Guidance 2

Verbal Guidance on Performance

Verbal guidance is most commonly used alongside visual guidance. It involves a coach or teacher telling a performer what they are doing well and badly. The coach should point out the most important teaching points of the skill.

Beginners

For beginners, verbal guidance is most effective when given along with visual guidance.
The verbal guidance must be simple and brief.

Elite performers

For elite performers, the verbal guidance can be longer and more complex.
No visual guidance is needed as they are experienced enough to know what the performance should look like.

Manual and Mechanical Guidance on Performance

Manual guidance involves physically moving the performer. Mechanical guidance involves using mechanical aids to help a performer. These types of support allow performers to use a skill that they wouldn't normally be able to do. They are used to show performers the correct technique.

Beginners

For beginners, manual and mechanical guidance are common because it lets them practice the skills safely.

Elite performers

Manual and mechanical guidance is rarely used for elite performers because they can already perform the skill.
