learning experience for me. the dancers + parents i have worked with will be the first to tell you how imperfect i am. i haven’t always made the right call, or been completely fair. certain experiences where i know i was wrong- still, to this day tear me apart.
.
according to research 50% of athletes confidence is shaped by the environment they are in. passionatecoach says “The climate that you establish as a coach can make or break an athlete’s confidence.” i am a huge part of whether my dancers are confident in themselves + their ability. i always want my kids to feel loved, safe + know i will help them reach their potential. .
i often feel insecure + sometimes even unqualified. i compare myself to other coaches + wish I could be “as good” throughout my coaching experience i have gone through “confidence highs + lows” i think sometimes we all feel that way. we all need an environment where we feel like we’re amazing. where we are capable of anything. And where we have people rooting for our success! i do my best to create that atmosphere to any girl who makes my team. .
coaching has been a blessing + a privilege in my life. i am grateful for the confidence + trust my dancers place in me. this team has something special + im grateful to be apart of it❤️ also S/O to kennedykiaraphoto for making us all feel ?
